The Ghosts of New York City | Documentary
Показать описание
When we think of the United States of America, what is the first image that pops into our minds? For some, it’s open countryside and rural villages dotting the various terrains across the country, a symbol of agriculture and fruitful endeavors. For others, it’s trekking across mountains and hillsides, scavenging the westward deserts on an adventure to pursue the ultimate dream. For many, however, America can best be symbolized by its most bustling and populated metropolis: New York City.
While the concrete jungle is void of green foliage or the natural landscapes seen across the United States, it still houses the dreamers who chase those same goals. NYC is the focal point for artists and engineers and workers across all sectors to come together to fight for their innermost desires, a place where creativity and commerce thrive in synchrony. It’s a haven for anyone looking to escape, while at the same time network and develop a relationship with not just other people, but with an entire city, as well. That’s the kind of open arms the Big Apple is known for.
New York’s history is as vast as its diverse population, as well. Originally a Dutch fur trading settlement known as New Amsterdam dating back to 1625, New York was eventually given to the English troops in 1664 before becoming the province of New York and one of the original 13 colonies to fight for their independence from monarch rule in 1775. By 1790, it held the highest population in all of America, a record that would go unchanging over the next 230+ years. Throughout the 19th century, New York City became an international icon, the hub for both national and international trading in the United States, as well as the hot spot for European immigration into America. These developments, combined with the booming economy entering and exiting its harbor every day, pushed New York City well on its way to defining the success of the USA by the 20th century and remains to be true to present day.
With roots dating back to colonial times, and a centuries-long pattern of hosting millions upon millions of people, New York City is not without its paranormal side, either. No city on Earth with a rich history like New York has functioned without a darker underbelly, with stories full of supernatural entities and creepy characters lurking in dark subway tunnels or shadows of a fog-filled alley near the port. They may not be what defines New York City, nor may they be the most documented aspect of its history, but one thing’s for sure; there’s more than one reason why they call it the City That Never Sleeps…
Let’s take a deeper dive into a few of the notable and a few of the lesser-known cases of the Ghosts of New York City.
