"This isn't your average travel book -- and these aren't your average tourist destinations! Take a wild ride through hidden Windy City history -- often dark, sometimes inexplicable, and occasionally glamorous. Meet the gangsters, ghosts, serial killers and celebrities that only Chicago could produce. This journey into eclectic Chicago lore includes : 19 spine-tingling creepy sites (Resurrection Mary, Lonely Ghost of Lake Forest, St. Rita's and so many more) ; all things Al Capone (seven notable Scarface sites and the St. Valentine's Day Massacre) ; other Outfit bigshot hangouts, graves and hit locations ; Monsters of the Midway like Holmes, Gacy, Speck and more ; murder and mayhem featuring 12 killers ; and literally dozens of celebrity homes and hangouts from downtown to the suburbs and beyond!" --
