Highlights

Bartlett is fascinating because while it has earned it's reputation as a true ghost town, it also has a deep history. From being the first town in Texas with electricity to foiled bank robberies to tragedies and corruption, Bartlett's story is much more than what meets the eye. Learn about Bartlett's history as a movie set, walk through once gorgeous abandoned buildings, and hear the crazy stories of this forgotten town. It's unlike any tour you've been on before.
