Exploring Abandoned Mines and Unusual Places | Scary Nighttime Exploration of the Abandoned Mine and Cabins Where Three Miners Were Murdered @AbandonedMines11 | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
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?
