In the 1940s, a candy salesman stopped in for a drink at the Shoshone Bar in Lovell, Wyo. He hasn't been seen since, but he has been heard. According to legend, if you leave cash on the bar, the "Candy Man" might take it.

Over the years, patrons have reported strange noises coming from the basement, appliances mysteriously turning on and off and some have even accused the spirit of trying to steal their money.

The Cowboy State's most haunted saloon was the site of a recent investigation by the Wyoming Area Spirit Posse, a group of women who travel around the state examining urban legends and claims of paranormal activity.

During the past year, the local ghost hunters have conducted inquests at the Irma Hotel in Cody, The Historic Hotel in Greybull, the Heart Mountain Relocation Camp and several haunted cemetaries. Check out their YouTube channel here.
