In the season 16 premiere of Ghost Adventures, the team heads to South Dakota to investigate two iconic locations in the historic town of Deadwood. The first location is the Bullock Hotel, named after Seth Bullock, a legendary sheriff who helped shape the town's history. The hotel is rumored to be haunted by the spirits of former guests and employees. The second location is Wild Bill's Trading Post, where Wild Bill Hickok, a famous gunslinger, was killed. The trading post is now a museum dedicated to Wild Bill's life.

As the team begins their investigation at the Bullock Hotel, they learn that the hotel has been used for various purposes throughout its history. It served as a temporary hospital during a smallpox outbreak, and also housed a brothel at one point. The team interviews several employees who have had paranormal experiences, including seeing apparitions and hearing unexplained noises. They also explore several rooms in the hotel, including the infamous Room 211, where guests have reported feeling a presence in the room with them.

At Wild Bill's Trading Post, the team is given a tour of the museum by the curator. They learn about Wild Bill's life and his infamous death at the hands of Jack McCall. The team sets up their equipment and begins their investigation, hoping to make contact with Wild Bill's spirit. As they explore the museum, they hear unexplained footsteps and see strange shadows. They also discover a room that was once used as a makeshift morgue and conduct an EVP session.

Throughout the episode, the team experiences several intense moments of paranormal activity, including objects moving and doors slamming on their own. They also capture several EVPs and video footage of unexplained phenomena. The team interviews several people who have had experiences at both locations, including a psychic medium who claims to have communicated with Wild Bill's spirit.

In typical Ghost Adventures fashion, the team does not shy away from provoking the spirits they encounter. They use various methods to try to elicit a response, including taunting and challenging the spirits. While some viewers may find these tactics controversial, the team believes it is necessary in order to understand the nature of the entities they encounter.

Overall, the season 16 premiere of Ghost Adventures provides a fascinating look at two historical locations with rich histories and legends of paranormal activity. The team's investigation is thorough and intense, providing viewers with plenty of spooky and intriguing moments. Whether you believe in ghosts or not, the episode is a captivating exploration of the unknown.
