These tales from the state of Wisconsin may be real, or they may be folk tales, but some of them date back to our earliest European settlers, others reach even further back. All of them are connected with the geography and history of their Wisconsin location. Things that go bump in the night, disembodied voices, footsteps in an empty stairwell, an icy hand on your shoulder...let your imagination run wild as you read about Wisconsin's most extraordinary apparitions, sinister spooks, and bizarre beasts. You may know of Lotta Morgan, Ghostly Lady of the Evening, but perhaps you haven't heard about: A man driven crazy at the Summerwind Mansion after finding a mummified corpse in a drawer. The phantom acapella music of the Lost Spirits of Coolidge. The flying manbat known as mothman of LaCrosse. The mythical haunchies of Haunchyland who hung a man for discovering their underground tunnel system. 941 $a 2 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630015242.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20210902010803.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=164D1BD40BB311EC90E870E940ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
