Guido and others report that Barry has passed away. We called and found out that Barry died suddenly last spring of a heart attack in his sleep, but his business partners are keeping the store open. "It was a shock to all of us," they say.

Hi,
My namew is Angelo Castellano, owner of General Nitemare Antiques. Along with Barry and my other two partners, Rocco Castellano, and Ed Orr we began to transform General Nitemare to show off the treasures that were hidden. As you know, Barry was not with us long enough to enjoy this transformation, since he passed away June 2005. We, the remaining partners are committed to keeping Barry' s spirit and General Nitemare alive and in RED HOOK!!!! In any event please stop in when you are in the neighborhood and you can see some great and fun antiques and dont be surprised if you see some neighborhood regulars having coffee and you are welcome to join us.
Thanks again
Angelo Castellano

the store IS still open. barry partnered with some folks back in April and they have "rennovated" the store (ie, cleared the debris).
no telling yet whether it will be anything like the same General Nitemare, but there were a few good things there yesterday Lisa Lynch on Sep 19, 2005
