Beyond the historic buildings and scenic river lies a rich, dark past, filled with unsolved murders, Russian spies, mob-related bombings and vicious crimes. Yes, Salida is more than a tourist town. It is a place with a sinister past. This tour is PG-13 and offers an unfiltered look at true crimes from the past and in modern times. Well-researched and 100% fact-based, this tour uncovers a shadowy side of Salida that is unknown to many longtime residents.? ?What to Expect. See the location of the very first crime in Salida, go deep into the details of a vicious lynching (never before covered so completely), hear the details of an unsolved modern murder, learn the dark side of the world of prostitution (untold in other tours), and hear about the first murder in town (over a woman, no less). You'll also visit the exact location where a Russian spy hid in plain site and see the building thought to have been bombed by the mob.
