## Resource

Over the years, we have travelled to many places said to harbour an unusually high number of strange and unexplained events. Locations where multiple witnesses claim to have encountered bizarre phenomena, often under circumstances that continue to defy explanation to this day. In this episode, however, our journey takes us not simply to another place, but to another time. To an age of cattle drives, frontier settlements, and dusty trails disappearing into the horizon. An era of cowboys, outlaws, and prospectors. But according to some accounts, these were not the only things roaming the vast landscapes of the American frontier.
