Haunted New York

Haunted New York

New York in autumn feels both festive and unsettled: something about the changing weather makes us curious about the cycle of life and death. It’s the perfect time to reflect upon all the feet that have walked these streets before us, and all of the eyes that have watched the city evolve. Some of these eyes seem to still be watching us. You can scarcely walk a block in Manhattan without encountering a haunted landmark.
