I was there tonight and took a bunch of pics. I didnt expect to find anything because its on a busy stretch of highway, there was a lot of light from surrounding businesses at 10 pm and i didnt feel anything when i was looking thru the broken windows and walking around the building. Well, when I got home and looked at the pics, there is a clear reflection in one of the windows of some girl….its not one of those ghost pics where it might sorta kinda look like something if you squint or close one eye, its so REAL!!! (its not my reflection, i am a blonde and the girl had very dark hair) email me if you want to see….jennypenny210@gmail.com

This is a restaurant that is now closed. I grew up in the town, and it was once a speak-easy during the times of prohibition. There are many secret doors, and spaces where alcohol may have been hidden. It may have been used as a hotel in the past, but it was an open restaurant up until sometime in the past 7 years, then it closed.

If none of the stories were true, why would they keep publishing them and reporting them? My co-worker grew up down the street from the place and he told me that many years ago it was a speakeasy, a go-go joint (with rooms upstairs), a (gay) bar and a French resturant/bar. It is in the process now of being awarded landmark status so real estate developers cannot tear it down. There was a go-go dancer killed there in the 60’s, her body dumped in the trash bin behind the building. Her murderer is still in jail, and there are stories of her walking around outside the building at night in a skimpy outfit in all kinds of weather. She seems to be looking for a way inside. True or not? who knows, there have been many similar stories along those lines. Also the stories of Maria / Sarah who was strangled upstairs in one of the rooms ( a hooker?) still leaves footprints on the carpet when the building is empty. Again, True or not? who cares…it is still interesting having something so haunted right by the house.!!!!

I think that the woman was trying to find who killed her, so she knocks on the guests’ doors. I don’t know! What about you?

She’s probably just hungry-or wants some sex but then dissappears because she gets scared of the living-lol.

Once when I was driving by the Normandy I went to answer my cell phone, which I shouldnt have, but it was a real important call. Anyway, I spilled my Wendy’s frosty all over my lap and that caused me to drop the phone. Finally, I pulled over right in front of this house. I grabbed the cell phone and as I was saying “Hello? Hello?” I looked up to see a woman covered in blood in the front window. She was holding a cell phone in her right hand - then I heard the darkest, scarriest, slithering voice in the world come through my earpiece: “Hey..you spilled your frosty…”

I’m commenting on some people asking about the Amityville house. The Amityville horror house is not a “horror house”. The house isn’t haunted. The people that lived there, the Lutz’s, created the story. They were in over their head with the mortgage payments so they schemed this story about hauntings. And they got ALOT of money off of this place. It is NOT haunted at all. It is pretty funny reading about supposed hauntings in the home.

The place known as the Normandy Inn in Bohemia (L.I. NY) was known as the Chateau La Boheme during the early 1960s; and operated as a restaurant by a woman named Helen. It was a hangout for those of us employed as pilots at MacArthur Airport (now Islip Airport), among others. it was purchased in 1969 or so by a retired publishing executive from New York (city) named **** Freda. He and his lovely companion Winnie lived there, and ran it as the Normandy Inn, where the medeival alcoves and intimate dining room made the European cuisine taste that much better. For a short time **** even employed a sommelier. It remained a “pilot’s hangout” well beyond my departure from the area in 1989. The small bar was a great place to tell “there I was” stories. We all believed the place had been built by a Czec Baron, and that there was a beer garden before the roads isolated the structure. There were most certainly ’secret’ passageways, but never a hint of ghosts. **** was going to set up a private aviator’s club(he was devoted private pilot) in the cellar, but that never happened. Wondefful old place. I hope it is preserved.

FYI, Mr. Freda’s first name was Richard. The asterisks above prevented the publication of the common nickname for one so named.

The correct spelling is NORMANDIE INN, with an “ie” on the end. I work in Bohemia and drive by the place many times. It closed down shortly after I found out it was “haunted”. I found out via the Travel Channel on TV, no less. We were going to go around Halloween time, but that same year, the restaurant closed. I remember the medieval statues which have been stolen now. Sadly the building is in disrepair and needs much work…however, there does seem to be a glimmer of hope as a interior decorating business wants to not only buy the building and set up shop there, but also restore the building to it’s original grandeur. As they say “We will see”. I would have rather loved to see another restaurant take over the building though, this way it would be a business more open to the public. When the restaurant closed, I always dreamed of turning this building into something like the Darkside Haunted Mansion and run an attraction around Halloween. However, the problem with that is parking. There is little on site parking. But since a Haunted attraction would operate at night with most of the day business’ closed…I think a parking arrangement could be made. At any rate, I will be keeping a close eye on this place.

You know, Kimberlee, I bet your right. At a hotel in Scotland that was once a house, a little girl was murdered by two men, and now the little girl’s ghost trys to lead anyone who listens or follows to where the murderers put her body. How would that help her? I’m not shore.
