# Event Details - **Event Name**: Graceland Cemetery Walking Tour with Adam Selzer: SUPERSIZE! - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 08 Nov, 2025 at 12:00 pm – Sat, 08 Nov, 2025 at 03:00 pm - **Event Description**: In-person cemetery strolls return with incredible stories from Mysterious Chicago, with Adam Selzer, author of the new book on Graceland.About this EventThere are too many stories to fit on one walking tour at Graceland... but this time, we'll try!Historically, most of the biggest, most impressive monuments in American cemeteries have been built by brewers, lumber merchants, steel barons, and real estate moguls. But there are far more stories at Graceland than just those movers and shakers. Some of those industrialists and politicians had daughters who set the city on fire with their scandalous novels, or wives who were attacked as "intolerant abolitionists" by anti-Lincoln newspapers. There are underground railroad workers, people who escaped slavery, members of the early LGBTQ community, artists, flappers, radicals, and many more. Some of the most incredible stories are in unmarked graves, and new mysteries to solve come up every day!Usually we have to make choices - do we go up this road, or that road? This side of the pond, or THAT side of the pond? For this special edition, at several points, we're going to say "Why not do both?" While our normal route takes about 75-90 minutes, this time we plan to run for roughly twice that long.Tour guide Adam Selzer is the author of , , and a new book about serial killer Johann Hoch, who is also the subject of his new podcast, Tomb Snoopers. He is often seen on the History Channel, the Travel Channel, PBS, and Netflix. His virtual tours continue to log thousands of viewers every week. Each tour is a little different, but almost all of our Graceland routes include the famous Inez and "Eternal Silence" statues - with some newly discovered data!! Join us for a 2.5 hour (or so) walk through American history - using Graceland's grand new entrance!Praise for Adam's Graceland Book:"Tantalizing... A prolific and stylish writer, tireless tour guide, and passionate researcher." - Rick Kogan, Chicago Tribune"A truth-seeking research glutton....(the book is) an adept melding of the tours, the research, and the writing." - Chicago Reader"Emblematic of...hipster tour guides. Selzer goes beyond mere trivia. He turns up fascinating individual stories of cemetery residents without leaning too heavily on the big names." - Third Coast ReviewsWhat You Need to Know:- Meet a bit before noon inside the newly renovated main entrance at Clark and Irving Park!- We suggest you have lunch ahead of time.- Tour runs rain or shine!- The cemetery is near the red line, the 22 Clark bus, and the Irving Park bus.- The walk covers about 3 miles over the course of 2.5 hours min. Some of the walking veers off the paved paths. You'll get about 5-7k steps!https://youtu.be/S_JrmvAmdas - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/chicago/graceland-cemetery-walking-tour-with-adam-selzer-supersize/100001846256806809 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, workshops, lgbt-pride - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 48.8, max: 48.8, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Chicago - **state**: IL - **country**: United States - **location**: Graceland Cemetery - **lat**: 41.95729350000001 - **long**: -87.6595195 - **full address**: Graceland Cemetery, 4001 North Clark Street, Chicago, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Graceland Cemetery Walking Tour with Adam Selzer: SUPERSIZE! - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/58b17726152d66c50622989389b60039418531aa5e17fe66999c540882777bbe-rimg-w1200-h1600-dc2f471e-gmir.jpg?v=1761691183 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Graceland Cemetery Walking Tour with Adam Selzer: SUPERSIZE! being held? - **A:** Graceland Cemetery Walking Tour with Adam Selzer: SUPERSIZE! takes place on Sat, 08 Nov, 2025 at 12:00 pm to Sat, 08 Nov, 2025 at 03:00 pm at Graceland Cemetery, 4001 North Clark Street, Chicago, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Graceland Cemetery Walking Tour with Adam Selzer: SUPERSIZE!? - **A:** Graceland Cemetery Walking Tour with Adam Selzer: SUPERSIZE! is organized by Mysterious Chicago / Astonishing Chicago. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
