My Favorite Haunted House: Finally For Sale

When I first moved to the neighborhood, almost the entire row of houses on the east side of Waverly between Greene and Gates were boarded up.  Now, just one remains.  It's long been a favorite of mine, as I watched its neighbors get redone and once again become beautiful homes. Now, this last shell standing is for sale, through Brooklyn Properties.
