The Sausage King Sep 22, 2025

Show notes

Allen and Lee are back and this time we are covering one of Chicago's most notorious true crime stories with a little spiritualism and a ghost story sprinkled in. Adolph Luetgert made a fortune selling sausage in the Windy City during the Colombian Exposition in 1893. However, once the festival left town, business started drying up. His wife, Louisa, started asking questions and then she suddenly disappeared. Days later, her wedding ring was found in a vat of acid in the basement of the sausage factory. This bizarre true crime tales inspired Allen's new book, "The Sausage King."

Since Washington Irvin published "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" in 1820, tales of a headless horseman have fascinated people all over the globe. But did you know that there is actually a story of one in McClean County, Kentucky? It all started with a skirmish during the Civil War. And strangely, the soldier didn't lose his head while fighting. It happened the next day in a completely unrelated way.
