Ghosts of Genesee Country

My latest book, available in local booksyores and Amazon.com. History and ghost stories from Genesee Country. Read about Indian Allen, Rattelsnake Pete and Frog Leg George as well as ghost stories from the Genesee Valley region centered on Rochester.

 

Ghosts of Old Rochesterville

The local history of the Rochester area is steeped in a rich and somewhat bloody history. It dates back to the mid 1600s when the French first set foot ashore in Irondequoit. There were wars for greed, conquest, territory, and independence fought over this area.

All the stories in this book are from either my own experiences, or were told to me by people on one of my investigations or ghost walks. They experienced the “ghost” first hand.

I am not going to tell you ghosts are real. That is for you to decide for yourself; as for me, my money is on the ghosts. One thing I have found, there are a lot of ghost stories out there. Most are not legend status like “The White Lady of Durand Eastman Park,” those are the ones everyone hears about. These are the small ones, ones that still deserve to be told and remembered. That is, if you like ghost stories…
