Information on Indiana Ghost Trekkers |
There are a number of places that make the claim of being the "most
haunted"- New York's Amityville House, the Tower of London and Maryland's
Blair Witch. But, based on what Doug Banks found with the Indiana
Ghost Trackers, Chicago must come out far ahead of all the others!
The "Trackers" gave Doug a real scare in "Death Alley" behind the
Oriental Theatre and at Excalibur nightclub!
