“Ghosts of Pelham” Talk at The Manor Club Zoom Meeting on Monday, Oct. 26

Pelham Town Historian Blake Bell will speak on “Ghosts of Pelham” at Zoom Meeting on Monday, Oct. 26 at 7:30 pm. The meeting is open to the public.

His presentation will include illustrations from his soon to be published book.

More than forty Pelham ghost stories have been  referenced in print and passed from generation to generation for nearly two hundred years. In his book, Mr. Bell categorizes the stories within Sections which will begin with carefully-documented historical context as background. For example, the Section on “Native American Hauntings” include four chapters, each devoted to a different Native American Pelham ghost story. Each introduction provide the appropriate documented and end-noted history in the Pelham region before proceeding to the chapters.

Participants in the Zoom meeting may submit questions via Chat that will be read by moderator Maggie Klein.

Registration is required. Send an email to [email protected] and access codes to the Zoom meeting will be sent by return email.
