Haunted Places in the Capital Region and Beyond

In conjunction with last week’s blog about fun fall activities, today we’re bringing you a list of some actual haunted places in the area. Visit at your own risk!

Vale Cemetery — Schenectady, N.Y. — This 150-year-old cemetery allegedly has ghostly figures that wander grave sites, sounds of singing in an old church on the grounds, and even statues that bleed from their eyes.

Canfield Casino in Congress Park — Saratoga Springs, N.Y. — Established in the late 1800s, the Casino is now a popular wedding and event venue. You might have some unexpected guests though! SyFy’s “Ghost Hunters” series even investigated the former Congress Spring Bottling Plant and Congress Hall.

Fort William Henry Museum — Lake George, N.Y. — Another location that was investigated by the “Ghost Hunters” crew, this military fort gives tours throughout the month telling stories about victims of the French and Indian War.

The Knox Mansion — Johnstown, N.Y. — This 42-room house built in 1889 is said to be home to a spirit of a gardener who only appears to children. Typical experiences at the Knox Mansion include mysterious footsteps, cold spots, flickering lights, and spooky voices.
