Tori leads off with Tombstone, Arizona and a couple of the locations in the city itself. The Birdcage Theater is one of the most haunted spots in the town and draws patrons to this day. The beginnings of this legendary town is firmly entrenched in the US’s collective psyche. And of course Tori had to cover Boothill Cemetery because, cemetery. Krys follows up with the tale of Reeder Road right back in our home state. This road has seen tragedy and legend of all sorts. And of course the trope of the hitchhiking ghost. She follows up with the tale of the Wort Hotel in Jackson Wyoming. Fires, murders, and very helpful ghosts happen to be in residence. The amount of tales from this stretch of road is impressive. Tori follows up with a blurb of an abandoned amusement park in Japan and the fact that time seemed to miss it completely.
