Today, the Dakota building in New York City is famous for being the last home where John Lennon lived and for being the site of his horrible murder, but this building has a long and detailed history of paranormal activity. Even Lennon himself, who was open to the paranormal, witnessed a UFO from the window of his apartment and also encountered the apparition of a woman walking down the long halls of the building, who he named the Crying Lady Ghost. Other celebrities and notable figures who have lived in that building have also had very similar experienced. Maury Povich described the building as “very haunted”, for example.

Other night I needed a distraction from the awful news out there. This was it. Kept me up thinking about it till 4am. But it was a wonderful musing.

Lennon did LSD and other psychedelic drugs every day for years.

Can't believe the article doesn't mention how the Dakota Building played a central role in Jack Finney's epic time-travel novel called "Time And Again."

It was from that building that Simon entered the world of 1882 (from the year 1970).

I had read that the builder of the Dakotas had trouble finding backers as the project was too far from the happening places at the time. They said, ‘You might as well be putting up a hotel in the Dakotas!’ Hence the name.

The Dakota was also the apartment building location for “Rosemary’s Baby”

As long as there’s no beast named Zuul hiding in the refrigerator, it’s cool.

If Maury Povich lived there, then it was definitely haunted by Connie Chung.

(Personally, I would rather be stuck in a pagoda with Tritia Toyota)

In the book too? Maybe, not sure. It is a good book and a great NYC movie. Mia Farrow is great in it.
