An old post office in a deserted Utah ghost town made Airbnb’s list of spooky locations for the Halloween season.
The Cisco Post Office, located in Cisco, Grand County, is listed on Airbnb for $31 per night, plus taxes and fees, for the Halloween weekend.
The deal will be available beginning Oct. 23 at 7 a.m. MST.
Guests can stay at the location from Nov. 1-Nov. 3.
Here’s the description, according to Airbnb’s list:
Located thirty miles away from civilization, this deserted ghost town was once deemed, “The Richest Town in America”. The town was once home to Charles Steen, who made and ultimately lost his grand fortune after discovering uranium in the 1950s. He is a Cold War hero – supplying the United States with all of the uranium it needed. After the decline of the uranium market, the town is now almost vacant; if the thought of being isolated doesn’t spook you, take a walk through the abandoned town and travelers will find two separate spooky stays – Charles’ home and the local post office. It is rumored that he may have never left this eerie town and haunts the desolate land still looking for more uranium.
The post office has one bed and one bath, fit for a maximum of two guests. The Airbnb page indicates 90% of guests have given the location a 5-star rating.
According to the Airbnb page listing, the host, Eileen, remodeled the place after it closed in the ‘90s. There is no running water but there’s an outhouse. Mail is still delivered to a P.O. box.
But the location has a fire pit, A/C, WIFi and some scenic views.
