Haunted Theatres: The Auditorium in Chicago, IL

Since it's a holiday week we didn't want to dive into anything TOO dark for this one, but have no fear - this episode still involves plenty of mystery and spook. Kate kicks off a new series of haunted theatres with the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago, IL. It first opened in 1889, then eventually fell into disrepair, but was restored decades later as part of Roosevelt University. It even obtained National Historic Landmark status in the mid-1970s. However, as with any building that is old AF and just happens to be built upon land where a bunch of people died, the Auditorium has certainly seen its share of uninvited guests.
