Ghost Town is the original and most
famous area of Knott's. After the popularity of the Chicken
Dinner Restaurant exploded, Walter Knott thought it was necessary to
give his patrons something to do while they waited their turn to
eat. He wanted to build something as a tribute to the Old West and
the pioneers who opened the west to the world.
