San Francisco Cares

In a recent article in InsideBayArea.com from the San Francisco area, the Travel Editor presents a nice write up on the Lizzie Borden B&B as a possible Halloween destination.

In case you are one of those people who likes to pack up and go elsewhere to observe and/or celebrate Halloween, and you haven’t decided where to go this year, here are some suggestions from the American Automobile Association, which recently compiled a list of “America’s Spookiest Travel Destinations.” Most are open year around so if you like to have spine-chilling experiences at any time — Groundhog Day, perhaps? — they’re there for you.

Also recommended are
The “Ghosts of Savannah” walking tours.
“Haunted History” tours in New Orleans.
Myrtles Plantation Mystery Tour in St. Francisville, La.
Emma Crawford Festival and Memorial Coffin Race and Parade in Manitou Springs, Colo.

They also feature a photo of the house to accompany the piece. Kewl!

Mondo Lizzie Borden, Episode 7: NOT Lizzie Borden

Being a collector of the weird and fabulous as it relates to the Borden case, I have files of these images saved during the past twenty years. And I would like to share them with you now. Laugh, gasp, chuckle, or rage, these photos were all on eBay. For a price. I used to write the sellers and let them know they didn’t have a Lizzie, but soon gave up on that practice. They didn’t care. Even though they were committing fraud by the sale of the image as a true Lizzie Borden. Oh well.

Here we go. Enjoy.
