Here's what Far & Wide had to say about the spookiest town in all of California:

"This former Gold Rush town had everything you would expect from the Wild West: outlaws, tavern brawls and violent executions. Many criminals were hanged from a tree that continues to be called Hangman's Tree — and, yes, it's as creepy as it sounds. Other spots were spirits tend to roam around are the Historic Cary House Hotel and, somewhat randomly, the Placerville Hardware Store."
