The Wild Afterlife of Elmer McCurdy: Train Robber, Mummy & Amusement Park Prop
Ever heard of a train robber so bad that he found more success as a corpse? Elmer McCurdy’s life was a series of spectacular failures—botched robberies, mistaken trains, and blown-up safes. But his real adventure started after he died. Preserved with arsenic, he was passed from carnival to wax museum to haunted house, even making a surprise appearance on The Six Million Dollar Man.
💀 This is the story of the outlaw who found fame in death.
