Bodie , CA has got to be the best preserved and most haunted Ghost town in the World. If you have never been there it is definitely worth the trip to see this Town from the 1860's frozen in time. To help keep this national treasure alive just go to the link www.bodiefoundation.org/ and for more vids on Ghost towns, just click this link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZPoIJAAD_ig.html and smash that like button .....smash it HARD !!!!!

Very cool place! The first time I was there back in the 70s most of the buildings were still open to the public. Then people started stealing things, like the altar cloth in the methodist shurch that had, of all things, the 10 commandments embroidered on it. Wrote one little girl arriving, "goodbye God, I'm going to Bodie.":

During the Caldor fire, hubby & I "relocated" to bridgeport for 3 weeks. (First one kicked out, last ones let back in.) I love ghost towns, so we spent a couple of days exploring Bodie. I went there with my grandparents when I was very young. Another favorite we would visit often when I was a kid is Drawbridge. We'd sail from Palo Alto to Alviso every year (Not much of a harbor, but the clubhouse had a bar, kitchen, sturdy tables & a player piano!) then we'd follow the train tracks up to Drawbridge & poke around, looking for relics. Great memories! I didn't find the town part of Bodie to be all that haunted, at least not in a bad way. It was the hilly area out past the mine and on the other side just beyond the small graveyard that I got some really bad juju vibes! If you haven't driven down into the Reward mine down by Lone Pine, I highly suggest it! (Serious 4wd is an absolute must and, yeah, it has a few unsettling resident spirits, too!)

Back in the 60's my parents took the family to Bodie. While we were there we were told a story about when a mill was shutting down. People were bidding on the large old electric motors in the mill. One person bid far too high and none of the other bidders thought they could make any money of scrapping the motors at that price. They won the bid *and* made a lot of money. Turned out copper would have been too costly to get to Bodie, so they wound the motors with silver wire made from the mine metals output. The bidder when examining the motors scratched the winding and saw silver and covered it back up with grease. Then they made the *too high* bid :) From Bodie we drove a very bad road to Aurora. Which looked far different than what you'll see on RU-vid today. The graveyard had far more headstones and the hill it was on was full of rounded black rocks (including the road up to the graveyard). They turned out to all be geodes, I cracked a lot of them open with an old Estwing rock hammer - good times.

JEFF! You old scalawag, you're in one of my most favorite places, been there many times over the years, I never tire of that place, your mind runs away with you while walking the streets. Of course I am familiar with E. Clampus Vitus, a very important group keeping mining history alive, much much respect. I was in Bridgeport in or around 2011 on a fishing trip, staying in Bridgeport we had gone to the historic hotel and restaurant on main there and what do you suppose we saw? E. Clampus Vitus was holding an indoctrination ritual there! Quite amusing too! There was a line of oh about 20 men sitting dead center along Hwy 395.....ROWING! Ya know, like in a boat! Except right down the center of 395, singing 'Row Row Row Your boat" felt honored to watch. Also in Bridgeport is one of the original generators used to power Bodie, it was built, if my memory is correct by French engineers and yes they did believe that if the line curved too much electricity would fall off! Seriously! I liked the inserted documentaries that you used, the colored version was narrated by Hoyt Axton, Im sure you know who he is, I have that video. What is the name of Black and White version that had the people who still lived there? Hey thanks a ton for this, Bodie is such a special place. OH and have you seen the movie Out of the Past with Robert Mitchum? Was the film that started the detective noir type films, well part is filmed in Bridgeport, Twin Lakes and Independence. Thank you Jeff, really did enjoy this.

Jeff…. I need to add something here. Why isn’t there an Emmy for RU-vid videos? This is certainly a candidate.

Jeff, have you visited Telluride Co.? I did many years ago while camping with my Grandparents. At that time there were plates and silverware on the tables just where they had been left. But, knowing sticky fingered idiots today there prob isn't much at all left. Our visit started early morning, and while walking around just looking as we touched or took Nothing, being Respectful of what had been left behind. I was walking alone at some point and heard the Whistle of the Silverton Train, which we know hadn't operated for quite some time. And yes it was daytime, and no one else heard it. So, a Special Memory/Moment for me. I'm torn TBH about returning, as I'm afraid of what has been Stolen over the intervening years.

Granted I haven’t been to Bodie yet but I’d argue Virginia city is the most haunted town. Of all the places I’ve investigated vc takes it. Over tombstone Arizona although tombstone has some wild stuff too. I’ll have to check it out this summer.

I worked a small clame at the top of Lucky Boy pass, not far from there. It was fun blasting and benching, the andesite. The problem was when they found gold the partnership got weird and greed ended that venture.

Story goes that one winter ol Jake got to suspecting someone was stealing his firewood. Suspecting but not knowing for sure ol Jake comes up with the idea to hollow out a fire log and put a stick of dynamite in it. Well sure enough he found out who the polcat was.
