The site now occupied by the Red Garter Inn has been host to a number of businesses throughout its existence, including a saloon, a general store, an opium den, and a brothel. Though no murders have been proven to have taken place at the inn, the sheriff was often called to investigate crimes here, only to discover nothing out of the ordinary once he showed up. After a while, the tales became so frequent that the local garbage collector was hired to inspect the property for bodies. He found nothing. Today, guests claimed to see a young girl standing at the top of the stairs and to hear mysterious clunking and footsteps when no one was around. Some have even felt their beds shake or someone touching their arms.
