Book excerpt: Virginia City is Nevada's most haunted city. Ghosts and history abound in this city built on the side of Mt. Davidson from the riches of the Comstock Lode. The famous and the infamous have walked these wooden sidewalks; the miners, and the millionaires, the gunslingers, the ladies of the evening, and everyone else who dreamed of silver. Here in Virginia City, Mark Twain began his writing career, and witnessed the public hanging of a convicted killer. Some say his lonely ghost still walks these streets. He is not alone. Hauntings are everyday occurrences on the Comstock. When the sun goes down, the ghosts are lively; especially in Virginia City.
