4 haunted and historic destinations in Wisconsin.
Appleton, WI
The Appleton Curling Club was established in 1939 and relocated to its present facility on Westhill Boulevard in January 1960. In 1967, fire damaged the clubhouse but did not destroy the ice rink or compressor room, necessitating rebuilding of the spectators' area.
Oak Creek, WI
Bender Park in Oak Creek overlooks Lake Michigan, offering recreational access to the shoreline. The park's location on cliffs above the beach creates natural hazard conditions. The surrounding roads—particularly Fitzsimmons Road and E. Oakwood Road—have acquired dark reputations from multiple tragedies.
Genoa, WI
Big River Inn dates to either 1879 or 1896 (sources vary) in Genoa, Wisconsin. The building originally functioned as a restaurant before evolving into a combined inn and restaurant. It now operates as Water View Inn, maintaining its paranormal reputation while serving contemporary hospitality functions.
Burlington, WI
Burlington Public Cemetery serves as the primary burial ground for Burlington, Wisconsin. Behind the main cemetery lies an older pioneer cemetery approximately 40 years removed from public consciousness, containing the remains of early Burlington settlers and their families.
