Lincoln Park Zoo Was Built On A Cemetery
Not many people suspect a zoo to be haunted. But in Chicago, Illinois, that’s common knowledge. In the 1800s, the Lincoln Park Zoo was once a cemetery. Relatives were warned to move their relatives before the zoo was built, but rumor has it that 10,000 graves remained. Some people believe that the zoo is a literal burial ground.
Many ghosts are reported to stalk the Lincoln Park Zoo. The most famous is John Dillinger, a bank robber from the 1930s that allegedly stumbles down the pavement. The ghost of a Victorian lady is said to wander around the Lion House.
The Wild West Legends Of The Bird Cage Theater
Tombstone, Arizona is the home of many Wild West legends. But its most haunted location is the Bird Cage Theater. Between 1881 and 1889, it was known as one of the wickedest places in Arizona. Ladies would perform in hanging “birdcages” from the ceiling.
If you go there today, you’ll see 140 bullet holes dotting the walls. Many gunfights broke out there, which makes people believe that it’s haunted. When the theater briefly reopened in 1934, visitors reported paranormal phenomena there. Even today, tourists claim to see spirits and hear music playing from an unknown source.
