Local folklore comes to life at the Turnblad Mansion, where the piano plays on its own, and at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, where the subjects of portraits move about. Spirits of victims in the disastrous 1878 mill explosion haunt Mill Ruins Park. The Foshay Tower's elevator seemingly goes haywire for no reason, and inmates and guards in the Hennepin County Jail report sightings of an underdressed spectral figure. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLocal author Ron de Beaulieu investigates the roots of the Mill City's ghost stories, ranging from the tragic to the horrific as well as heartwarming and perplexing. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs of this year, Ron has spent more time in Minnesota than anywhere else in the world. She now lives in South Minneapolis but previously lived in Southeast; before that, she lived in St. Paul. And before that was a long time ago, or so it seems to her now. Ron started writing books to share the interesting things she was learning in grad school at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, where she got an MA in history and a PhD in sociology. \u003cem\u003eHaunted Minneapolis\u003c\/em\u003e is her fourth book, preceeded by \u003cem\u003eMinneapolis Murder \u0026amp; Mayhem\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSt. Paul Murder \u0026amp; Mayhem\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eMinnesota's Most Notorious Mobster: The Making and Breaking of Kid Cann\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 8.9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 08, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54090193928499,"sku":"9781467171458","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/RdhiuH0kMm9781467171458.webp?v=1789602633","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/haunted-minneapolis-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
