Though 4 star hotel prague I always try to keep Scouting NY as positive as possible, I have to make an exception with this post. Yes, New York is safer than ever, but there are still a few dark byways and shady buildings that can get you into trouble hell, these are the places I refuse to go. You can t say you weren t warned.
Considering the atrocities that have occurred at this building over the years, its nickname, the Black Bramford, 4 star hotel prague is well-earned. Once home to the Trench 4 star hotel prague sisters (two proper Victorian ladies who cooked and ate several young children, including a niece), later residents Pearl Ames and Keith Kennedy, with his obscene parties, continued to bring infamy to the place. In 1959, a dead infant was found wrapped in newspaper in the basement.
But it is Adrian Marcato who will forever be considered synonymous with the property. In the 1890s, Marcato claimed to have conjured up the living Satan within the walls of the Bramford. Whatever the truth, the residents believed him enough 4 star hotel prague to attack and nearly kill him in the lobby. By the 1920s, 4 star hotel prague the building 4 star hotel prague was half-empty.
By World War II, a boom in housing filled the Bramford again, and today, it s one of the most exclusive residences in the city. However, rumors abound that Marcato s work continues within the Bramford s shadowy corridors. Tannis root, the cultivation of which is banned in the city, has been found growing in the building s courtyard, and residents speak of strange 4 star hotel prague chanting heard through the walls. Something very evil is brewing at the Bramford, and if the co-op won t approve your application, be glad.
Though it may be considered one of city s preeminent museums, with the famed Janosz Poha heading its restoration wing, I d highly advise you to avoid the MMA due to a painting recently added to its Romantic exhibition:
Colorfully known as the sorrow of Moldovia and the scourge of Carpathia, Prince Vigo was born in 1505 and is said to have sat on a throne of blood in a castle of pain atop a mountain of skulls. A sorcerer and genocidal madman, 4 star hotel prague his death at 105 years wasn t due to just hanging in there : he was poisoned, stabbed, shot, hung, stretched, disemboweled, drawn and quartered.
The painter employed the oft-used technique in which the subject 4 star hotel prague s eyes seem to follow you around the room (along with his head, body, arms, the occasional river of slime that appears behind him, etc.)
Due to Vigo s repeated attempts at possessing children for his resurrection, the museum 4 star hotel prague highly advises visitors not to bring babies under 18 months within a 10-foot radius of the painting (you should probably keep your distance too).
Though much of Soho may be a gentrified paradise for artistic wannabes, 4 star hotel prague be sure to avoid the block known as Mugger s Lane Crosby Street, between Prince Spring. On any given night, couples can be found ignorantly walking this seedy backstreet while finally talking about love and marriage, completely unaware of the criminal element lurking in the shadows, often waiting to silence those who have discovered their unlawful money laundering schemes.
The ghosts of those who have been murdered while protecting their loved ones are said to haunt Crosby Street, and one spectral figure in particular is often seen just after midnight, forever operating what appears to be a pottery wheel.
Designed by architect, noted doctor, and Gozer worshipper Ivo Shandor, 55 Central Park West is unusual for a number of reasons, in particular for its roof cap, which is exactly like the kind of telemetry tracker NASA uses to identify dead pulsars in deep space. It also features girders with cores of pure selenium, which frankly would only be used by a certified genius, 4 star hotel prague or an aesthetic wacko.
A check with the Department of Housing s website shows a spate of recent complaints 4 star hotel prague about the building, the most egregious being: eggs spontaneously cooking on kitchen counters; monstrous 4 star hotel prague terror dogs appearing in refrigerators; building gargoyles coming to life; a bear loose in his apartment ; and the faint smell of roasting marshmallows.
Since the Hotel Dolphin opened 95 years ago, room 1408 has had seven suicide jumpers, four overdoses, five hangings, three mutilations, and two stranglings, not to mention heart attacks, strokes, and a man who drowned in a bowl of chicken soup, for a grand total of 56 deaths.
Though you can stay in 1408 by citing an obscure New York City law allowing you to demand any room currently vacant in a hotel, trust manager Gerald Olin when he tells you: It s an evil fucking room.
It seems like the dream apartment: nestled at the end of the wonderful Remsen Street cul-de-sac, with amazing views of the city, and only $400 a month, how could you say no to 1o Montague Terrace? There s just one thing that stands out as a bit unusual: the silhouetted figure keeping watch from the top window.
