Happy #3FPFactsFriday! Today is brought to you by 🐝! Today I’m here to talk about a beautiful cemetery in the #HauntedHudsonValley located in Troy, NY. Oakwood Cemetery was established in 1848 and was the 4th rural cemetery to be established in New York. It was designed by architect John C. Sidney who is most known for his work done alongside fellow architect John Jay Smith at locations like Laurel Hill Cemetery in Philadelphia. What makes Oakwood Cemetery so notable to warrant it a Fact Friday? Not only is it haunted, it is HUGE. This cemetery features 26 miles of roads, 60,000+ graves, 4 artificial lakes, a chapel, and a crematorium! It also boasts scenic views of the Hudson River. In 1984 it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. As for hauntings, all older cemeteries have reports of their ookie spookies. However Oakwood Cemetery has enough that its association occasionally offers ghost tours along with their other historical events offered seasonally. Some of the reports of hauntings from Oakwood Cemetery include children’s spirits laughing and playing between the tombs, mysterious shadows, and, of course, disembodied voices! Certainly enough strange occurrences to warrant a visit to this stunning cemetery if you’re in the area. Oh, and if you’re in the area visiting be sure to check out the Forest Park Cemetery which locals refer to as The Gates of Hell. 👹 Stay safe out there friends! #cemetery #haunted #oakwoodcemetery #hauntednewyork #troyny #paranormal #paranormalactivity #crematorium #cremation #spooky #taphophile #cemeterypics #graveyard #3FatesParanormal #ParanormalNewYork #goth #gothgoth #beereckless #photographicwarfare #photography #photooftheday (at Oakwood Cemetery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP_x7PTNKuE/?utm_medium=tumblr

Happy #3FPFactsFriday ! Today’s fact is brought to you by 🐻. Most people have heard stories of the Bermuda Triangle, a patch of the Atlantic Ocean that allegedly turns navigation systems haywire and causes ships to disappear without a trace. Well, we have had a similar occurrence right here in NY State. Approximately 12 years ago New York City drivers had similar fears about a well-known and apparently terrifying portion of New York City known as Midtown. Around 2008, drivers in New York City started to complain that within a five block radius of the Empire State Building their cars would inexplicably stop working and refuse to start again. A manager of the NYC Tire and Auto Care in Hell‘s Kitchen reported that this would happen almost every day. He proceeded to report that if the same cars were picked up and transported a few blocks away they would start with no other mechanical help. The best guess as to a reason for this was that a radio signal broadcast beacon on top of the Empire State Building was disabling alarm systems in cars and preventing them from starting. Interestingly, around 2013, this particular phenomenon disappeared as mysteriously as it began. However, the broadcast beacon is still there.
