Offbeat Traveler: Ghost towns around the world
Halloween is right around the corner, so this week we bring you ghost towns around the world.

Can it be that a curse protects what remains of Bodie? According to legend, bad luck latches on to anyone who steals from the town. Park rangers say dozens of former visitors have returned stolen Bodie swag, including nails, parts of a clock and old bottles.
