On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the harrowing tale of the Iroquois Theater fire of 1903, a catastrophe that claimed over 600 lives and left an indelible mark on Chicago's history. We'll explore the events leading up to that fateful day, the aftermath, and the subsequent reports of paranormal activity that have persisted for over a century.

Join us as we delve into eyewitness accounts, examine the psychological and environmental factors at play, and consider the theories that attempt to explain the unexplained. Is the James M. Nederlander Theatre truly haunted by the spirits of those who perished, or are there more earthly explanations for the phenomena reported?
