HAUNTED NYC: The true ghost stories that inspired GHOSTBUSTERS

Описание: GHOSTBUSTERS is a cinematic love letter to New York City. In fact, it may even be the movie that introduced you to the Big Apple as it was for me. I’m a massive fan, so in honor of the original film’s 40th anniversary I made this special episode featuring a ghost tour of the movie’s most iconic filming locations including The New York Public Library, Columbia University, FDNY Ladder 8, 55 Central Park West (Dana Barrett’s apartment), Central Park, Tavern on the Green, City Hall, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty (I know, I’m crossing the streams on this last location from the 1989 film). Though there’s no Zuul or Gozer, there are a number of fascinating true ghostly legends associated with many of these locations. Red Bearded Phantoms! Possessed Statues! Ice Skating Victorian Spinsters!

For my visit to the Statue of Liberty I used Statue City Cruises: https://www.cityexperiences.com/new-y...

Extended Video of Ellis Island Hard Hat Tour will hit the channel on Wednesday, July 3.

I HIGHLY recommend taking the hard hat tour of the abandoned hospital on Ellis Island. All proceeds go to the Save Ellis Island Foundation to assist in preserving these historic structures. It really was an incredibly interesting, fascinating and haunting experience.