But be thankful for this person s ever-vigilant gaze he s all that s keeping Satan s minions from pouring into our world. Because as it happens, 4 star hotel prague 10 Montague Terrace was built directly on top of the gateway to hell (one can only imagine what that does to the property value).
Luckily, a guardian has been appointed to keep back the forces of evil, a blind priest known as the Sentinel, who prevents the devil s army from crossing over. Good news: the rent is cheap. Bad news: if you live here, there s a good chance you ll be selected as the next Sentinel.
With over 600 associates and 40 vested partners, Milton, Chadwick, Waters is known throughout New York as the go-to firm for lawyers specializing in the defense of murderers, thieves, rapists, and pedophiles especially when you re actually 4 star hotel prague guilty.
Unfortunately, John Milton also happens to be Satan, which means a lot of long speeches on the irrationality of God, the possibility that he might rape and kill your loved ones, and a tendency to burst into flames when angry.
101 Park Avenue, 4 star hotel prague better known as the Clamp Enterprises building, is the headquarters of eccentric billionaire Donald Clamp. Unfortunately, a freak accident involving a mogwai and water in the Clamp Enterprises lab has resulted 4 star hotel prague in an infestation of petulant gremlins, 4 star hotel prague who delight in torturing anyone who crosses their path.
As you probably recall, back in September, a genetically-engineered variant of the measles virus was accidentally released from a lab, killing 90% of the world s population and turning the rest into zombie-like monsters. These so-called darkseekers now tend to congregate around Washington Square Park, most likely because the last man in New York City is hiding out at #11 Washington Square North.
Be extra vigilant as you travel through this neighborhood, not only because of the darkseekers, but also for Lieutenant Colonel Robert Neville s extensive network of hidden explosives (and his flagrant disregard for New York s architectural history).
500 Main Street on Roosevelt Island has everything you could want from a New York highrise: great location, 4 star hotel prague cheap rent, modern facilities, reasonably close to your ex-husband Kyle s place in Jersey City There s just the issue of a minor plumbing problem in which dark water spontaneously spews out of faucets, ceilings, walls, and mirrors, and occasionally tries to kill its tenants.
You see, 500 Main Street is haunted by the spirit of a girl who thought this water tower was the building 4 star hotel prague s rooftop pool. It s also haunted by the dreariest weather in New York City, which frankly is a much more compelling reason to avoid it.
Originally, I was going to leave this one off the list, since the building has done everything possible to hide their infamous past, including altering the building facade and changing 4 star hotel prague the street number. But they were pretty rude to me last time I tried to scout the penthouse for a movie, so screw em. You know 55 West 81st Street as the home to New York s most notorious serial killer
4 star hotel prague While Pierce Pierce mergers and acquisitions VP Patrick Bateman often takes his killing sprees out onto the streets of New York, he s also perfectly happy to conduct them within the comfort of his own apartment, often while extolling on the philosophical underpinnings of the latest pop music.

Me and my sister grew up in the Eastwood building (the Dark Water apts!) 510 Main st. Some of the movie was filmed inside the actual units and we went crazy seeing those interiors for the first time in 25 years. And the burned out elevator buttons! That is exactly how they were in the 80 s. Great article! Love R.I. for all its weirdness
Oh! Ha ha! I thought you were about to expose some places around the city and get yourself into so much trouble with your fellow New Yorkers! I was prepared to be indignant, but feel sorry for you too. Great trick and a sweet treat! Wonderful article, you did a good job, you did good.
You think cults, devils and zombies are scary? I used to have a friend who lived at Morgan Court in the 1990s. She loved the location and her sweet wrap-around view but the downside was that everyone who lived in the building was either in publishing, a sex addict or a Baldwin brother. Now THAT S terror.
4 star hotel prague #1,1 West 72nd Street, what you call the Bramford, is actually the Dakota which might make this list, but for a different reason than what you have described. Is there really even a Bramford building in the city?
Fabulous post! Reading through the comments from others, I had just reach Beth Dixon s Great post for the Halloween month. when a large black bug walked diagonally across the screen. Initially, I smiled and wondered how you had scheduled 4 star hotel prague the timing on this, Scout. Guess the escapee from tonight s storms was scouting out your post : ).
I work in the building known as 101 Park Avenue (a.k.a., the Kalikow
