A review by darkandbookish
Weird New York by Chris Gethard, Mark Sceurman, Mark Moran

4.0

I thought the stories in this book were great, and really, really entertaining. But, when I bought it, I had hoped it would be more about places I could actually visit. Unfortunately, it was mostly ghost stories and myths that didn't seem to come from very credible sources. (By this I mean they seemed like random accounts from one or two people, not well known legends.)

I did enjoy the book, though, and I am glad I have it. I was especially excited to see Magic Forest and The House of Frankenstein Wax Museum up in Lake George in the book, two places I visit almost every trip up there.

I recommend this book to everyone who loves fun stories and myths, but not for the actual travel suggestions.
