4. Chicago, Illinois
Thanks to its famous great fire and history of gangsters and underworld criminals like Al Capone, Chicago has developed quite a reputation for being haunted. The city has a number of well known ghost stories that are whispered among the locals each Halloween, and perhaps none is more famous that the story of Resurrection Mary. As the story goes, Mary was a young girl who was hit and killed by a car while leaving a dance hall with her boyfriend. She was buried in nearby Resurrection Cemetery, and ever since she can be periodically seen wandering the streets in her white burial dress, still trying to find her way back home. Another famous story concerns what has come to be known as the “Devil Baby of Hull House,” a child born with scaly skin and a pointed tail who supposedly haunts the house once owned by famed activist Jane Addams.
四、芝加哥,伊利諾斯州
芝加哥發展出鬧鬼的名聲,要歸功于它那場著名的大火,以及黑幫和艾爾·卡彭。這種黑幫匪徒的歷史。每個萬圣節總在當地人嘴里念叨的鬼故事不計其數,其中沒有比復活瑪麗更廣為人知的了。故事是這樣的,瑪麗是一個年輕女孩,一次在和男朋友離開舞會時被車撞死了。她被埋在復活公墓附近,從那之后,就常見她定期地出現在街上,身著她下葬時的衣服,試圖找到她回家的路。另一個著名的故事是關于一個后來被稱作“赫爾大廈惡嬰”的嬰兒,他肌膚天生長有鱗片,還長有突出的尾巴,據說這個嬰兒的魂魄在這座曾被著名激進主義分子珍·亞當斯擁有的房子里。
Most Haunted Place: Bachelor’s Grove Cemetery
Rumored to be one of the prohibition-era gangsters’ favorite places to dump bodies, Bachelor’s Grove is an old and decaying burial ground that has been the site of countless stories about ghosts, spirits, and devil worship. Several headstones in the cemetery seem to move at will, and many claim that the spirits of the dead often materialize and walk the grounds at night. The most famous of these is the “White Lady,” the ghost of a young woman who is always seen in a white dress, often cradling a baby in her arms.
最恐怖之地:單身漢樹林公墓
單身漢樹林是一個古老而腐壞的墳地,謠傳是黑幫最愛的扔尸體的禁地之一。這里一直都是無數鬼魂、幽靈和魔鬼崇拜故事的發源地。墓地的幾個墓碑似乎可以自行移動,許多人稱曾見過死者的靈魂在夜晚顯形并在地面行走。其中最出名的是“白衣女士”,一個總是穿著白色連衣裙的年輕女人,胳膊里搖著一個嬰兒。
