On this tour, you get to hear about some of St. Paul's most interesting ghosts (and ghostly encounters), including: Ann Bilansky, the only woman in Minnesota history to receive the death penalty was found guilty of poisoning her husband with arsenic. A gallows was built and she was executed right on the streets of St. Paul, and she swore her innocence to her grave. Does her wrongfully accused spirit still walk the Earth? Discover the haunted Landmark Center whose events coordinator, was quoted in the Pioneer Press saying, ‘We have even had women guests here go into the second-floor bathroom and come out quivering, saying that they saw a man in there, a man that disappears.’ Old Bets, a Dakota woman who claimed to be 100 years old and was a local celebrity who wandered the streets charging people to take their picture with her. Long after her death, people still claim to hear her call of ‘ho-ho’ as they walk through the streets of downtown St. Paul.
In 1905, a forbidden love affair led to a crime of a passion that resulted in Minnesota’s final execution. The ghost of the condemned still roams the basement.
