Gothic Wisconsin: Twisted Tales from the Middle Coast

Presented in part of Waukesha Reads

October 24 @ 6:30 PM

Waukesha Civic Theatre

How much do you know about Wisconsin’s despicable, harrowingly haunted past? Author and historian Anna Lardinois, creator of Gothic Milwaukee, knows it all! She’ll entertain us with stories from her books and share tales from her time working as the Pfister Hotel’s Narrator in Residence. Anna will bring to life legends that seem as mythical as the story of Mexican Gothic’s Noemí Taboada but are entirely (or allegedly) true. A Q&A and book signing will follow. Copies of Anna’s books will be available for purchase.

Anna Lardinois is an award-winning tour guide and the author of 13 books of regional history and lore, including Shipwrecks of the Great Lakes, Storied and Scandalous Wisconsin, Milwaukee Ghosts and Legends, and Madison Ghosts and Legends.
