Rediscover Cleveland''s Forgotten Hauntings
Hiding in obscure corners and in plain sight, chilling tales from Cleveland''s paranormal past await reawakening. A tale from 1840 places the city''s first haunted house on the windswept commons south of town. Hanged murderers were said to roam the corridors of the Old County Jail, and t he 1885 disinterment of the old Cleveland Medical College graveyard led to reports of nocturnal phantoms throughout the excavation. With the construction of Bulkley Boulevard in 1912, many West Side homes were demolished. Also destroyed was the entrance to what neighbors menacingly called The Cave of Apparitions.
Take a step back in time with author and investigative historian William G. Krejci on this journey through Cleveland''s long lost ghostly past.
