Experience The Haunted History Of Illinois This Fall

The state of Illinois is famous for lots of things, but there is something that flies under the radar, and you can find a lot of them, and that's ghosts.

Popular Ghost Tours In Illinois During October

Fall is by far my favorite season. I enjoy the cooler temperatures, or what I like to call hoodie weather. There's football, apple orchards, and so many fun things to do for the whole family. Of course, you can't forget about Halloween.

I've been lucky enough to have been invited on a couple of ghost hunts in my life. At first, I really didn't believe. Now that I've been on a couple of paranormal investigations, my attitude has changed. I definitely recommend checking one out.

According to Patch...

Fall is brisk for boos, and ghost tour companies are revving up for their busiest season, from the river towns and prairie to the city with big shoulders, Illinois is full of ghosts bumping into each other.

Each touring company offers its own unique interpretation of Illinois’ local haunts, including historical perspectives, storytelling, and opportunities to do your own paranormal investigations — scarier than a Netflix true crime documentary.

You may even find yourself part of a YouTube video or podcast.
