These are strange events, people, places, objects, and ideas that especially interest me. I don't necessarily like them (some of them are about murder, for example), and I'm skeptical of a lot of them, but I'm interested in my reactions to them and in the issues they involve.

This list is for historical and fringe science weirdness. Philosophical and religious weirdness and strange fiction will go in other lists.

Spirit beings

Ghosts

Country House Restaurant in Clarendon Hills

A local haunting. Chicagoland doesn't seem to have many.
