When I visited VC last summer we went to a hotel/saloon right on main st. The owner showed us a room in the back which is used for cold storage, But way back in the day they had used to use the room as a makeshift morgue as it is the only place where it is naturally colder than anywhere else. So they could store bodiesthere with ice and not worry that the ice would melt .Also this particular place is well known for it's ghosts.Please could somebody tell me the name of this hotel? Thank-you

I saw a TV program on Sci-Fi channel last night and they had a ghost hunting expedition there. I believe the name of the saloon is the Washoe Club.

If you are looking for ghosts, check out the comments on tripadvisor.com for the Gold Hill Hotel located in Gold Hill, NV, just a mile south of Virginia City. The Washoe Club in Virginia City has its share of ghost stories also.
