Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for Ghosts and Legends of Yonkers

YONKERS, N.Y. - Oct. 22, 2015 - PRLog -- Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for Ghosts and Legends of Yonkers

Local author, Jason Medina, will be available to sign copies of book

The quiet New York suburb of Yonkers hides a history of hauntings. Now converted into apartments, old Public School 13 is the site of strange apparitions that may be ghosts of former students and teachers who died in a tragic fire. The Boyce Thompson Institute’s lofty goal of solving world hunger was never met, and unfulfilled spirits are said to lurk in its abandoned laboratory. Wealthy colonial landowners still watch over stately historic homes like Philipse Manor Hall. Even the iconic Untermeyer Park is a playground for the otherworldly. Local ghost investigator Jason Medina reveals these and other ghosts of Yonkers.

Highlights from Ghosts and Legends of Yonkers include:

• It features many prominent locations within the city, including historic sites and landmarks.
• The author’s Yonkers-based team has collected much of the evidence used in this book firsthand during our paranormal investigations, which can be used to verify the validity of some of these hauntings.
• Some of the featured locations are open to the public.
