Information on Bachelor's Grove Cemetery |
|
190 North visits Bachelor's Grove cemetery, reputedly the most haunted
graveyard in the Chicago area. Paranormal investigators test for
spirits and explain the latest theories regarding the existence
and nature of ghosts.
The Office of Paranormal Investigations does not charge for its
services, so the group tries to be selective in choosing potential
hauntings for extensive study. The ghost hunters also simply look
for evidence of paranormal activity, rather than serve as "Ghostbusters"
to rid a site of ghosts.
