THE AMITYVILLE HORROR HOUSE
|
| |
Location: 112 Ocean Avenue location / map / directions
|
| What to expect: In December 1975, George and Kathy Lutz and their three children moved into 112 Ocean Avenue, a large Dutch Colonial house in Amityville, a suburban neighborhood located on the south shore of Long Island, New York. Thirteen months before the Lutzes moved in, Ronald DeFeo, Jr. had shot and killed six members of his family at the house. After 28 days, the Lutzes left the house, claiming to have been terrorized by paranormal phenomena while living there. But be warned...the local neighborhood doesn't really like having tourists snooping about, so the house is somewhat "hidden." |
|
|
 |
|
| MONSTER MINI GOLF |
| |
| Location: 410-C Commack Road location / map / directions |
What to expect: Not your typical cheesy mini-golf family spot...Mainly decorated like a UV lit haunted house, this place is fun for all the "boils" & "ghouls!" Featured attractions available at this location are mini-golf, video game arcade, and laser maze!!!
|
|
 |
 |
|
| THE EDGAR ALLAN POE
COTTAGE |
| |
| Location: 2640 Grand Concourse location / map / directions |
| What to expect: Edgar Allan Poe spent the last years of his
life, from 1846 to 1849, in The Bronx at Poe
Cottage, now located at Kingsbridge Road and the
Grand Concourse. A small wooden farmhouse built
about 1812, the cottage once commanded
unobstructed vistas over the rolling Bronx hills
to the shores of Long Island. It was a bucolic
setting in which the great writer penned many of
his most enduring poetical works, including
“Annabel Lee,” “The Bells” and “Eureka.”
Administered by The Bronx County Historical
Society since 1975, the cottage is restored to
its original appearance, with authentic period
furnishings. A film presentation and guided tour
help bring Poe Cottage to life. |

|
|
|
| THE BONE MUSEUM |
| |
| Location: 255 McKibbin Street location / map / directions |
| Telephone: 914-230-0937 |
| What to expect: "The Bone Museum challenges the established practices surrounding the display of human remains in the 21st century, by offering access to the general public in a field traditionally reserved for academia and medical specialists. The Bone Museum strives to create an environment that not only prioritizes equal education but actively challenges social stigmas. Not everyone has access to medical collections and artifacts that explore and foster the science behind human bones. We aim to change this." |
|
|
|
|
| BELVEDERE CASTLE |
| |
| Location: The Great Lawn in Central Park location / map / directions |

Calvert Vaux, co-designer of Central Park, created the miniature castle in 1869 as one of its many whimsical structures intended as a lookout to the reservoir to the north (now the Great Lawn) and the Ramble to the south. A perfect spot to take photos! |
|
|
|
| MERCHANT HOUSE MUSEUM |
| |
| Location: 29 East 4th Street location / map / directions |
| What to expect: The Merchant’s House was built in 1832 and
purchased by Seabury Tredwell, a prosperous New
York City hardware merchant, in 1835. The
Tredwell family continued to live in the house
for nearly 100 years. The period rooms on four
floors are furnished with the family’s original
furnishings dating from 1835-1865. See how a
wealthy family and their four Irish servants
lived in mid-19th century New York. |
|
|
|
| TRINITY CHURCH CEMETERY |
| |
| Location: 74 Trinity Place location / map / directions |

in New York with more than 2,000 mourners in

Owner & native New Yorker, Kayleigh has been a collector of all things odd over the last decade and a half. She has traveled the country gathering bones, specimens and spooky decor. With her love of Halloween and her adoration of taxidermy, curating this store is all her passions coming together.

| |
| Location: 76 East 7th Street location / map / directions |
| Telephone: 917-841-5989 |
| What to expect: "This fifties-inspired boutique has undergone several reincarnations through the years first as a local hangout for enfants terribles like Lou Reed and Debbie Harry in the seventies, then as a destination for full-on rocker-chic ensembles on St. Marks in the eighties. Now settled into a slim space on Second Avenue, Enzs has reinvented itself once again as an outfitter of modern-day pinups and rockabillies. The shop is known for its weekly shuffle of nipped-waist dresses, most designed by owner Mariann Marlowe. The selection includes full-skirted dresses in bright prints, retro, patterned aprons, burlesque bathing suits, and unusual accessories like Dia de Los Muertos cocktail rings and charm bracelets. Punk nuances like skull-stamped T-shirts and handbags hint at the shops angsty past, but the aesthetic also surfaces in softer standouts, like the macabre line of faded, rose-embellished jewelry by Tarina Tarantino. And for those looking to accessorize beyond the wall of sharp clutches and leather Tano bags, button-down greaser shirts and black cotton tees are on hand for the men buying you a beer (or a milkshake) later." |

Once inside, you will find that this tiny and incredibly intimate space beautifully combines the feel of the "black box room" Goth clubs of years past -- complete with dark conners, nooks & crannies, and plush seating areas -- with a Dark Tiki aesthetic and hand-crafted specialty drink menu that is beyond unique! Owner and mixologist, Zofia, has poured her soul, blood, sweat, and tears into bringing her dream to life...and it shows in every carefully curated detail of this hidden gem of the Upper East Side. Be sure to tell Zofia that we said hello when you visit her Hideout!!! |
