The Oriental Theater is one of the most haunted places in Chicago. In place of the Oriental was the Iroquois Theatre which had a disastrous fire in 1903. This tragic fire claimed the lives of many.
"Over 1,900 people snagged a ticket for the performance in the "absolutely fireproof" building. What irony in those words."
The theatre, not far from the university, is located at 24 W. Randolph Street. The site has a good video of the story. Enjoy.
