Richmond Haunts long-form
Haunted Wisconsin: Peshtigo, Summerwind and Holy Hill
Episode notes
About this episode
| Wisconsin’s haunted history reaches from the site of a devastating nineteenth-century fire to music venues, private homes, rural roads and the ruins of a famously troubled mansion. This episode travels through ten locations and cases, pairing each supernatural tradition with the people and events that gave it a local setting.
The journey begins with stories involving Walter Schroeder, the Peshtigo Fire Museum and Cemetery, and The Rave in Milwaukee. It continues to the Witherell House in Fond du Lac, Jay Road near Boltonville, Maribel Caves Hotel and the Mirrored Foote Mansion in Eureka. Summerwind Mansion in Land O’ Lakes, the mysteries of Holy Hill and Tally Ho Pub & Grill in Erin complete the program. Fires, abandoned properties, religious landscapes and neighborhood testimony all shape these accounts differently. The episode preserves those distinctions instead of presenting every story as the same kind of haunting. |
