This Halloween you can explore two of the most haunted places in Western New York as part of a fundraising effort by the Central Terminal Restoration Corporation.
The group, along with the WNY Ghost Hunters and the Iron Island Museum Preservation Society, is hosting a ghost hunt.
You can investigate the Central Terminal, which many say is haunted by the spirits of people who once worked or passed through the old train station.
"There were so many trains that were coming through, coming back to the terminal with people that went off to war. Mothers sent their boys off to war, and some of them didn't come back. They came back in a casket, so there's a lot of energy built up here. Might be some spirits still waiting for their loved ones to come back home on the train," said Ryan Willard, founder of WNY Ghost Hunters.
On Friday, some of TVs paranormal personalities on A&E and the Sci-Fi Channel will lead the way through the terminal.
A shuttle bus will also take people to the Iron Island Museum. Some believe the spirits of children roam the halls of this former church, Sunday school, and funeral home.
There's also said to be the presence of the "shadow man" in the attic who doesn't welcome visitors.
Tickets for the Central Terminal-Iron Island Halloween Ghost Hunt is $150.
