We will enforce strict Covid 19 precautions during this event (see below).  Join a fun group of NYSN members and friends and set out onto the streets of the Financial District; the site of amazing  graveyards, hauntings and some of the grizzliest deeds ever done!  It will be a fun and informative way to explore, learn and socialize.  We’ll set you up on teams and give you everything you need to know to help find the clues. Space is limited to 20 participants. Following the hunt you will have the option to socialize at an outdoor venue.

How it works:

  • Arrive at the registration point at 7pm sharp.  If you come alone we will set you up on teams of 5 people.
  • Each team will have 90 minutes to find as many of the clues that we give you.
  • When finished each team will return to a set location for socializing food and drinks
  • Prizes are awarded to those finding the most clues. (all clues are part of the geography, buildings, history of the area.  We don’t plant any clues)

What are we looking for?

Lower Manhattan in the early 1600’s till now has need the site of hangings and hauntings, massacres, explosions and other not so nice and creepy things.  You will be scouring Bowling Green to City Hall, visiting (supposedly haunted places), searching for history markers and doing some research on things that have happened.
