Join me at 7 p.m. on Tuesday night, Oct. 29, at the Lee Memorial Library as I read my two popular local haunted tales for Halloween Week.

“Ghosts
of
Allendale” takes place during the Revolutionary War and features the
Celery Farm and Allendale’s own founding father, John Fell.

“Phantoms of the
Ramapos” is based on true events that occurred in Allendale and
Ho-Ho-Kus 75 years ago.

Both
ghost tales were inspired by local history and heavily researched,
and both stories will be accompanied by slide shows.

"The Ghosts
of Allendale" tale is illustrated with the book’s original
artwork by Northern Highlands students.

"Phantoms of the
Ramapos" is
illustrated with archival photos of the Ho-Ho-Ku
Speedway, old downtown Allendale, and the Darlington Schoolhouse.

The
event is free and open to the public. Signed copies of “Ghosts of
Allendale” will be available for sale, with all proceeds going to
the Fell House. “Phantoms of the Ramapos” is available as a free
iTunes download.

We'll be serving cider and ginger snaps. Seating is
first-come, first-served. The library is at 500 W. Crescent Ave.

If you can't make Tuesday's show, I'll also be speaking at the Mahwah Public Library at 7 p.m. on Halloween Eve.  Scroll down this blog for more info.
