The Lower Manhattan Slasher & the Legend of Cropsey

Today we are diving into the darkness of New York City to prove that real-life monsters are far scarier than anything you’ll see on a movie screen. We’re revisiting the summer of 1981, when New Yorkers realized that while they were lining up for Friday the 13th, a very real "Lower Manhattan Slasher" was stalking the subways and parks with a razor. From there, we cross the water to Staten Island to peel back the layers of the "Cropsey" legend—the campfire ghost story that turned out to be a horrific reality living in the shadows of the decaying Willowbrook State School. It’s a reminder that the boogeyman doesn't need a mask when he’s hiding in plain sight.
