As spooky season commences, settle in for an evening of chilling tales drawn from transit’s mysterious past. But listen carefully—one storyteller is trying to fool you. Three stories are true, one is a lie, and only the audience can expose the deception.
Join this special edition of NYC’s Secrets and Lies for a journey through transit lore. Can you separate fact from fiction? The mystery awaits, as do the rewards. Identify the liar and enter a raffle to win tickets to an eligible walking tour.

Join Natural Areas Conservancy & NYC’s Secrets & Lies for a Field Trip Experience, a community event for history and nature lovers alike!
You don’t need to leave New York City to go leaf peeping! New York isn’t just a concrete jungle—and its history isn’t always what the textbooks tell you. To celebrate this season, join Natural Areas Conservancy and NYC’s Secrets & Lies for a Storytelling Field Trip Experience through Forest Park in Queens, a community event for history nerds and nature lovers alike.
We’re heading to Forest Park, to explore the Park’s natural, environmental, and social history through live storytelling. In total, it spans 543 acres (larger than Prospect Park) and it features a massive 165-acre “Forever Wild” oak forest (the largest in Queens!) and a landscape carved by the Wisconsin glacier 20,000 years ago. We’ll see trees that are more than 150 years old with fall foliage ranging from deep red to bright yellow, and we’ll visit the famous Pine Grove.
Josh Otero from Natural Areas Conservancy and Christa Avampato from NYC’s Secrets & Lies, will be your field guides and storytellers for this immersive experience into the wilder side of New York. Come ready for some fresh air and forgotten secrets. All ages are welcome.
