Summary

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!

In the heart of Rock Island, Illinois, an old building once known as the local YMCA has been transformed into a furniture store. However, beneath its new facade lies a history steeped in eerie encounters and paranormal activity. For decades, this building served as a community hub, offering recreation and comfort—but over time, whispers of hauntings began to surface. From shadowy figures darting through rooms to unsettling sounds in the stairwell, the former YMCA is a place where the past and paranormal collide. In this episode, we explore the chilling reports of ghostly footsteps, EVP recordings of terrifying screams, and the spirits that still linger in the building’s classrooms and storage areas. Could this former gathering place still hold onto the memories—and souls—of its past?

On this episode of The Grave Talks, a conversation about the Haunted Rock Island Roadhouse with Kandi Slater, Event Coordinator.
