Two Guns, AZ, is one of the many cursed ghost towns scattered throughout the Southwest. It’s a long-abandoned town, but tourists still stop to see its ruins along Old Route 66. Set on the rim of a canyon, the strange little town was the sight of a tragedy involving two Native American tribes.
A man named Harry E. Miller showed up in the late ’20s, leased property from the Cundiffs, and constructed a full-blown tourist trap. He played up the area’s turbulent history and claimed he was full-blooded Apache. It’s unclear if this claim was true. But some wonder: was the downfall of Two Guns Miller’s fault alone, or did the land have a curse long before he blew into town?

You’re saying gila wrong. It’s pronounced HEE-LLA.

Thank you for this, from Arizona! I love this state
@9:05 $15,000 in legal fees in the 1920s doesn't sound accurate. Maybe they adjusted for inflation and gave what the number would be today.
What are the odds that curse involves something indigenous and a spat over something valued or some weird stuff..Oh lol I was right😂😂😂
My Dad purchased 40 acres in Two guns and wanted me to move there and live. Glad now I didn't cuz even the lizards looked like they were miserably bored!
Was never a town but a roadside attraction
Bro I saw the thumbnail two days later I'm driving by it so had to stop and check it out and watched the vid.
There's not a bridge in sight here I can't even tell we're it was supposed to be lol
……..I found the bridge
Sounds like everybody got a little of what was coming to them. Attack a village, get trapped in a cave. Put dangerous animals in a zoo, get bit. Live in Arizona, things catch on fire.
The Bathrooms at every Truck Stop in America is cursed .
This guy was insane, you don't sell human skulls especially when the death happened in such an awful way, of course whoever buys the skulls will have nothing but bad luck, I'm Native American, my tribe is in California, I do believe in curses my grandmother taught me well. They need to rebury the skulls in a special ceremony and hopefully that will ease the Apache's spirits and help them rest.
Gila Monster is pronounced like Hila, not Gila!
Good content. Too much cringy dry humor. Super annoying.
I been there before they have a drained pool that is full of graffiti, i actually ended up skateboarding it lol
The town of two guns is originally on the north side of the freeway along the railroad tracks, built before the zoo in the late 1800’s
I can believe that negative energy is tied to it and in that way it is cursed!
It is incredible that he sold some of those bones.
Great video!
The Apache death caves! Been telling channels to make a video about this forever!!
Gila = Hee-lah. Hee-lah. Not Gill-a.
Sincerely,
A Native Arizonan ❤️
Bahahaha; Hell, MI freezes over every winter.
🙄 it's pronounced "HEE-LAH".
A band of farmers and sheep herders killed 40 Apache warriors? Really
Hay how are ya. Hay how are ya.
its all rubbish
Charlatan
3 word phrase? Your ex arrived!
all american land is native land. should never be disputed.
da’nihi Naiche!
There is no evidence any of this happened. Everything that looks like ruins in the cave was made by the last land owner. This is a total waste of time
Update. The Navajo are arsonist. Good for them. – the Scooby-Doo gang
ROWT 66? I'm out.
My dad had a real scary experience out there
The curse of harry Miller it seems
This is a stupid video and I'm unsubscribing.
Because you can't let something like that slide. Best phrase ever just slaying.
The voice of this video just makes me think of Ron Burgundy from Anchorman.
Well you travel a few miles down the road to Twin Arrows casino….lol.
Fun Fact, the exit for Twin Arrows is not far away, a former truck stop with only one of the arrows currently standing. It has an appearance in the movie "Forrest Gump" during the running part, where he falls into the mud, wipes his face off on a tshirt that inspires "Have a nice day".My name is Bicycle Bob and I approved this message and I remember being there in the early 90's when it was still open and the huge, nasty mud puddles there.
Two Guns was a tourist trap with fake ruins built by Miller. The “death cave” was also a made up story to bring tourists in.
It’s pronounced Heela monster
Interesting summary of the town history, but the stupid parenthetic phrases that the commentator keeps throwing in are just that: stupid. Makes it tiresome to listen to.
The curse is how Mama Nature is treated for MAn as Ma. Changing their bodies to claim Mama Nature they have left bare.
I understand it was tragic what happened there by two guns in 1938 when the nuclear crater was made John Wayne and Ford were filming on a ridge not too far from two guns just some miles out in the desert when the nuclear explosion went off that made that crater it's still a radioactive area and you might understand I would never go to that nuclear crater
Interesting to imply native humans of NA were so ethically and emotionally developed that they would never sell out their own culture for selfish gains 🤨
It's now "the gorilla monster" 👹 since people forget we have accents and dialects within languages.. billions of different regional American accents and dialects alone.. he might not have a Latino accent or dialect so will pronounce words differently. Not one or another us actually 100% accu-rat.
I wish. The curse didn't effect the meek the inncocent the pure so hopefully. The curse won't effect gods chosen n. Children. Before. Folks curse. Somone. Should tryi. Understanding. For some
Been there
