In Portage, the past is present in the strangest ways.
Every night at 8:15 p.m., a homeowner watched a transparent man wearing a stovepipe hat and carrying a suitcase walk through her living room. A child playing with a dowsing rod in her grandmother's house communicated with the spirit of a boy lingering in the attic. A young lady looking at an old, empty house saw an old woman move a curtain and peek at her, but when she blinked, the curtain and the old woman were gone.
Shelley Mordini, founder of Baraboo Tours and coauthor of Haunted Baraboo, and Sharon Hart Addy share these and other spine-tingling stories from Where the North Begins.
