Weird 'Haunted' Virginia City
Following the bright lure of shiny Golden and Silvered dreams, many of the unfortunates who visited and lived in early Virginia City found instead the counterpoint theme of Misery, Suffering and Death. This addendum to the "Weird" volumes is not some coy narrative to share how townsfolk softly expire before they become afterlife citizens.
Real people lived here that have been forgotten; that led lives that are now unknown; their stories written, but decaying in dusty corners. But no longer.
