Customer Reviews

Adam's Book was just as enjoyable as a Weird Chicago Tour!

I have been on a few Weird Chicago ghost tours since I have moved to Chicago, and it is the most interesting tour by far that Chicago has to offer. After hearing Adam's story telling skills on the tour, I had to check out his book, and couldn't put it down. I especially think anyone that is a Chicago resident and likes a good ghost story would love this book!

Humorous and Realistic

This is a humorous account of his journeys as a ghost tour guide. I liked that the author spoke of encounters he had of the ghostly kind but still remained skeptical. Ghost hunters generally take themselves too seriously and I am glad that Adam does not. I enjoyed this book a lot!
