🚗Just 2 hours from Chicago, you'll find @discoverwhitewater , that's earned the name "Second Salem" from it's spooky lore- a history of witches, hauntings, and a school that tried to connect with the spirit world. 👻While there are a few more local legends we didn't touch on here, the spots listed are all doable as a day trip from Chicago.  Besides the cemetery, they're all within a 10-15 minute walk from each other! 🧙‍♀️Believe in the tales?  Add the witch emoji to the comments, and be sure to follow 🌟 @biglittleescapes 🌟 for more family fun adventures! @walcowi @travelwisconsin #familytravel #halloweentour #wisconsin #wisconsincreator #chicagocreator , road trip, family vacation, things to do with kids, spooky Town,
