Haunted Utah, Part 1: Salt Lake City Ghosts and Great Salt Lake Legends
Episode notes
About this episode
| Utah’s dramatic landscape holds stories shaped by migration, military history, rail travel and communities that rose and disappeared across the state. Part 1 begins in Salt Lake City before moving into mining country, mountain roads and the isolated shores of the Great Salt Lake.
The Salt Lake City stops include the Rio Grande Railroad Depot, Brigham Young Forest Farmhouse, Fort Douglas and the Victim of the Beast gravestone. Farther afield, the episode follows the White Lady of Latuda in Carbon County, the Ben Lomond Suites in Ogden and reports associated with Big Cottonwood Canyon Road. The final story examines Jean Baptiste and the folklore connected to his exile near the Great Salt Lake. Across the episode, documented people and places remain distinct from apparitions and later legend, giving Utah’s ghost stories the historical context that makes them meaningful. |
