Prospectors Road in Garden Valley, California, is considered haunted by a bearded, threadbare prospector ghost who was murdered for his gold during the Gold Rush era. Witnesses have reported seeing the transparent figure walking, and some have heard a whisper of, "Get off my claim". The spirit has also reportedly entered homes, moving objects and locking doors. The ghost is believed to be a prospector who, after striking gold, got drunk and boasted about his find. He was likely murdered by greedy claim jumpers who wanted his gold. His spirit now haunts Prospectors Road, a narrow, winding, and sometimes little-used route in California's Gold Country. People have reported seeing a tall, transparent figure with a beard, dressed in old work clothes, sometimes hovering and other times walking through the grass. The ghost is said to whisper "Get off my claim" to travelers. The spirit has also been known to enter local homes, causing objects to move and doors to lock or unlock on their own. Witnesses have also observed tall grass parting as if someone were walking through it, even when no one is visible.
