Jamie Nestroyl – Omaha’s Dark Gilded Age
@mphtours
Take a journey with us into the opulent—and often ominous—chapters of Omaha’s past. From the glittering wealth of the Gilded Age to the social upheavals of the Progressive Era, we’ll uncover the untold stories that shaped the city’s rise—and haunted its foundations. With a blend of dark history, intriguing local legends, and maybe even a ghost or two, we’ll explore the powerful families, the hidden crimes, and the strange happenings that echo through time… and perhaps still linger in the shadows of Omaha itself
