History, Legends and Lore is what you’ll experience with #Ghosts915 in the Downtown El Paso ghost tour. This two-hour waking tour will start at The Historic Wigwam, the saloon once owned by John Wesley Hardin himself, and take you on a paranormal tour through historic downtown El Paso. Hear about the beginnings of El Paso at Ponce’s Rancho, how the city grew with the railroads and was known as the Six Shooter Capital of the World. This and much more as we walk the historic streets of DTEP. We meet at the Society office, The Wigwam Museum. This building, which rests on the foundation of the original Wigwam Saloon, once owned by John Wesley Hardin, is the Trost version of The Wigwam Theater and the State Theater. Our museum houses a personal collection of items that recreate El Paso’s past. From the Chinese, Gunfighters, Brothels, Saloons, and much more, walk with us and step into El Paso’s Haunted History.
