Spooky Places to Visit in NY for Halloween
For some, this time of year is about leaf peeping and pumpkin spice, for others, it’s about seeing just how brave you are. If you relate better the latter, this blog is for you! We’re lucky that the Plattsburgh, NY; Burlington, VT; Potsdam, Lake Placid and Malone, NY areas are some of the oldest in the country. That means there’s plenty of spooky spots to visit in the spirit of Halloween. Check out some of our favorites below, and see them all here.
Seneca Falls Historical Society Museum– Seneca Falls, NY
After reports of sightings and paranormal activity, the Paranormal Investigators of Central New York visited in 2011. The sounds of two women having a conversation was recorded. They eventually returned and asked the women to move a ball on the table which then rolled into one of the investigator’s laps.
Fort Ontario State Historic Site– Oswego, NY
This site was featured on “Ghost Hunters” due to strange phenomena like odd lights and music, a child calling his cat, and a woman in an upstairs window. Now the “Guardian of the Northern Frontier” is a great place to visit this time of year.
Durand-Eastman Park– Rochester, NY
It’s said that the “White Lady” haunts this park. She is the ghost of a woman that lived in the 3 Lakes Pavilion that lost her daughter. To this day she continues searching for her while dressed in all white. This story may seem familiar since it was turned into the 1988 movie, “Lady in White”.

Stay Safe, Stay Alert While Driving
According to the National Weather Service, after the autumnal equinox, we lose 1-2 minutes of sunlight daily. Meaning that most of us will be commuting to and from work in the dark, increasing the risk of drowsy driving. Now we know this sounds insignificant, but the truth is, driving drowsy is just as hazardous as driving under the influence of alcohol. For example, symptoms of drowsy driving are slow reaction times, impaired judgment, increased risk of crashing, and decreased awareness. However, it is almost impossible for investigators to confirm, without a doubt, that drowsiness was the reason for an accident. If a driver is intoxicated, officers can rely on blood, breath, and physical tests. As for drowsiness, they have only the lack of skid marks, the involvement of only one vehicle and only one person in the vehicle to draw their conclusions from. Injuries from drowsy driving accidents are often serious and can be fatal at times. To avoid this happening to you, keep a lookout for the following symptoms. If any should occur, we suggest finding alternate transportation home.
- Difficulty focusing and frequent blinking
- Trouble remembering the last few miles you drove
- Trouble keeping your head up
- Drifting, tailgating and hitting the rumble strips on the shoulder
- Daydreaming or a wandering mind
- Yawning repeatedly
