About this episode

Minnesota’s past is filled with stories that refuse to stay buried. In this episode, we explore four of the state’s most storied and haunted landmarks: the Minnesota State Capitol, the Kahler Grand Hotel, Split Rock Lighthouse, and the Wabasha Street Caves.

We trace the documented history behind tales of phantom politicians, mysterious hotel encounters, a lighthouse keeper who may still be on duty, and gangsters whose underground party never quite ended. Along the way, we consider where the historical record ends and where the ghost stories begin.
