It’s time to start planning your Halloween trip. Here’s some destination inspiration for you. Take a visual journey through the haunted sites of New York with us.
Letchworth Village in Rockland County once served as a residential institution for the physically and mentally disabled of all ages. The village opened in 1911 and spanned more than 130 buildings, but reports of poor treatment and improper care eventually led to its closure in 1996. The now abandoned site is a haunted remnant of the events that once occurred within its walls. © Geekonthewing | Dreamstime.com
Located in East Bethany, Rolling Hills Asylum was once a poor house, or asylum for orphans, widowed women and their children, and the disabled. The self-sufficient community, however, resembled more of a prison than a place of refuge. The site today offers ghost tours of the 18th-century building. © Bratty1206 | Dreamstime.com
Across 196 acres of hills sits Mount Hope Cemetery, a Victorian graveyard featuring ornate headstones and grand mausoleums. Take the Mischief, Murder and Mayhem Tours to learn about some of its inhabitants, from their criminal history to their lives as enforcers to their unfortunate ends. © Bcpix | Dreamstime.com
The oldest-operating hotel in Ontario County, Naples Hotel opened in 1818 and now reports spirits inhabiting its walls. News of whispers, unexplained movements and lights flickering have spread, and some apparitions even have their own names. © Bcpix | Dreamstime.com
Opened in 1856, Smallpox Hospital lies on Roosevelt Island in Manhattan. The building fell into ruin just one century after opening as a place for patients suffering from smallpox. Its neo-Gothic architecture and abandoned state adds to its haunted nature. © Jonybigude | Dreamstime.com
Perhaps one of the most iconic spooky sites in New York, Headless Horseman Bridge lies within Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. While not the real bridge from Ichabod Crane’s classic story, this bridge received its name after the original rotted away. © Sandra Foyt | Dreamstime.com
