Some say the Mohawk Valley has a lot of hauntings in it's history. Dennis Webster gave a presentation about his new book, Haunted Mohawk Valley.
The novel takes a look at the history behind some of Mohawk Valley's most haunted locations. Webster says readers may be surprised to learn about supernatural at the Stanley Theater in Utica, the infamous Old Stone Fort of Schoharie and even on the Oriskany Battlefield.
"They may find some crime stories that they never heard of. I dug through the archives and historical records. I tried to find stories that i didn't know about and I've lived here my whole life. I figured if it was interesting and i didn't know about it, perhaps the readers wouldn't know about it either," says Dennis Webster, author.
The book contains over a dozen crime stories ranging from the 18th century all the way up to 1973.
