Was it a trick? Oh, it’s definitely a treat! The ghouls are back and somehow deader than ever! If we’ve said it once, we’ve said it a thousand times, in unison! This week, we’re getting real local as we dig into the lore of The Elgin Metal Casket Company and the ever mysterious Lake Michigan Triangle, where boats, captains, but apparently not Christmas trees, all go missing. So grab your snacks, a hot cup of pumpkin spice, and settle in for some much needed Ghoul Beans!
