Haunted Green Bay, Ep. 454

Posted on September 29, 2022 by History Goes Bump Posted in Haunted Location .

When people hear the name Green Bay, they probably imagine people in football jersies with large triangles of fake cheese atop their heads. The city is so much more than just a hub for football even though it is nicknamed “Titletown.” This is a city influenced by many cultures from the early Native Americans that were here first to the French to the British to the Dutch to the Irish and to the Belgians. Their burial places and businesses and homes all seem to be touched by an essence of the supernatural. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Moment in Oddity was suggested by John Michaels and features cremains on the moon and This Month in History features the birth of Walter Reed.

Posted on May 26, 2022 by History Goes Bump Posted in Haunted Location .

The Pfister Hotel sits three blocks from Lake Michigan in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and once advertised itself as the only fireproof hotel in the city.

This started as the dream of one man and was completed by his children. Today, guests can experience a lavish stay and perhaps even a few bumps and creaks in the night. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of the Pfister Hotel! The Moment in Oddity features Lady Wonder the Psychic Horse and This Moment in History features The Ra II Expedition. Our locations was suggested by listener Brad Brancel.
