Program Description

Event Details

 In the fall of 2018, author and historian Ursula Bielski and her team of specially selected veteran ghost hunters conducted the first-ever authorized paranormal investigations of the Old Joliet Prison--one of the world's most notorious penitentiaries. Learn of the ghosts Ursula and her team discovered during their dozens of investigations of the prison, just part of this spooky look at the ghosts of Southwest Chicago, from the legend of Grey-Haired Baby to the phantom monks of St. James at Sag Bridge, to haunted Bachelors Grove and the legendary hitchhiker, Resurrection Mary.
