Explore ghostly locales like Rush's empty mines, the long-forgotten history of War Eagle Mill and East Calico Rock's "ghost town within a town."

From the relics of Dinosaur World to the quirky remains of Dogpatch USA, uncover the weird, tragic and unexplained.

Heather Woodward is a psychic, paranormal investigator and writer who has spent more than two decades chasing ghosts, uncovering lost histories and asking questions most people are too polite--or too scared--to ask. Based in Northwest Arkansas, she specializes in exploring the forgotten corners of the Ozarks, where abandoned towns, haunted ruins and buried secrets still hum beneath the surface. She's the host of the NVus Alien podcast, where she digs into conspiracies, high strangeness and the weird undercurrents of American history. Ghost Towns and Forgotten Places of Northwest Arkansas is her latest deep dive into the quiet places time tried to erase and a love letter to the landscapes that still hold secrets, if you're willing to look.
