Overview

NO Mafia cases, no ghosts -- We will visit the locations of 3 bizarre and mysterious murders from the "gritty city" era (1980s + 1990s) of New York City. One of the cases is unsolved - we will discuss various theories and attempt to solve the case. The other 2 cases - though technically "solved" - left many tangled strands that have never been fully untangled. If you enjoy true crime cases that get you "hooked" - this is your tour. If you're interested in the gritty/sleazy/strange REAL New York City of the 1980s and 1990s - this is your tour. If you like true crime podcasts + books + documentaries - then you will LOVE this tour! Location -- we will walk through the lower half of Central Park, and then take a brief city bus ride to the edge of Times Square. Guide -- your tour guide (Eddie) is NYC's leading true crime historian. He has collaborated with The New York Times and Oxygen TV/NBC Television regarding true crime. He is a licensed attorney and longtime resident of New York City.
