FREE ZOOM TALK: GHOST TOWNS IN MISSOURI AND BEYOND

Find out what St. Louis Prime Timer grew up in a town that is now a ghost town!

Abandoned buildings, paranormal folklore, and historic relics cast an eerie and intriguing atmosphere over Missouri’s ghost towns.  Although the phrase “ghost town” might call to mind the tumbleweed-strewn roads and abandoned wooden storefronts of the Old West, Missouri’s ghost towns tell a different tale.  A detour through these rural locales reveals stories of a changing world and devastating acts of nature.  Depopulated or simply forgotten, many have fallen into disrepair. Others still have remnants and artifacts as proof of their former heydays.  Some maintain a sparse population with a firm hold on their heritage.  This talk will cover Missouri’s ghost towns and will look at some curious ghost towns in other states.

All Prime Timers will be sent the Zoom Link for this free talk by Doug Schneider.
