haunted – Chicago and Cook County Cemeteries

For over 40 years, my interests have included cemeteries, and building miniatures so just for fun I have built called Uncle Louie’s haunted mansion.

So, for the first time I have combined two of my work, cemetery research and building miniatures. Building a miniature haunted mansion complete with a cemetery alongside . It was built to one half scale dollhouse size and is about 40 inches tall. I have been building miniatures since 1990 and this project is the largest taking a full year to build. A miniature project should tell a story, a reason for being.

So here is uncle Louie’s haunted mansion – the back story. Please enjoy!
