曼哈顿的鬼故事

纽约流传着很多鬼故事,象西10街上的马克吐温大楼、著名的Chelsea旅馆,当然最有名的是Spring Street上的Manhanttan Bistro,一家不大的小餐馆。传说中,200多年前,1800年,一位即将成为新娘的女子,在结婚前夜,尸体被人发现在位于这里的一口井底,后来成为129号,Spring Street的地址,好像街道的名称Spring,也是来源于“the Road to the spring”那么句话。

记得以前有人给俺讲过,当年,女子家人和警方都认为,最受怀疑的杀人凶手是她的未婚夫,可是,在后来的法庭官司上,新郎聘请的辩护律师,是大名鼎鼎的亚历山大·汉密尔顿和爱朗·伯尔,最后当然是打赢了官司,新郎无罪释放了。可是,受了冤情的女子便时时在此地显灵,并为新郎一家和律师上了诅咒。不久,汉密尔顿和伯尔成了政敌,继而进行了一场决斗,汉密尔顿中枪而死,而伯尔也中止了政治生涯,一蹶不振。

直到如今,这个餐馆里还时时传出女鬼显身的耸闻,餐馆也借此大作“鬼”生意。

鬼节将至,这个周末,纽约到处都是与鬼有关的活动,找来一些,列在这里:

Candlelight Ghost Tours,中央公园里的Merchant’s House Museum,被称作纽约最有名的鬼屋,October 25, 26, 27, 29, 30 晚6点到10点,举办烛光游鬼活动,Candlelight Ghost Tours。每30分钟一次,带有讲鬼故事。

大雨天的,搞点室内活动?

如果你还记得eyes wide shut?阿汤在八街买了一套鬼装,开去新泽西参加群魔乱舞。阿汤寂寞的时候,出去解闷找的妓女,应该是住在东11街340号,所以,离这里不算远的BLVD夜总会,便把这个传统继承了下去。

Eyes Wide Shut Halloween Mansion Party

Tom and Nicole won’t be present, but the spooky (if not slightly cheesy) vibe of "Eyes Wide Shut” is re-created throughout BLVD’s 4,000-square-foot space, with DJs Abrupt, JCNY and E.M. spinning hip-hop, R&B, reggaeton, house, ‘80s and freestyle. If you’re looking to score some cash, don’t think about throwing on an old white sheet and cutting a couple of eye holes: $1,000 cash prize will be awarded for the best male and female costumes (which are mandatory for admission).
When: Saturday, Oct. 27, 10 p.m.
Tickets: $20 in advance, $25 at the door. Buy tickts online 
Where: BLVD (199 Bowery at Spring St., 212-982-7821)
