Tales from the Tombstones

Among the weathered stones of Sunset Hills Cemetery, the restless stories of Bozeman’s past stir once more. Join Extreme History for Tales from the Tombstones, an immersive experience filled with history, mystery, and encounters with those who have long since passed beyond the veil. Among the spirits returning to tell their tales is John Bozeman, the ambitious town founder whose violent and mysterious death in 1867 still raises questions more than 150 years later. You’ll also meet Libbie Hayes, a notorious madam who spent more than two decades in Bozeman’s red-light district, inhabiting a shadowed world of vice, survival, and scandal. And they are not alone. Along the way, you’ll encounter even more characters from Bozeman’s past. Wander among the headstones as the dearly—and not so dearly—departed emerge to recount stories of murder, misfortune, ambition, and secrets carried to the grave. The dead may rest beneath your feet, but their stories refuse to stay buried.
