Question: Hey Scott, Do you have any Mundelein-specific ghost stories or links to any? Thanks, Craig
Response from Scott Markus: Craig, amazingly, I don’t know too much about Mundelein ghost stories. Certainly there are tons of amazing stories nearby in Cuba Road and the Gate in Libertyville. Outside of a couple of haunted houses, I don’t know of a single haunted site in Mundelein except for one – The Mundelein Seminary.
In the late ’90s I heard from a security guard that patrols the grounds that there’s a lot of paranormal activity on the site. However, being currently employed by the seminary, it was like pulling teeth to get him to say even that much. He did not get into specifics.
In winter of ’09 I stayed the night at the Seminary with Ursula Bielski. We conducted a couple of investigations and got some very strong responses. However, I would like to conduct another investigation to know exactly what we were dealing with. I will say that we believed two different entities, one a nun and the other a priest, communicated with us and neither were negative.
Do you have any Mundelein ghost stories of your own?
Also, are you in Illinois at the moment? I will be there from Thursday to Oct 10 for the Chicago Ghost Conference and the Chicago Horror Film Fest.
