There must be something that really motivates ghosts to haunt Phoenix. Maybe it's the heat, or maybe they just really like the city. Either way, it's clear that these spirits are here to stay!

The Sonoran Desert has been a mysterious and mystical place for hundreds of years. The mysterious disappearance of the Hohokam people, who used to live here, has given rise to much speculation. The Hohokam were an ancient people who developed the first urban society in the Salt River area. They created an impressive irrigation system that is still used today. The Hohokam were a thriving and flourishing culture, until their sudden and mysterious disappearance in the 1400s.

When early European settlers arrived, the desert was a savage wilderness, drawing many dangerous and unsavory characters to the city in its early days. Locals drank heavily, played cards, and most of all walked the streets armed and ready to combat the outlaws and natives that loitered. Violence was common, political gang fights were common, and justice was swift and personal. Elections often ended with shootouts.

Any city with a history this drenched in blood is bound to be home to some paranormal activity. The ghosts of past tragedies and crimes still haunt the city streets, and you can feel their icy presence as you wander the darkened alleys.
