What happens when a dead outlaw becomes a sideshow attraction? Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger travel to Washington, Maine, to trace the bizarre origin of Elmer J. McCurdy—a failed criminal whose story took a shocking turn after death. Unclaimed and embalmed, his body began a decades-long journey through carnivals, sideshows, and roadside attractions. Over time, the attraction became so ordinary that people forgot the truth: the “prop” hanging in plain sight had once been a real human being. One of America's strangest true tales of crime, death, and sideshow legend begins in small-town Maine.
