Valentine's Day means chocolates, flowers, diamonds, and...ghosts? In Chicago, February 14th conjures up much more than champagne spirits.  In fact, the ghosts of love and crime populate some of the city's most infamous supernatural stories. From the ghost called Resurrection Mary (a dancing date gone very bad indeed), the phantoms of the ill-fated marriages of the "Sausage Vat Murderer" and H.H. Holmes’ The Devil in the White City, to the restless specters of Chicago gangland, such as John Dillinger, Bugs Moran, and the victims of Al Capone's well-known "St. Valentine’s Day Massacre". Historian, folklorist, and paranormal researcher Ursula Bielski (author of twelve books on America's haunted history) introduces you to the supernatural side of Valentine's Day, Chicago style!
