Description
The ghost walk tour leader and contributor to Haunted Rochester heads east for the horse races, famous springs, and a flood of paranormal phenomena. Author Mason Winfield, operator of Saratoga’s Haunted History Ghost Walks, chronicles the Spa City’s spookiest legends, from the Iroquoian zombie-like vampires to Benedict Arnold’s Halloween apparitions. The heart of the city brims with lore, as covens work in secret in the Devil’s Den neighborhood and phantoms linger at the Arcade on Broadway. In the shadow of the Adirondacks, spectral lights appear on remote Snake Hill, and the Woman in White haunts Saratoga Spa State Park. Explore the creepiest legends of Saratoga history, where some gamblers never leave and demons lurk in the forests. Includes photos!
