Show Notes

Today, I want to tell you about two winter mysteries that have haunted New York for over a century. The first is about Dorothy Arnold, who disappeared on a cold December day in 1910after leaving a bookstore in Manhattan. And the second is about a devastating Christmas night fire in Staten Island in 1843,and the legend of the witch who started it.
