From the late 1870s to mid-1880s, Tombstone, Arizona, enjoyed
impressive growth and prosperity as a result of the discovery of
major silver deposits nearby. As in many boomtowns in the American
West, its sudden prosperity attracted businessmen, outlaws,
grifters, gamblers, prostitutes, and preachers. It wasn't long
before there was a desperate need for lawmen and law enforcement.
Outlaws like Johnny Ringo, Curly Bill Brocius, Buckskin Frank
Leslie, Burt Alvord, and a handful of other lesser known criminals,
all faced off with the legendary lawmen, including the Earp
brothers--Wyatt, Virgil, Morgan, and Warren--who to one degree or
another represented law enforcement in this wild, no-holds-barred
town. In addition to Tombstone's reputation as a setting for
colorful outlaw-lawman confrontations, it is also associated with a
number of compelling and baffling mysteries. Ghosts are reported to
roam the old taverns, hotels, opera houses, and other buildings.
Eerie and unexplainable sounds and sights have been associated with
Boot Hill, the famous cemetery, as well as the New City Cemetery.
Cold Case: The Tombstone Mysteries investigates the real stories
behind the mysteries, including unsolved crimes that await a
solution. These old west cold cases continue to attract researchers
and investigators to the town too tough to die.
