there was a case of a UFO-like incident in Chicago in the late 1890s about
rumors of sightings of airships
the sausage king of Chicago was accused of killing his wife and using her
body as part of his livelihood; as u can imagine people didn't eat alot of
his product in the city
the opening of a famous observatory right over the border in Wisconsin
dracula was published in 1897
