Montana Ghost Town Is One Of The Most Terrifying Places
Montana’s Haunted History Runs Deep

A Childhood Fascination With Ghost Stories
Ever since my mother bought me the book "The Thing at the Foot of the Bed and Other Scary Tales," I've been fascinated by ghost stories, even though they scared me — isn't that the point of them, after all?
Montana is rich in ghost stories, with a few notable ones found in Butte, including both the Dumas Brothel and The Miner's Hotel.
However, it's a certain Montana ghost town that Love Exploring says you need to visit if you love getting a good scare.
The Montana Ghost Town That Made A National List
Love Exploring detailed locations across different states that have some of the most terrifying and haunted places in America, and only one location from Montana made the list.
The town of Bannack sprang into being in the 1860s, when prospector John White hit on gold in the region. Though the mining site is long deserted, some 60 historical structures still remain in the wilds of southwestern Montana, drawing tourists fascinated with gold-rush history and ghosts. The spirit of a young girl has been spotted around the old courthouse (eventually turned into Hotel Meade), and annual ghost tours are held come fall.
Is Bannack the most terrifying place in Montana, or perhaps it's this abandoned town in northeastern Montana?👇
