Return to the Prairie

Ever wonder about the spirits of the Old West? The ghosts that wander the streets of one of America's forgotten states? There are more tales of hauntings in Kansas than can ever be put into one book. Each one has its own unique history. Explore Dodge City once called the wildest city in the West. The forgotten streets of Galena, once part of Route 66, were also considered the bloodiest streets in Kansas with at least one murder happening every day. Lawrence survived two bloody raids that have left a stain on this quiet college town. Fort Leavenworth, older than the state of Kansas, is still home to five Federal prisons and more than a few ghosts. Other cities, towns, and historic sites await with spirits and strange creatures lurking in the darkness. Explore their rich history and hauntings in only a way Tim Shepard knows best.
