There’s this rock at the corner of Spook Rock Road and Airmont Road in Rockland County (not quite Monsey, but that part of the planet). It has the words ‘Spook Rock’ carved into it, and there’s some plaque just below it, but it’s so high up that I can’t get a good look at the inscription. It might have something to do with the early European settlers, or (more likely) it might have something to do with the Native Americans who used to live here.
The thing that truly creeps me out is that in the autumn someone (no idea who) puts … a pumpkin onto one of the adjacent rocks. I don’t know it it’s meant to simply be decorative and festive and autumnal. Or if it’s an A”Z offering of some sort.
Someone must know something.
