Laid out as a burial plot in 1878, Boothill is the final resting place for the victims of the
OK Corral battle and the good and bad of
Tombstone.
Boothill Graveyard was opened in Tombstone, Arizona in 1879. Most of it's occupants suffered violent or un-expected deaths with their boots on, this is the reason why the early pioneers named it Boothill. Some people believe that ghosts are spirits of people that died unexpectedly, violently, and/or at the hands of others, gunfights, hangings, etc.
