What a fun experience to learn some of the spooky history under Chicago! Our tour guide Katie did a great job with the story telling and leading us on a spooky adventure! Her insight and how she viewed each story was riveting! Being able to check out new bars that I probably wouldn't wander into myself was a fun experience! 10/10 would recommend, and hopefully you get Katie as your guide!
