Boroughs of the Dead Tour Guide Marie Carter is thrilled to present “Ghosts of the Boroughs.” October 15. In this eerie, illustrated lecture you will learn about the haunted mansions of the boroughs, a ghostly monastery, a creepy story involving murder and a spooky doll, former insane asylums, grisly murders, and many other ghastly NYC stories! And you will learn about the ghosts that haunt your own backyard in Astoria. Please note: this lecture will feature different stories from Boroughs of the Dead’s walking tour, “Haunting Histories and Legends of Astoria” which we also hope you will check out! www.boroughsofthedead.com/quee ns
