Dead Soldiers, Vintage, and Automobiles
My latest book on Volo and Lake County about the pioneers of Volo and now the stories of Native Americans and mysterious Mound Builders and massacres in Lake County from long ago. So much more including the bones of giants found all over Lake County, Illinois. More to come on all of this.

Haunting in Antioch
I visited the town of Antioch and went to a Ghost Hunt/Lecture at the Lodge. We did have some results. Here is a video I took.
Antioch was also inhabited by the Pottawatomi Indians who were nomadic and living in teepees Route 173 was an Indian trail. After settlers came and brought the railroad with them, the town became a tourist town. Hotels and restaurants sprang up.
But life wasn't that easy for the pioneers and fire destroyed much of the downtown for multiple years including 1891, 1903, 1904, and 1905. Each time, the town was rebuilt.
Antioch is also the name for an ancient city in Greece just like Volo, Illinois is as well.
