The Grave Talks | Haunted, Paranormal & Supernatural

Shaker’s Cigar Bar in Milwaukee has built a reputation that goes well beyond food, drinks, and cigars—one shaped by a past that doesn’t seem to stay in the past.
The property itself has a long and complicated history. The land was once a cemetery before becoming a Prohibition-era speakeasy and brothel with ties to Al Capone. That alone raises questions—but it’s what continues to be reported inside that keeps those questions alive.
Disembodied voices. Footsteps with no one there. Objects that don’t stay where they’re left. Some encounters seem tied to specific figures—a young girl near the bathrooms, a woman upstairs—while others are harder to define, especially in the basement, where many describe a presence that feels distinctly out of place.
Renovations uncovered human remains, adding another layer to an already uneasy history. But for those who spend time inside Shaker’s, the activity isn’t something confined to stories or rumors—it’s something people say they’ve experienced firsthand.
So what is really going on inside Shaker’s Cigar Bar? Today on The Grave Talks, a conversation with Shakers Cigar Bar owner/founder, Bob Weiss.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!
Chicago may be one of America’s busiest cities, but beneath the constant motion lies a long history of ghost stories, hauntings, and unexplained encounters. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we explore some of the Windy City’s most chilling paranormal legends, from eerie activity tied to the Museum of Science and Industry to the enduring mystery of Bachelors Grove Cemetery, one of the most infamous haunted cemeteries in the country.
We also look at the bigger question of why Chicago seems so paranormally active. Could its swamps, waterways, and violent past have left something behind? Then we head south to Springfield, Illinois, where the spirit of Abraham Lincoln is said to linger long after death, along with other strange stories tied to his hometown.
From haunted city streets to presidential legends, this episode takes a closer look at the ghostly side of Illinois history.

He opened a small coffee shop in an old building, arriving before sunrise when the space should have been completely empty. At first, it was just small things—sounds that didn’t quite line up, a feeling that someone else was there even when the doors were locked.
Over time, it became part of the routine. He even started quietly acknowledging it, and for a while, nothing about it felt threatening.
Until one morning, everything shifted.
The feeling changed, heavier and unfamiliar, and when he went down into the basement, it became clear this wasn’t the same presence he’d grown used to. What happened next didn’t last long—but it was enough to make one thing certain.
Some things in that building didn’t belong to the same place.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! PART TWO
When seasoned paranormal investigator Eric Freeman Sims and his husband purchased the historic Knight House in Hopkinsville, they knew they were stepping into a piece of history—but they didn’t expect that history to feel so present. Built between 1815 and 1820, the home is the oldest standing structure in the city, once belonging to the prominent Knight family for nearly a century.
Not long after moving in, the experiences began. Disembodied voices, unexplained footsteps, persistent knocking, and strange sounds have turned everyday life into something far less ordinary. For Eric, someone already familiar with the paranormal, the activity raises even deeper questions about what may still be tied to the home—and why.
We explore the history of the Knight House, the encounters unfolding within its walls, and the possibility that some spirits don’t simply fade with time. Whether it’s the Knight family… or something else entirely, this is a home that may still be very much occupied.

He hadn’t been looking for anything when he stopped.
The shop was just another place filled with old things, most of them easy to pass without a second thought. But one small box caught his attention just long enough that he picked it up, bought it, and took it home without thinking much about it afterward.
At first, it didn’t seem like anything. It sat where he left it, blending into the house the same way everything else did. Nothing stood out, nothing felt out of place, and there was no reason to question bringing it home.
Until things started to shift. Not in obvious ways, and not all at once, but enough that it became harder to ignore. And once it did, it didn’t take long to realize the problem wasn’t the box itself—it was whatever came with it.
