Haunted Toledo
Discover the ghostly lore of Glass City
The city of Toledo is rich in tradition and history, including a lively collection of spooky tales and odd occurrences. A murdered maid and a bashful child are but two of numerous restless spirits roaming the notoriously haunted Oliver House. The nuns of St. Ursula's Academy, now the Collingwood Arts Center, tend the campus in death as they did in life. Supernatural events at the Toledo Yacht Club may be explained by its little-known history. Employees of the Toledo Zoo have reported strange things after hours, and the Franklin Park Mall, the airport, and even a Rite-Aid have their own chilling stories.
Pinpointing fifty locations across the city, paranormal expert Chris Bores uncovers Toledo's haunted history.

Read this in the line at CVS to pick up my prescription because it was on an end cap and the line took 17 years but this got me through

Book 50 of 2025 was Haunted Toledo by Chris Bores. This was this months @toledolibrary Books on Tap book club pick. I haven’t been to a meetup in a few months but I am so excited to go to this one this month since the author will be there to talk to too.
The last Haunted America book I read (Haunted Put in Bay) was not good so I was a little nervous about this one. However, I was pleasantly surprised how good this one was. Chris talks about the history of the buildings and you can tell he’s not just taking other people’s stories and just retelling them, he researches many of the buildings including who actually died there. I had a hard time putting this down, if it wasn’t for you know having a family and a job I would’ve finished it in one day. I read 119 pages in one day and then the rest in a couple days.

3.5. I loved reading about Toledo from a haunted perspective. If you’re not from Toledo, you prob wouldn’t care for this book.
