Abandoned towns filled with the past memories of what used to be. The western part of the US is filled with them. And so we ventured our way into one of the more well-known and still standing ghost towns in Colorado, St. Elmo. No it is not named for the patron saint of Sesame Street, nor is it named for the 80s movie starring Rob Lowe. No, this town gets it's name from something crazier.
Listen to Lisa give us the history of a family that not only spent all of their lives there, but also stayed around long after the town had ceased to really exist. Listen to Jake tell us stories about how this family continues to live there to this day, getting angry at rule breakers. And listen to Davis as he gives us a quiz surrounding City Slickers and The Ballad of Buster Scruggs.
This ghost town is only the second of our four part series all on the pioneering times of westward expansion in the United States. Next week's episode involves one of the more infamous cryptids and their supposed location. But, until the, be sure to hear all about this paranormal ghost town.... Possibly.
