The Haunting
Bowdoin Park/ old Haunted Mansion site is a reportedly haunted prison or jail in Wappinger Falls, New York. Reports tied to the site usually focus on a tragedy or violent past linked to the location.
Reported account from HauntTracker: Believed to be haunted by Sigfried who was a prisoner of war in a war camp that was on that spot. He was put to work in the kitchen and killed himself by putting himself in the oven.
There is also a tree just outside of the building that was used to hang Indians and you can feel them when you touch it. In the attic, which was used as a makeup room, people have seen a telescope floating as if someone is looking for ships. There are also other parts of the park that are haunted.
If visiting, treat it as an active public or historic place and follow posted rules.
