About the attraction

What awaits

Legend. The New Dominion recounted an older story in 1879 that children at Smithtown told of a haunting at Burns-Watson Farm. The Haunted Guide records the newspaper’s account, not the haunting: nothing in it was ever established as fact.

Sources: The New Dominion, 1879-06-28, p. 3.
