Midnight Noises
Both locals and visitors have reported hearing strange sounds at night, such as laughter, crying, and voices emanating from the old saloon, as if there was still a party there. Some claim to have encountered spectral representations of people dressed in historical attire prowling the streets at night. Allan Mathews, a historian for the Bureau of Land Management, has also had unsettling experiences in Garnet.
He Was A Skeptic
Generally, Allan wasn’t the type to believe old-fashioned ghost stories. His presence in Garnet at the time of the occurrence was only the subject of verifiable, scientific investigation. However, he had an experience that caused him to doubt the veracity of those antiquated tales. He would never be the same after experiencing a ghost town in Montana.
