roots at Deadwood's saloons and brothels did so in a ferocious and

ghostly activity as industriously as the town's former inhabitants
dug for gold--and strike it just as rich. Greet Calamity Jane, Al
Swearingen and a host of other characters as ready-made for
haunting as they ever were for television.
