Deadwood Bullock Hotel Ghost
While vacationing in Deadwood 2 summers ago I was walking down the street with my Aunt early in the morning and as we walked by the Bullock Hotel I saw a handsome man sitting on the bench in western gear. As my Aunt and I were walking into the hotel I mentioned him to her and she hadn't noticed him so we walked back outside and he was gone even though it had only been a few moments ago that he was sitting there. When we walked into the hotel and saw the statue of him and that it said something like he was a ghost that never left the place I had an eerie feeling that maybe I had seen him.
This weekend I purchased a book called The Roadside History of South Dakota and while looking through it I saw a picture of a man that looked exactly like the ghost and when I read the caption next to it I realized it was a picture of Seth Bullock. I'm looking forward to coming back for a visit to Deadwood and will definitely stay at the Bullock Hotel instead of the Holiday Inn Express and maybe I'll get to see him again.

I used to work at a radio station on Deadwood main street in the 1980's called KSQY. We were across the street from the Bullock hotel. Many of the d.j.s claimed to have seen strange figures in the hallway and heard strange noises. One overnight d.j. saw an old prospector standing in the newsroom behind the glass.
