Abandoned Home In Bodie, California 'Ghost Town' Gives Us A Peek Into The Past (PHOTOS)

What's even weirder is the location of this eerie abode.

It's not every day we come across an abandoned home -- especially not one like the "Murphy House" in Bodie, California's "ghost town."

What was once considered a thriving mining community in the Bodie Hills, has been left a desolate strip of abandoned homes, taverns and other structures after the last mine had closed in the 1940s. According to Urban Ghost Media, several visitors have reported supernatural experiences here, including specter sightings.

While we would be too chicken to visit this place at night, we can't help but wonder about all that went down in this tiny, eerie abode when the town wasn't so, well, haunted.
