Ghosts and Legends of the Vegas Valley, Haunted America

Beneath the glittering façade of the Strip lies a ghostly history. The mob, celebrities, gamblers and travelers have all left their mark on the Vegas Valley. From Bugsy Siegel to Tupac Shakur, famous--and infamous--ghosts mingle with the crowds that flock to Las Vegas. Rumor has it that the spirits of Redd Foxx and Elvis linger in their favorite places, while Liberace is said to appear in all the museums celebrating his life. Paranormal activity abounds within the adobe walls of the Old Mormon Fort, home of the oldest standing structure in Nevada, and the desert wind carries tales of tommyknockers in the mines. Join author Heather Leigh as she shines a light on the dark history behind the Neon Capital of the World.
