I was wondering if anyone knew of any places in Dubuque that are haunted? I've also heard about some tunnel by Epworth or Farley. If you know what I'm talking about let me know. Thanks

The Ham House in Dubuque has been reported to be haunted for over 150 years. Unfortunately, it's only open during the summer and just a bit into the fall.

WOW, IDK why I hadn't thought to check out Dubuque! It is just downriver from my hometown Potosi, and close to my current one in Cuba City WI.
www.haunted-places.com/paranorm.htm#IOWA: : IOWA: Dubuque Barn Community Theatre Company. Dubuque’s Grand Opera House was opened in 1890 and became a movie house in 1928. In 1986, the building was renovated and turned into a community theater. About that time, people started hearing weird voices and shuffling footsteps in the deserted building. Employees blamed the unseen spirits for hiding objects, changing lighting, and playing pranks. Then in 1991, apparitions started appearing in the back of the theater. Investigators later discovered that after the opera house became a movie theater, cleaning women called police several times complaining of strange voices in the building at night. (Dubuque is on the Mississippi River at the Iowa-Illinois-Wisconsin border. The old opera house is now the home of the Barn Community Theatre Company, 135 Eighth Street, Dubuque, IA 52001. Phone: 319-588-4356.)

If anyone is interested, we filmed an investigation at the Grand Opera House in Dubuque for TV back in January. We also hosted a public ghost hunt there the following night. Anyway, the episode is now available on our youtube page here: www.youtube.com/paranormalgeneration The episode is called "Phantoms of the Grand Opera" and should be right at the top of the page, unless you're reading this months later. The show airs on cable access in 24 cities in 12 states in the US, and we will be airing soon in 12 cities in Australia.
