Welcome back listeners!We have a great episode for you this week which highlights the amazing changes to reform in the USA but also the hauntings in a very historic site.Nestled in the heart of Chicago's Near West Side, Hull House stands as a testament to social reform and a beacon for the supernatural. Established in 1889 by Jane Addams and Ellen Gates Starr, this historic settlement house provided refuge and support to immigrants and the underprivileged. However, beyond its philanthropic mission, Hull House has garnered a reputation as one of Chicago's most haunted locations, captivating the imaginations of locals and visitors alike.Among the myriad of ghostly tales, the legend of the "Devil Baby" stands out. In 1913, stories emerged of a deformed infant with pointed ears, scales, and a tail, allegedly born to a local woman and hidden within Hull House. Despite Jane Addams' efforts to dispel the myth, throngs of curious onlookers flocked to the house, hoping to catch a glimpse of the infamous child. This tale, deeply rooted in cultural and religious tensions of the time, continues to intrigue and unsettle.Beyond the Devil Baby, Hull House is rife with reports of paranormal activity. Visitors and staff have recounted sightings of a "Lady in White," believed to be the spirit of Millicent Hull, the original owner's wife who died in the house. Others have reported unexplained footsteps, cold spots, and apparitions of children playing in the courtyard. These enduring legends contribute to Hull House's status as a focal point for ghost tours and paranormal investigations in Chicago. Join us in this episode as we delve into the eerie history of Hull House, exploring the intersection of social activism and the supernatural.
