Eccentrics and Mad Scientists

In this episode of New England Legends, we explore the castle of inventor John Hays Hammond, Jr. who experimented with everything from remote control to séances; we dance the night away at Madame Sherri’s castle ruins near Brattleboro, Vermont; and we go in search of Connecticut’s Leatherman – a leather-clad vagabond who traveled an endless route between the Connecticut and Hudson Rivers
