Full description

Welcome to New York and this bone-chilling tour that will take you through former mafia hangouts, crime scenes, and haunted buildings in the city! First, you will visit Finn Square, an area named after its resident who died in World War I that hides a terrible murder story once happened there. Next, you will see the Manhattan Detention Complex, a municipal jail, colloquially known as the Tombs, with its grim history for you to reveal. Then the tour will guide you to the heart of Little Italy, a lively neighborhood filled with cafes, restaurants, pubs, galleries, shops, and the story of the local mafia and gangs. Passing by the former Police Headquarters Building in the monumental Beaux-Arts style, you will learn about the only New York police officer ever to sit in Sing Sing prison’s electric chair. Already frightening enough, but it’s still not the end! Move further and find out about the devastating fire at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory, where workers could not escape the blazing building. After that, you will get to the location of the Limelight nightclub housed in the former Episcopal church, which walls witnessed a death caused by a ritual. Finally, you will visit the location of the original Madison Square Garden, a popular event venue where one revenge ended up with three shot bullets. Join the tour, get your goosebumps ready, and start exploring the dark side of New York City! Disclaimer: disturbing content. Recommended age: 18+
