The Ghost Town in Archer County that Hollywood Made Famous
Well looks like you guys dug my last ghost town story, so how about another one?
Just in case you didn t read my previous story on Sunshine Hill in Wichita County, you can check it out here. I saw some people requested more and as long as you keep reading them, I ll keep writing them. Today, we stay in Texoma, but move on over to Archer County.
This ghost town is actually mentioned in a novel by famed local author Larry McMurtry and also in a movie by the same name called The Last Picture Show. The ghost town is called Anarene. Now in the movie the town is referred to as Anarene, but in the novel it is called Thalia. Also in the sequel Anarene is mentioned in the movie Texasville .
Are You Aware of the Ghost Town Right Here in Wichita County?
Do we have any ghost towns in our area? Turns out, yes. Right here in Wichita County we used to have the town of Sunshine Hill.
When you think of a ghost town, what do you picture in your head? Me personally, I picture an abandoned old west style town with no one in it. In reality, it looks something like the picture above with random decaying buildings in the middle of nowhere. Turns out Texas has several, over 500 to be exact. So, are there any in our neck of the woods?

Civic Memory Working Group
THE CITY-Announcing the publication of the Civic Memory Working Group’s report and its topline recommendations,
which propose ways for the City to more honestly and effectively commemorate important historical milestones, protect historic and community resources and develop new monuments and memorials.
Mayor Eric Garcetti himself reminded, When you lose an elder you lose a library.
Public facing monuments and memorials are so important and they have to be about what people care about and at bare minimum: the naming rules and processes must be made open and accessible!
In that spirit, the lad from Sunshine Hill in Studio City, who avoids Nextdoor because it s more abusive than fun, submits the following Oral History and map to the highly talented team at Past Due: Los Angeles Mayor’s Office Civic Memory Working Group.
