Get ready everyone! This week on the Montana Outdoor Podcast your host Downrigger Dale got a hold of the Executive Director of the Montana State Parks Foundation Megan Buecking and asked her if she knew anything about the rumors that some of Montana’s Ghost Towns are actually haunted. Not only did she know about that, but she is a bit of an expert on the topic and took poor ole Rigger on a podcast tour that he will not soon forget. In fact, we are pretty sure that everyone around the podcast offices that heard Megan and Rigger’s stories will not sleep for quite some time! As Rigger put it; “I thought this was going to fun little change of pace kind of Podcast where I would hear a few quirky stories and that would be it. Boy was I wrong! I hate to admit it but hosting this podcast scared the crap out of me! In fact, I am now pretty darn sure that ghosts are real!” Yeah, don’t say we didn’t warn you but when you listen, its gonna get real fricking spooky! And in some cases, heartbreaking. Wait until you hear about the one town where almost every child in the town died in one year! In another of the ghost towns that Rigger did a little research on he found out that several paranormal studies have been done and out of those the experts have concluded that no less than sixty buildings in and around the ghost town are indeed considered hunted! So, if you dare listen now and…. sweet dreams!!!
