The most beautiful and evasive ghost in Chicago is a captivating, blue-eyed, flaxen-haired girl in her late teens. On those occasions when she chooses to be seen, she wears the ling, off-white ballgown and dancing shoes in which she died....in 1934. And she loves to dance at the Willowbrook ballroom.
Her name is Mary, or more precisely, Resurrection Mary, after the cemetary in which she is restlessly entombed, Resurrection Cemetary, in suburban Justice, IL. No one knows her real name, or is has never been revealed. Old cemetary records do indicate that a Polish girl of about Mary's age and description is buried there.
Resurrection Mary died in an automobile accident in 1934 on her way home from a night dancing at the old O. Henry Ballroom, now renamed the Willowbrook Ballroom. For the past 50 years her apperances have become accepted by residents in that southwest section of Chicagoland. You can join Unsolved Mysteries and post your own mysteries or
