Background[]
Billy Silver was a renowned Hollywood actor who acted in another known movie called The Blue Pirate, as shown on an ad in The Mystery Examiner. He was eventually assigned for the lead role in The Last Ranger to replace the previous actor who couldn't ride a horse, he demanded to be paid in gold ingots.
In June 24th, the San Andreas Fault moved, producing earthquakes in the small town, causing one of the producers, Brett Samuels, to fall in the nearby ravine. Amidst all the commotion, Billy Silver stayed inside the Bank, fearing that ghosts roaming the town were after his gold ingots. Billy's paranoia was tragically proven right when, during the recording of a scene outside the Saloon, a ghost jumped off the balcony and stuck its fingers in his head, killing him almost instantly.
