Legends and Hauntings of the Jersey Bayshore

Historian and paranormal investigator Greg Caggiano explores the rich history and ghostly legends of New Jersey's Bayshore.

There is perhaps no area of New Jersey richer in history than the northern section of the famed Jersey Shore, known as the "Bayshore." Stretching from the Perth Amboy area at the lower section of the Raritan River to Sandy Hook, the coastline has been witness to Lenape Indians, early European explorers, pirates, American Revolutionary War battles and skirmishes, a World War II coastal defense system established to protect New York City, notorious Prohibition-era mobsters and rum-runners, and numerous murders, some of which are unsolved to this day. This has led to not only three centuries of history but endless myths and legends, and rumors of ghostly encounters and hauntings.

Historian and paranormal investigator, Greg Caggiano, has worked at two museums within the Bayshore, both of which were haunted. In this book, he delves into some of New Jersey's most famous stories and expertly weaves historical documentation with his own paranormal research and personal experiences. Both history lovers and paranormal enthusiasts will be captivated by stories about popular sites such as the Spy House and Strauss Mansion to lesser-known points of interest. You may never view going "Down the Shore" the same way again.
