About this Event

Join us in person at the Historic Smith Flat House for a special one-night-only screening of Ghosts of the Gold Rush in Placerville. This 66-minute documentary brings Gold Rush history to life through historical accounts, expert interviews, immersive storytelling, and firsthand reports of unexplained encounters.

From Hangtown’s violent past to a deadly mining disaster and a mysterious family M**der tied to gold, the film explores the era’s dramatic stories and asks a haunting question: Can history leave something behind?

The Historic Smith Flat House has a story of its own: it once served as an important stage stop along the Placerville–Carson Road. Experience the film in a historic Placerville setting and reserve your tickets today!
