The Hudson Valley area is busy with the bones and colorful history of odd characters and unsolved crimes. It would take a paranormal detective to make sense of some things. Of course, author and self-described Ghost Detective Michael J. Worden happens to fill that bill.
Worden has participated in paranormal and historical murder investigations from Tomkins Cove to Port Jervis and points beyond, putting his professional police skills to work in the world of unsolved crimes and the paranormal, in locations as diverse as battlefields, cemeteries, asylums and old jails to historical spots and private homes
Worden will visit the Sloatsburg Library on Tuesday, October 14 to discuss the ABCs of ghost hunting and other paranormal encounters as he highlights of his many ghostly adventures and investigations. The program begins at 7 p.m. and is free and open to the public. Register online or call the Library at 845/753-2001 to sign up.
An active adventurer in search of the oddities around us, Worden recently visited Stonehenge and Avebury in England as part of his research on stone sites in the Hudson Valley — Worden and popular paranormal investigator and storyteller Linda Zimmerman are working to document Hudson Valley stone sites that include balanced rocks, constructed chambers and stone circles.
The trip to England also included a celebration of the life and times of Joy Division’s Ian Curtis in Manchester, where former band member and subsequent member of New Order Peter Hook played the entire Joy Division catalog at a special Christ Church concert in Macclesfield.
Borden’s talk at the Sloatsburg Library is part of a trifecta of local engagements that includes an appearance at the Suffern Free Library on Thursday, October 14 and Greenwood Lake Public Library on Friday, October 15, which will also feature Linda Zimmerman and the Mysterious Stone Sites of the Hudson Valley.
