From gruesome murders to ghost sightings, a collection of historical stories ranging from terrifying Texas to spooky South Dakota.
 
The Wild West is infamous for its outrageous stories, cowboys, and gun battles. But the region is also known for its ghost stories, unexplained deaths, bizarre murders, and peculiar burials. This book features numerous tales of true crime and odd phenomena from the frontier—from an investigation into a series of massacres that a female suspect claimed were committed by a religious cult to a body buried in the middle of a road and much more.
 
Drawing on newspaper reports from the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, it’s a chilling tour of the farmhouses, saloons, graveyards, and gallows of the West.
