Histories & Mysteries of Northern Michigan

By Beth Milligan | March 20, 2023

Do you know why two-thirds of Manistee burned in 1871? Whether or not trolley cars once ran through downtown Traverse City? Where some of the most haunted sites are Up North?

In this week's Histories & Mysteries issue of the Northern Express, sister publication of The Ticker, staff writers go back in time, explore the supernatural, and dive into the curious, monumental, or sometimes inexplicable stories of northern Michigan. The Northern Express is available to read online, or pick up a free copy at one of nearly 700 spots in 14 counties across northern Michigan.
