Elmira, New York, has a long, rich history that is both dark and glowing with the spirits of yesteryear. From being a stop on the Underground Railroad to housing Camp Rathbun - a Union Army barracks turned Civil War Prison Camp - to harboring the various spirits of those lives taken involuntarily and those who took their own lives, Elmira and her surrounding cities offer more than a couple mysterious and haunting locations to explore.
Spirits in any locale will linger, emit energy for long periods of time before making themselves known. Sometimes, they do these things out of habit, an unwillingness to admit their current status of mortality. Other times, they can be scary, simply trying to send a message or complete some unfinished business, but with a bit of patience and heart, there is usually a reason to be found.
So, come visit Elmira and share your adventures with the spirits of those who are among us and the spirits of those who once were.
