Five Long Island, New York independent filmmakers have come together to produce this labor of love feature anthology based on local haunted legends that have plagued their childhood nightmares. The four short films are based on the hangings at Sweet Hollow Road, the "lady in white" ghost of Mary's grave, the abandoned Kings Park psychiatric facility, and the Native American tale of Lake Ronkonkoma. The fictional films are preceded by documentary segments that explore the legend's origins and feature interviews with experts on the subject such as a paranormal investigator, and the authors of 'Weird NY' and 'Ghosts of Long Island: Stories of the Paranormal' along with historical photos, location footage, and testimonials by locals who have been effected by the legends; supernaturally or otherwise. LOST SUBURBIA is a not just for Long Island natives, but a must see for anyone interested in history and the supernatural.
