There was an old decrepit house on Oak Drive in the north bronx which we called the haunted mansion. It was surrounded by dense woods, and really looked the part. Kids used to cross themselves when walking past on their way to Immaculate Conception School, a few blocks away. In 1963, it was torn down and replaced by a high-rise co-op called Oak Towers. And at age 13, to my great surprise, we moved there!
