In 1931 On a night cold enough to freeze your bones, a larger than life prospector, in search of a legendary lost gold mine in the wilderness of British Columbia, disappears without a trace. Known for his solid gold teeth and team of black stallions, he was a force of nature. So was he murdered? Did he fake his own death? Or was he the latest victim of a curse?
40 years earlier Slumach was accused of murder and from the gallows it is said that set a curse on anyone who searched for his hidden gold mine just before he was hanged. Since then many have sought his fortune and have met their demise.
Deadman’s Curse: Volcanic Gold is a historical mystery podcast hosted by Kru Williams from History Television's hit original series Deadman's Curse: The Legend of the Lost Gold. Join Kru and the rest of the team from Deadman’s Curse, along with historians and experts as they investigate the life and disappearance of legendary prospector Volcanic Brown, and in doing so, retrace the steps of fortune-seekers through the 20th century who went looking for a motherlode worth billions… and never came back. It’s a gold-fevered expedition through time itself and straight into the heart…of a curse.

Volcanic Brown makes a name for himself as a miner within Boundary Country in the early 20th century by making headlines for landing in jail for shooting a man in self defence - sound familiar?
We continue our escapade through the booms and busts of mining towns in BC.
