Historian recounts ghost tales

Posted

NARROWSBURG, NY — Sullivan County historian John Conway had the audience in the palm of his hand last weekend, as he regaled the crowd with stories about reputed ghost stories throughout the county. Stories from the Revolutionary War mixed with tales from more recent times entertained folks at the Tusten-Cochecton branch of the Western Sullivan Library, and Conway encouraged folks to dig deeper into some of the spooky stories, which included the Hex Murder Ghost that some claim can still be seen on the Old Stone Arch Bridge crossing Callicoon Creek. "As we reconstruct our history," Conway told the attentive crowd, "these stories inevitably crop up from time to time. Are they true?" he asked. "You be the judge.”
