Reviews
"Fort Totten is said to be haunted by several ghosts; visitors have heard footsteps, a voice speaking in a foreign language, and a woman’s voice in the restrooms. Others have seen the auditorium doors swing open by themselves. The historic battery has the apparition of a screaming woman. The battery is opened 10 am to 3 pm on Saturday and Sunday."
"Nice place, not a place you should go out of your way to see though, many more nicer places in New York and Long Island"
"View from Fort Totten park in November."
