DEATHTRAP A doll hung tangled in bushes outside the home of Eugene Contrubis, who died after drowning inside his house in the Midland Beach section of Staten Island. A storm surge during Sandy turned the beachfront neighborhood into a virtual lake, with water nine feet deep in some spots. The storm led to eight deaths in Midland Beach, the highest concentration of Sandy-related deaths during the superstorm. (Photo: Todd Heisler / The New York Times; caption via The Times)
