Of course, throughout the years the city has changed a lot. There are many buildings and locations whose history would create paranormal activity but all these years later many residents aren't familiar with the stories from the past, so when there are interactions with ghosts people freak out.

The perfect example is the Hooters in Chicago. It's located on Wells Street. That restaurant is famous for two things. It's the only one in the city. Also, it's the only haunted Hooters in the whole chain. It's pretty freaky because you wouldn't expect that kind of place to be haunted but don't judge a book by its cover.

Back in the 1800s, the medical field was making big advancements. Doctors were learning more about the human body thanks to being able to study the dead. The building where Hooters is located used to be a storage facility for cadavers. It makes sense that there is paranormal in that restaurant.

Here are some of the strange things employees and customers have experienced.

• A male and female ghost dressed in 19th-century clothing.

• Items falling off tables and shelves with no one around.

• Temperatures dropping drastically for no reason.

• The sound of footsteps in empty rooms.

• Appearance of orbs.

• The jukebox turns on and off without anyone touching it.

• Electronics being drained of power very quickly without explanation.
