Another terrifying book from Garcez. I found this one even scarier than the first, with tales of a lecherous spirit--conjured up at a ouija board session--who forced himself on a young girl. Luna Mansion, haunted by Josefita, the original owner of the house. No one is quite sure whether it was she who caused all the lightbulbs in the dining room chandeliers to explode or all the glasses on a dining room table to shatter. A witch's curse that haunted four generations. The image of the sorcerer's sister, dressed in a long black lace dress and shrouded from head to foot in a long black lace veil will haunt me for a long time.

Still more New Mexico chillers from Garcez, this time in a bi-lingual edition. I was particularly horrified by State Senator Mary Jane M Garcia's story of how she and her friend Joan were slowly strangled by an invisible force. Garcia tells of many ghosts in her home village of Dona Ana: a woman in white, a dark man with a "smothering hand", mysterious victrola music, and a ghostly woman gaily dressed in a ghostly ruffled skirt that made its own appearance without the woman. Other stories tell of a "cold whirlwind" where a thermometer showed an instant drop of 30 degrees and the sudden materialization of an old-fashioned oil lamp in mid-air. Garcez's informants draw some unforgettably terrifying pictures: a rug and a loveseat dragged along by an invisible force, carrying a brother and sisters to the other side of the room; two young girls cowering while unseen hands smacked the blanket hung in their bedroom door.

As Garcez says in his preface, "I must emphasize that the stories contained within these pages are not intended simply to amuse. They are not fanciful tales to be recounted on stormy nights to groups of wide-eyed Boy Scouts." Indeed they are not—these are wonderful stories edited from first-hand interviews. Garcez has a unique touch—first in getting people of enormously differing cultural backgrounds to tell him their stories; second in capturing each witness’s unique voice. Many of these ghosts sound dreadfully violent: Witness the horrifying manifestations experienced by Art, a caretaker at the Grant Corner Inn: vicious pounding noises, the stench of rotting meat, a bone-freezing blast of cold air that killed Art’s houseplants. Or the woman who witnessed La Llorona, walking on water, calling for her lost sons, trying to lure the living to the river. Or the former brothel in Taos filled with the screams of a woman pleading with a man to leave her alone, the sounds of breaking glass and smashing furniture and a malevolent chill. Another terrifically terrifying book from Garcez!

A faceless man, a ghostly nun, and New Mexico's most famous spirit, La llorona, who weeps forever for her lost children. Based on interviews with people who experienced these ghosts, there are some real chillers here, particularly the stories of witchcraft.

If you're a Western buff, you'll want this collection of ghost stories, unsolved mysteries of the West, and shoot-em-up stories about legends like Pat Garrett, Billy the Kid's killer.

Gentle-spirited ghost stories from ten haunted New Mexico historical monuments or parks like Ft. Union, haunted by U.S. Grant, or White Sands where a ghostly bride and groom dance across the dunes.

Really engaging and scary tales of the ghosts at the northeastern New Mexico Boy Scout Ranch. The ghostly bugler of Rayado who appears with the greenish, decaying face of death. The skinned ghost of Penitente Canyon, just one of the tortured corpses whose unearthly screams echo through the Canyon. The many ghosts of the St. James Hotel. The Blue Light Shaman and the ghost of the Lost Boy Scout of Urraca Mesa. No made-up tales-around-the-campfire these—but true and terrifying stories from a haunted land.
