"After finding my soon-to-be ex-husband with my soon-to-be ex-assistant, I realize his "for better or worse" didn't include my forties. A vacation on a remote Italian island sounds like the perfect antidote to a midlife crisis--until I arrive. I'm expecting Chianti and pasta, not a run-down bed and breakfast with the oldest Nonna in existence. There's something odd about this island, like how everyone calls me Mamma, or how I'm the first tourist in decades. And that's before I wake up to a talking chipmunk holding a glass of wine. He says I have something ancient in me, and for once, it's not my creaking joints. When I finally discover the island's deepest secrets, I know my forties are about to be fabulous, if only I can survive long enought to enjoy them." --

Behind the crumbling walls, under the ancient bricks and the nearly forgotten streetcar tracks, the ghosts of Chicago live on. From Resurrection Mary and Al Capone to the Murder Castle of H. H. Holmes and the funeral train of Abraham Lincoln, the spine-tingling sights and sounds of Chicago's yesteryear are still with us...and so are its ghosts. Seeking to find out what we really know about the ghastly past of this famously haunted metropolis, professional ghost hunter and historian Adam Selzer pieces together the truth behind Chicago's ghosts, and brings to light dozens of never-before-told firsthand accounts. Take a historical tour of the famous and not-so-famous haunts around town, from the Alley of Death and Mutilation to Satan's Mile and beyond.
