ADAM SELZER'S TOURS ARE PHENOMENAL!

YOUR GUIDE: Adam Selzer has been an historian and tour guide in the city for more than a decade, with more than 2,000 ghost tours and several hundred architectural boat tours to his credit. He is the author of Mysterious Chicago, H.H. Holmes: The True History of the White City Devil , Ghosts of Chicago, and the just released Graceland Cemetery book!. He has appeared in several several documentaries and TV shows and his research has been featured in print. His tours are utterly hilarious, ridiculously informative, and endlessly fascinating.
