Full description

In 1994, a true American hero, Walter Payton, visited the decaying Roundhouse. Navigating through rubble, trash, discarded needles, and rusted rails, he fell in love with the old wreck. Restoration began on March 17, 1995, and by March 21, 1996, it opened as Walter Payton's Roundhouse Complex. Soon after, employees began to experience strange phenomena, leading to tales of hauntings. Now, you get to be the ghost hunter! Join our paranormal investigations and haunted history tours to explore this beautifully restored historic building for yourself. This 1.5-hour, lantern-guided ghost tour inside Aurora’s Two Brothers Roundhouse is hosted by Diane Ladley, “America’s Ghost Storyteller,” and includes an opportunity for guests to participate in a paranormal investigation in an attempt to determine if there is indeed life AFTER the end of the line in Aurora, Illinois. Please note: Some of the stories can get graphic, so if you get scared easily, be prepared!
