History of Valhalla

Origin of name

It gained its name when controversy arose over the naming of a post office in the 19th century. According to local historians and published work, the wife of a postmaster was a devoted fan of Richard Wagner and she shared the composer's interest in Norse mythology. Her preference led to the choice of name Valhalla, after the heavenly hall of slain warriors in that mythology. The area still maintains its association with death through its world famous cemetery area.

Valhalla also became a part of the strange obsession of Mark Guglielmo, who grew up in Bedford, Westchester County. He was sentenced in Florida for the murder of his wife which had taken place in that state during 1994. Guglielmo transported her remains in the trunk of his car to Westchester County where he disposed of her dismembered corpse at two different locations near Valhalla. Guglielmo then took a mock Viking sword and helmet which had been made at a Westchester County fair for burial at Peggys Cove in Nova Scotia, Canada. He did this because he believed that Leif Ericson's Vikings had once landed there. This same Viking association between Nova Scotia, Canada and Westchester County, New York was also made by Clive Cussler in his book several years later.
