It's New To Us: Haunted Archer Avenue Paranormal Tour iPhone App

By Chuck Sudo in Miscellaneous on Nov 11, 2010 5:00PM

Resurrection Mary is by far Chicago's best-known ghost story. We've traveled Archer Avenue around the Willowbrook Ballroom on Halloween, in the dead of winter, even riding a Schwinn, in the hopes that Mary wanted to mount the sissy bar for a lift.

Paranormal expert Edward Shanahan has put together a haunted tour of Archer Avenue that is part of a free iPhone app by GeoTrio Tours. The app uses GPS and maps as Shanahan narrates a course through Archer and all points of interest for Resurrection Mary and other paranormal activity.

Did we mention the app is free?
