Bertie Clippinger plays tricks on the unwary at the Capitol Building, where the teen accidentally fell to his death when a game went horribly wrong. One of Lansing's founding families keeps a spectral vigil over its homestead, the Turner Dodge House.

Founder of Demented Mitten Tours and local author Jenn Carpenter leads readers to the dark side of the Capital City.
