Buffalo Bill, Denver, Colorado, 1916

William “Buffalo Bill” Cody was a showman, a scout, and a legend—famous for bringing the American frontier to life on stages across the world. But in the winter of 1916, just weeks before his death, he wrote something never meant for the spotlight.

This episode uncovers a forgotten document—verified as authentic and penned in Cody’s own hand—that describes a most unusual addition to his Wild West show: a being not of this Earth. Presented as entertainment, it may have been something far more real.
