Description

Part of UK Ghost Story Festival 2026.

The Wild West – prime territory for Gunslingers, Gamblers, Sheriffs, Deputies, Comanches, and Cavalry. But those gulches and prairies and one-horse towns sometimes offered a hiding place for haunting spirits too.

Darrell Buxton, editor of ‘We Belong Dead‘ magazine, takes a journey through the history of spooky cowboy movies – expect spaghetti, Duke Wayne, Eastwood, Woody Woodpecker, and much more. That treasure map leading beneath the lonely ranch over on the outskirts might just hold a few surprises in store…

Purchase a pass to attend multiple events at the UK Ghost Story Festival 2026 at a significant discount. These are priced at £80 (full festival) or £35 (Saturday events only).
