Send us a Text Message.Sometimes, two things go together so well they’ve come to epitomize togetherness. Peanut butter and jelly or Bonnie and Clyde come to mind, but this isn’t one of those times. In this episode, we look at two completely unrelated locations. The only thing they have in common is they are both haunted. First, we’ll visit Union Station in Kansas City. Missouri.
