Description

The Kreischer Mansion is located just off Arthur Kill Road in Staten Island, New York.  The home was built by Balthasar Kreischer for his son, Charles, and there was an identical house built for his son Edward as well.  In 2005, the Bonanno family hired a hitman to murder Robert McKelvey in the mansion and the home is said to be haunted.
