For nearly a century, drivers along Archer Avenue have told the same chilling story: a young woman in a white dress hails a ride, only to vanish at the gates of Resurrection Cemetery. Known as Resurrection Mary, she’s Chicago’s most enduring ghost. In this episode, we trace her origins in the 1930s dance halls, explore eyewitness accounts from cab drivers and locals, and uncover why her legend still haunts the city today.
