Strange and Unexplained with Daisy Eagan
About this episode
For all intents and purposes, German brewer Johann Adam Lemp achieved the so-called American Dream for generations of his descendants when he arrived in St. Louis, Missouri in 1838. His humble lager recipe ballooned into a huge brewery with a family mansion to match. However, as the business got passed down the line, dark history unfurled –haunting the business and house where it all happened.
