#HauntedOverlandHotel in #PiocheNevada which is far more haunted than #Tombstone, Arizona. Things actually go bump here all over the town after dark. My guests stay in this hotel on my Area 51 Adventure. I’m taking a journalist from the UK out here on Monday! . Picture taken with the #ibelux40mmf085 made by @kipon_sh! This is a great lens to shoot with a @fujifilmx_us made camera. My current favorite #Fujifilm camera is the XT100! . #hauntednevada #Nevada #piochenevada #hauntedplaces #hauntedmotel #miningcamp #westernheritage #highdesertlife #southwesternstyle (at The Overland Hotel & Saloon) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzQ2YI1lpfW/?igshid=wx40lc0kd8yw

This photo was shot wide open at F0.85 on one of the worlds fastest and most affordable lenses, the #Ibelux OR the #ibelux40mmf085 made by @kipon_sh! This is an interesting lens to capture #OldWest #Ghosttowns around the #SilverState in #SouthernNevada! #AntiquatedStreetBench on the historic #Mainstreet of #Pioche #Nevada. This is the #MiningCamp established in 1867 that truly lives up to the #wildwest hype that became the tourist trap of Tombstone, Arizona.

If there’s anything really uncanny about the #haunted #miningcamp of #Pioche #Nevada, it’s the town’s inexplicable preoccupation with realistic looking #mannequins that fill up spaces in every crook and cranny in the #Nevada community: even the laced #OverlandHotel and Saloon’s dance hall has fellow dummies. These life size dolls have their own reputation of generating spooky stories such as moving on their own and changing chairs and seating positions. Go the #MillionDollarCourthouse where an entire jury of your peers are mannequins dressed in 19th century garb. The jail out behind the court house has the most spooky energy emanating from the first jail cell while the other ones seem ordinary; it’s the focal point singularity where most of the town’s eerie vibe is at its highest concentration levels. Also, if you’re truly scared of ghosts DO NOT STAY IN ROOM 10 of the Overland Hotel. Where Journalist and Writer, Jonathan Thompson (@jt_travels) and I are stationed tonight!

The old #GilaCounty #Jailhouse in #Globe #Arizona has its fair share of #ghost stories and #phantoms running around these corridors. A county historian was was nice enough to show me around the prison that was still active and overcrowded in the 1970s. The county was forced to shut down the jailhouse due to inhumane conditions and over crowding. It sits right behind the courthouse in Downtown Glob. At this point, the #Jail is not open to the public but they hope to open it soon after some maintenance work. .

The #Historic #Ghosttown of #Lund #Utah. It's with a heavy and sad heart that I see these ghost towns and #miningcamps vanishing from off the face of the western landscape. It's either vandals and treasure hunters destroying these irreplaceable memories or the US Government and corporate partnerships who tear down century old structures like pioneer #homesteads and mining ruins, mills, and historic buildings. I see the irony and hypocrisy when the Department of the Interior is telling the public to respect archeology sites while the other arm of the guv floods Glen Canyon and thousands of native indigenous archeology and sacred sites under water or is demolishing an entire ghost town down to rubble like a historic mining camp once known as #GoldSprings west of #CedarCity near the #Utah #Nevada #Stateline. It's heartbreaking that our history (no matter your skin color/culture) is being erased by "them" and I'm seeing this process quickly destroying these places. I spent an entire day trying to document Gold Springs and it's all rubble and what a #heartbreak that is! We need to document these old places before they are gone forever. I get a strong sense that they are killing our histories to where there's nothing left but the goals and achievements of their colonialism and corporatism...it angers me to no end!

The remnants of an old #ghosttown... In the late 1800s #Utah had it's #Mormon settlements and Indian Forts to protect the "Saints" from Utes and Navajos trying to "collect the rent" from the settlers... but the truth is, #UT had it's fair share of rowdy #miningcamps full of outlaws, brothels, whore houses, gambling halls and other forms of entertainment along with countless saloons. #ButchCassidy's gang loved the freedom of the Utah territory at the time and in the center of our state was the once notorious #RobbersRoost...
