In today's episode, we're headed to the Govan ghost town. Sitting in a desolate part of Washington, neighboring towns were few and far between. This made it a haven for crime. The small town consisted of a post office, a schoolhouse, two saloons, and two general shops. It was an agriculture-oriented community boasting a population of 80 at its peak. Murders, crime, and tragedy swept the small town.
