In this soft-spoken sleepy story, I tell you the stories of four ghost towns in America:
- North Brother Island, New York, a small uninhabited island that once had a large hospital and kept the infamous Typhoid Mary in quarantine for over two decades.
- Bodie, California, a well-preserved mining town that boomed in the 1870s thanks to the discovery of gold deposits. I tell you a little about the California Gold Rush, Express companies like Wells Fargo, and the decline of this once-thriving town.
- Real de Catorce, Mexico, another mining town that can only be accessed via an underground tunnel and is a pilgrimage place for Huichol people and Christians.
- Villa Epecuén, Argentina, a lakeside resort that was submerged and spent 2 decades under salty water, until the water withdrew and revealed an eerie landscape.
