Illinois · USA · School

Staff at the Elgin restaurant report cold spots, ovens that switch themselves on, and diners who feel someone whispering behind them. The murder story is.

Beef Villa in Elgin, Illinois has produced a steady set of reports from the people who work there: orbs of light, cold spots, and lights and ovens turning themselves on and off on many separate occasions. Diners describe the sensation of someone standing behind them and whispering when nobody is there.

The explanation offered locally is that a teenage boy was shot and killed outside the restaurant at some point in the 1980s, and that what people encounter is his anger.

An update posted in August 2005 qualifies that, and the qualification matters. The original Beef Villa, the building actually connected to the killing in the 1980s, has been demolished. The restaurant carrying the name today is not the building the story belongs to. The update classes the account as half fact for exactly that reason.

We keep the entry with the correction attached. The staff reports are consistent and come from people working ordinary shifts. The history usually offered to explain them belongs to a building that is no longer there.
