What Happened at Bachelor's Grove Cemetery (Not what you think)

America's most haunted cemetery isn't haunted by ghosts. Bachelor's Grove Cemetery — one acre, 80 or so graves, tucked into Rubio Woods Forest Preserve 25 miles south of Chicago — is called the most haunted place in the Midwest. The woman in white. The vanishing farmhouse. The phantom lights over the pond. The Prohibition-era gangster dumping ground. This is the story of how a settlement becomes a forest, how a cemetery becomes an orphan, and why the real haunting at Bachelor's Grove has nothing to do with spirits.
