One of the haunted places I visited and wrote about in my book, Ghosthunting Illinois, was Widow McCleary’s Pub in Thornton. There, several members of the staff have seen billiard balls move in impossible directions on the floor, as they are played with by a little girl ghost. It is also possible that the ghosts of some of Al Capone’s victims may be roaming the pub. Has anyone had the chance to visit McCleary’s? Has anyone seen a ghost there?

Found a little write up on the place. My husband and I should be traveling south soon. If McCleary's isn't too far off route, perhaps we will check it out. If there is any thing there, and I have a camera in my hand, it will manifest.

And for Judy, if you get there (it's the Chicgao metro area) I hope you do take pictures.

I'm a little confused. You can make ghosts manifest?

No. I do not believe so. I can't "make" any thing do any thing, and neither can you. About the best way I can reason my experience is that there is a connection between me and the spirit world via the camera. The camera is my medium, and if there is any sort of camera in my hand, and spirit energy is present, it will show up in my shots. Another words, I am what might be refered to as a pyschic photographer. When a encounter occurs it seems to be a interaction more so on the part of the energy than by my will. I don't know how or why this phenomena occurs through me. I simply accept that it does.
No doubt I expect arguement by you or others against my claim, for which I am willing to respond as best as I can to questions; but I am not very interested in debate or convincing or proving, so I won't indulge a agruement. It does sound incredible, and I don't understand it my self. It simply is.

There have been no reported apparitions at McCleary's, only the movements of objects.
