Here is the second installment of my miniseries on John Dillinger. A slight diversion. This was a visit to a former brewery connected allegedly to Al Capone and the mob with no direct link to Dillinger - but nevertheless, an interesting facet of contemporary American crime history in the town of Thornton, Illinois. The building dates from 1857 and has many interesting stories. Particularly the ghost of the nightwatchman, a Mr Hunt! Join us, as we investigate a limestone aquifer chamber that has been reported as being notoriously haunted. Afterwards we head upcountry to Little Bohemia Lodge, in Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin. This was the location of Dillinger`s notorious shootout with the Feds, and from where he escaped being killed later on betrayal outside the Biograph Theater, in Chicago - which is included in this paranormal documentary

HOUR TWO: More than a hundred years ago, reports described it as “the most weird and gruesome apartment in the world.” Why display an entire room full of grotesque items and open it to the public? (New York Charnel House) *** Kell’s Irish Pub in Seattle has a creepy vibe to it, even if the displays and decorations inside aren’t meant to be. Perhaps that’s because the building started its life as a massive mortuary. (The Beaux Arts Butterworth Building) *** Early one February morning in 1897, John Mars jumped out of bed from a sound sleep, and while the smell of breakfast cooking downstairs wafted up to the second level of the house, he inexplicably grabbed his pistol and went on a shooting spree of his own family.

Be aware, and beware, because sometimes the silence is the most terrifying thing.

In 1634, a French court convicted a priest of witchcraft using a literal signed contract from Hell — complete with demon signatures, a mirror-Latin clause, and Satan's own personal secretary as a witness. It's one of the strangest pieces of "evidence" ever entered into a legal record. But the pact isn't where this story starts. It starts with a rejection letter, a recurring dream, and a convent prioress whose private heartbreak got weaponized by men with far bigger agendas — a rival priest, a political enemy, and Cardinal Richelieu himself. This episode follows the forged pact, the torture, and the execution of Father Urbain Grandier — and the two people history left out of the headline: the exorcist who volunteered to absorb the possession himself and lost two decades of his sanity for it, and the woman who walked away with a queen's audience and a gold reliquary. No demons required. Just paperwork, power, and one very
