Ghost Story of the Jamesport Manor Inn, Long Island, New York :: Ghost Stories Urban Legends

Jamesport manor Inn, Long Island, New YorkThe storyteller is a 65 year old Hispanic woman from Riverhead, New York. I roll up the story over the phone on April 2, 2006. She started off by telling me that the story took place in 1988 on Long Island. Her landlord had told her about a fantastic restaurant that she just had to go to, so on a Friday night the storyteller and her husband decided to try it out. When stepping up to the Jamesport Manor Inn she had a creepy feeling just from looking at the old mansion. She claimed that it had an eerie sort of feel to it and obviously did not look like a regular(prenominal) restaurant. Although she had just recently moved to Jamesport, she lived most of her life on Long Island and was surprised she had never heard of the restaurant. She began asking her waiter some questions about how radical the restaurant was and about the owner and such. She was told that the mansion was built in the 1800s and was obviously somewhat restored. It was recently purchased by a local townsperson and had somewhat recently subject up. The waiter began teasing that the mansion was supposedly haunted because it was so old and there were generations of families who lived and died in the house. He was new to the restaurant but the chefs and other staff at the restaurant claimed they could hear people walking around and opening and closing doors. He told her that the staff generally liked to leave at the said(prenominal) time of night to avoid being alone in the mansion, being that it was haunted. The waiter made a point of claiming that everyone else says its true as well. He had never heard the ghosts, but he was sure they existed in the mansion.My first attempt at finding information was by typing in Jamesport Manor Inn + ghosts at the search engine Google. I found an article from The Suffolk Times, a local newspaper about the rebirth of the Jamesport Manor. It included a construe of the mansion with its owners, and there was a brief paragraph on the suspicion of ghosts roaming the area. As for tales about ghosts and later use as a house of visitation repute, Mr. Whines laughed and said, Im a trained historian, so I cant tell you about that.
