Shocking stories ripped from the headlines of Wisconsin’s seamy past

The tales, all true and well-documented, feature the most scandalous headlines the Badger State has produced. Author Anna Lardinois synthesizes well-researched information into cohesive tales of terrible fires, vengeful call girls, famous flim-flam men, and eye-brow archingly suspicious deaths. Meet mob boss Frank Balistrieri and discover the havoc he wreaked. Read the stories of red light districts, rum runners, crimes, and tragedies.

Anna Lardinois owns Gothic Milwaukee, offering the city’s most popular haunted, historical walking tours. Anna also created Walking Milwaukee, a collection of history-based, self-guided walking tours of Milwaukee and the suburbs sold locally at Whole Foods, west elm, The Milwaukee Art Museum, and a variety of local shops. She hosts a 30-minute weekly radio show on WXRW Milwaukee. Her first book, Milwaukee Ghosts and Legends, was published in 2018.
