This self-guided audio tour is your invitation to uncover Bay City's untold tales. Wander from the opulent arches of the State Theatre to the hushed halls of the Bay County Library and beyond, discovering what most visitors never hear.

Whose desperate midnight speech in the Masonic Temple changed a city’s fate? Which forbidden book vanished from the library, sparking a scandal that echoes even today? What odd, whispered ritual was performed under the Theatre’s flickering lights?
