Ghosts of the New York City Subway

Mind the gap. And whatever is waiting in the dark.

Every single day, millions of people ride the New York City Subway, completely unaware of the dark, tragic, and terrifying history buried just inches beneath their feet. Beyond the bright lights of the active platforms lies a sprawling subterranean wasteland of abandoned "ghost stations," forgotten trolley terminals, and tunnels paid for in the blood of the men who dug them.

In Ghosts of the New York Subway, you will descend into the gritty, claustrophobic underbelly of the city that never sleeps. This chilling collection documents the terrifying "stone tape" echoes, phantom trains, and aggressive entities reported by late-night commuters, urban explorers, and terrified MTA track-workers.
