Flagstaff, AZ – Today, KNAU continues our series Dead or Alive, a look at Arizona's ghost towns. In today's episode, the dead are very much kept alive by the blurring of history and myth. An old adage in western history says that when legend becomes fact, print the legend. And as ghost town hunter Kurt Wenner describes, that's exactly what's happened at a town just east of Flagstaff.

Our series Dead or Alive is funded in part by the Arizona Humanities Council. It was recorded and produced by Diane Hope.
