Ghosts, Legends & the Paranormal: Waukesha's Haunted History with Josh Hughes

from What's On Tap

Live in-studio, we’re joined by Josh Hughes—author, tour guide, and Waukesha’s go-to paranormal expert—for a deep dive into local ghost stories and supernatural lore. Josh talks about his new book Ghosts of Waukesha, the research behind it, and some of the most chilling stories he’s uncovered, including a mysterious photo taken by his father featuring a ghostly girl who wasn’t actually there. He shares insights from leading the Waukesha Ghost Walk, local urban legends like the witch house, and how he’s spent the past five years unearthing the city’s haunted history. We also preview Josh’s appearance at the Milwaukee Paranormal Conference, where he’ll be speaking alongside others covering everything from ghosts to aliens—and yes, there was even a 20-foot snake last year. Josh rounds out the segment with a personal story about the friendly ghost haunting his own home and tells us where to find more of his work.
