Very disappointing. Kjersti (KJ) said she encouraged everyone to share their own ghost experiences,…read moreand I told her I had one that involved a mansion half a block off the path and asked if I could tell it there because it was right on the way back to our original spot that we were heading. All the other stories were done by that point. She absolutely refused to do this, and then asked if I still wanted to tell my story after we got back to our original spot a block and a half away. I really didn't want to because it would've been 10 times more effective if we were standing in front of the actual house, but I did anyway and I regret that, because it didn't have anywhere near the same impact. Afterward, she was extremely insistent that people give her any feedback whatsoever, so I politely told her that it would've been nicer if she could've simply accommodated us all walking half a block away so the story could have been told properly. It was literally on the way and would not have taken us any further than we would've been going anyway. Her response was extremely off the charts, very meanspirited, completely offended, unnecessary, unexpected, and super nasty. Sadly, she doesn't seem like a very emotionally stable person at all, and not very sincere either. She kept telling everyone that she wanted to hear their ghost stories, but then when somebody actually wanted to share, she seemed to be more concerned about being upstaged. It was really stupid and lame actually. Definitely would not recommend.

If you found yourself reliving the same day over and over, what would you do differently?…read more An interesting question with answers that probably vary widely across the board, though knowing my luck I'd probably end up repeating a day where I wake up and all 3 cats have already taken turns puking outside my door so with each semi-conscious early morning step to the coffee grinder I get a gushy pile of yack between my toes... Ya know, the more I think about it, the less glamorous this do-over day seems. I mean, what if I get stuck in a day that follows a feverish binge-drinking session and I'm forced to relive that awful hangover feeling of my frontal lobe bleeding out through my corneas? Ugh. But I guess that's the point of it. It's never really as simple as just.one.day and when you're forced to think about it that way, you have to resort back to the tried and true 'live every day to it's fullest' biz-nast--or as I like to say: What Would Bill Murray Do? Which brings me to the whole point of this review: The Groundhog Day Walking Tour Where you can basically do a dry-run of one man's expertly orchestrated do-over day, in hopes of better preparing should you ever find yourself in a similar situation. For those of you not in the know, the flick 'Groundhog Day' that's set in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania was actually filmed nowhere near there. In fact, the entire film (less a few odd scenes shot in nearby Cary, Il warehouse or sound stages) was shot in the Chicago suburb of Woodstock, Illinois. It's definitely a good hour-and-a-half-plus out from Chicago, but in my expert opinion (I'm calling myself an expert now) it's one of the best places in the state to visit. A quintessential and historic downtown district rife with locally-owned businesses, world-class eats, a gorgeous town square, relatively easy Metra access and most importantly, the imprint of an icon--The man, the myth, the legend: Bill mother f*cking, Groundhog Day, Ghost-Bustin' Ass, Murray (per Wu Tang's GZA - http://www.metacafe.com/watch/5941922/gza_rza_and_bill_murray_coffee_and_cigarettes/). Should you find yourself visiting this scenic downtown district, I recommend you bookmark these listings so as not to let your life (and all these historic placards commemorating the 1993 hit film) pass you by. I've taken the liberty of making this easy for you, so you can optimize your time and make the most of your day doing the Groundhog Day walking tour (placards marked at all sites) all on your own. 1.
