How Wisconsin shaped a horror legend

Robert Bloch was a familiar name to me. I had read some of his horror stories, I knew he was the author of “Psycho,” and I’d seen the Alfred Hitchcock movie based on it. But one thing I didn’t know until last month: Bloch, legendary author of horror, fantasy and science fiction books, and screenplays — including episodes of the original Star Trek series — lived and worked in Wisconsin for much of his life.

Chicago Boomers Are Moving To This Midwestern State With Vibrant Cities And Iconic Craft Brews

Retirement doesn't necessarily have to mean packing up for the Sun Belt. For some baby boomers, the next chapter might be just across the state line — somewhere they can enjoy a change of pace without straying too far from the people and places they know. That's apparently the approach of many Chicago boomers, according to a U-Haul migration study: Wisconsin was the top net-gain state for baby boomers moving out of Chicago in mid-2026. For boomers looking to downsize, slow down, or find a city that's a little more affordable, Wisconsin has some options. It has thousands of lakes and miles of scenic trails, alongside cities like Madison and Eau Claire, where award-winning breweries, museums, and senior centers can keep daily life exciting.

10 Wisconsin Bratwurst Shops Worth Driving Across The State For

One sausage maker in this state turns out more than 70 kinds of sausage inside a historic factory. Seventy. I had to read that twice. Another market on this list sells over 25 varieties of raw brats, and it opened back in 1941. A small-town butcher down south has been serving customers for generations. Wisconsin clearly treats the humble brat like a family heirloom.
