Scary Nighttime Exploration of the Abandoned Mine and Cabins Where Three Miners Were Murdered

Показать описание
Murder Gulch is where the three Gates brothers — Ben, Joseph, and Luke — dug a profitable silver mine back in the late 1800s. Unfortunately, word got out about the success of their silver mine which cost them their lives. An unknown person rode across the desert and up into Murder Gulch late one night while the three brothers lay sleeping in their three separate cabins outside the mine’s entrance. Each brother was swiftly and savagely killed with a single gunshot to the head. The murderer made off with an unknown amount of silver ore and money and was never identified or caught. The Gates brothers' mine was worked sporadically by other miners in the years afterward, but interest in the mine and general area slowly dwindled and finally died in the 1940s. Not much is left of the remote mining area these days as the desert has slowly and successfully reclaimed its land. Nobody lives there anymore. Some say, however, that the ghosts of the three Gates brothers still haunt the abandoned mine and cabins in Murder Gulch.

Intrigued by the stories, I decided one night to hike to Murder Gulch and the Gates brothers’ abandoned mine and cabins. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the mine was fairly extensive with impressive timbering. The cabins are still standing but are in varying stages of decay. Outside one of the cabins I discovered what appeared to be some kind of void directly under the surface of the ground. Perhaps this was where they had stashed their money and silver ore that the murderer stole 150 years ago. Who knows?

Well done Frank. Regardless of the time period, there have always been soulless animals who have preyed on decent people. RIP to the three brothers.

it's a shame the last cabin couldn't be saved as a tribute to the three brothers, and thank you for another great video

Wow Frank, that's the best video in a long time. The backstory on the Gates bros. brought it all to life. And I must say the first 250+ feet of that mine was about the sketchiest I've ever seen. Reminded me of the time years ago when you were exploring a mine somewhere and a rock fell out of the ceiling about 20 feet ahead of you. Remember that? Anyway, good times, pal.

Hi, I am Australian, I am near 10 years Sub as well. It's good to see your doing well, able to present good content still. What is fascinating is, your old Mines are not full of water like the Australian Mines are.

Hi Frank, I hope you are doing well. Those rock falls sure look like they will definitely ruin your day if they give while you're walking by. Have a great week!

The timbering and gobbing is beautiful in this mine. Been a subscriber for a few years and you inspired me to go out and explore a lot of mines myself. I have actually been retracting a lot of your explorations from your old videos in San Diego county around Julian/Banner and around Pine Valley/Noble Canyon. I have not been out in the the more remote and secret places like this. I will have to start studying more topo maps!

I'm puzzled, the sound of the first shot must have been heard, I'm supprised one man could kill all three while they slept.
Great video as always.
