Tombstone may be synonymous with some of the most infamous cowboys in history, but the stories you’ve most likely heard merely scratch the surface of what was truly an unforgiving place and time. Look beyond the shootouts and gunfights to reveal Tombstone’s tragedy that was, unfortunately, not uncommon in the days of cowboys, horse thieves, and the hand of the law.
Tombstone Terrors uncovers stories of the old mining town’s turbulent past and real hauntings experienced by residents and visitors at the most haunted locations. Discover the real stories behind the outlaws that ran the roads of Tombstone, leaving death and destruction in their path where the dead would rise from the dust to torment the living forever.
Big Nose Kate’s Saloon
Big Nose Kate, whose real name was Mary Katherine Harmony, was a naughty, promiscuous woman who opened her saloon in the 1800s. The joint was a watering hole for big names such as Wyatt and Virginia Earp, as well as Doc Holliday. But some of the old-time guests never left. A miner called Swampy allegedly hid silver somewhere in the building, and now his ghost still lingers to protect his treasure.
Bird Cage Theatre
Once called the wickedest and wildest night spot between Basin Street and The Barbary Coast, The Bird Cage Theatre operated for eight years, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Before the silver mines dried up, twenty-six people were murdered within its walls. The raucous nights that once filled the theatre aren’t gone, and these calamitous spirits have even physically pushed many visitors.
The OK Corral
If you think you know the history of the OK Corral, think again. This livery and horse corral has seen many iconic faces out looking for trouble. Sharpshooters and gun-slingers have bloodied the name of the OK Corral. Even today, cowboys and villainous lawmen still haunt its dusty grounds, eager to kick up some mischief.
What to Expect on Your Tombstone Ghost Tour
Tombstone was once a bustling and rapidly growing city, larger than Los Angeles in the early 1880s. The town boasted 110 saloons, 14 gambling centers, a bowling alley, and many brothels, hotels, and dance halls. But underneath the town’s growth and success, there was conflict. Tombstone was a melting pot that attracted anti-slavery and pro-union Republicans and Capitalists, who were at odds with Confederate sympathizers and Democrats of the time, who left the ravaged South for a new and better life – some outside the law.
Look beyond the shootouts and gunfights to reveal Tombstone’s tragedy that was, unfortunately, not uncommon in the days of cowboys, horse thieves, and the hand of the law. Tombstone Terrors will take you to the exact location where the remnants of a botched hanging remain, along with the spirit of the victim who was hanged.
