  • Austin Jenks Home: This house was one of the first in all the Midwest to be lit up with electricity in 1886. But did its original owner steamboat captain Austin Jenks love the place so much he decided to stick around, even after death?
  • Luna Rossa/Bootlegger Caves: In the 1940s, they set up a “haunted house” in the cave here, but things got a little too real when strange apparitions started appearing who weren’t on the schedule of attractions.
