The Haunted Record

New Mexico

21 sourced records. Reports are attributed claims, not proof of supernatural activity.

Las Cruces · New Mexico

Amador Hotel

The former Amador Hotel is associated with reports of shadowy figures, unexplained flashlight behavior and scratches during ghost tours. A playful presence called Annie features in the local account. These stories accompany the building’s nineteenth-century history and preservation efforts; current access depends on restoration arrangements.

Dawson · New Mexico

Dawson Cemetery

White iron grave markers at Dawson commemorate workers killed in the coal community's devastating mining disasters. Deborah Cobb's article connects that documented memorial landscape with later visitors' reports of drifting figures, low voices and lights resembling miners' lamps. Those sightings belong to the cemetery's reported folklore, distinct from the historical deaths it commemorates.

Mesilla · New Mexico

Double Eagle Restaurant

The restaurant describes its resident-ghost tradition as a reconstruction from local recollections, old newspaper material and private diaries. The historic adobe setting is tangible; the story of two lingering spirits is presented by the business as a ghost tale. Its account lets readers examine that attribution directly.

Las Cruces · New Mexico

Doña Ana County Courthouse and Jail

This former courthouse and jail has been featured on Ghost Adventures. New Mexico tourism records claims of shadows, cold spots, and objects moving. Television coverage establishes a media connection, while the proposed supernatural causes remain unverified. Check permission before visiting.

Fort Stanton · New Mexico

Fort Stanton

Fort Stanton’s military and tuberculosis-hospital history became the subject of Ghost Hunters’ Proof of Afterlife episode. The historic site confirms filming in November 2019 and describes staff concerns about reported activity. A later New Mexico Magazine interview records a site historian’s skepticism, providing useful context alongside the television claims.

Chama · New Mexico

Foster's Hotel

New Mexico tourism records staff and guest accounts of cries and gasping sounds inside this hotel, restaurant and saloon. Local stories attach identities to the supposed spirits, but the reported sounds and those explanatory legends are separate claims. The location remains part of Chama's frontier-themed visitor history.

Pecos · New Mexico

Holy Ghost Campground

New Mexico Magazine gathered conflicting accounts from people familiar with this forest campground. Some described footsteps, shadows or whistles after dark; another longtime local reported generations of peaceful visits. A story about a colonial-era priest supplies folklore, but the article acknowledges that its historical basis is uncertain.

Albuquerque · New Mexico

Hotel Parq Central

Before becoming a hotel, this building served medical and psychiatric purposes. State tourism recounts former patients' and later visitors' claims of voices, moved objects, and feeling watched. Those experiences are attributed reports, not clinical or historical proof of a haunting.

Albuquerque · New Mexico

KiMo Theatre

The KiMo's ghost tradition centers on a child killed in a 1951 explosion and offerings left by performers. New Mexico tourism explicitly notes that the theater's general manager is skeptical. The tragedy is distinct from later stories about interference with performances.

Santa Fe · New Mexico

La Posada de Santa Fe

Guests and employees have described an apparition associated with Julia Staab in the historic house incorporated into La Posada. New Mexico Magazine records stairway sightings and an alleged voice. Speculation about Staab's health or death should not be mistaken for established biography or evidence of haunting.

Mesilla · New Mexico

La Posta de Mesilla

A Neighbors Magazine feature records a visitor’s claim of a white-shirted man appearing and vanishing in La Posta’s hallway. Other stories involve breaking glasses, odd smells and disturbed aviary birds. The restaurant’s reported activity is separate from the Double Eagle’s better-known legend nearby.

Las Cruces · New Mexico

Las Cruces Railroad Museum

The former passenger depot is associated with stories of four peaceful spirits and displaced objects. Neighbors Magazine also reports that longtime museum employees had experienced no such encounters. That disagreement is part of the record, alongside the building’s earlier role in passenger rail service.

Deming · New Mexico

Lewis Flats School / Adobe Deli

The former Lewis Flats school building, later the Adobe Deli restaurant, was investigated by Ghost Adventures in 2018. The episode centers on employees’ reports of unsettling experiences and the property’s collected objects. Its supernatural interpretations should be separated from the school-to-restaurant history of this single location.

Los Lunas · New Mexico

Luna Mansion

Cody Polston includes the Luna Mansion in Ghost Stories of Central New Mexico. The publisher identifies it among the region's reputedly haunted buildings, establishing a specific reading connection. Current visitor access and the historical basis of individual reports need checking beyond the book's promotional description.

Las Cruces · New Mexico

Old Memorial General Hospital

The former Memorial General Hospital served Las Cruces from 1948 to 1972 before other uses. Neighbors Magazine reports employees seeing figures and unexplained elevator behavior, and notes an authorized 2010 paranormal investigation. These claims concern the older building, not the city’s later hospital.

Albuquerque · New Mexico

Painted Lady Bed & Brew

Owner Jesse Herron described experiences during the property's renovation and his years living there, including a sensation of weight on his bed and a girl he said he saw in 2020. New Mexico Magazine interviewed him in 2026. The former saloon now accommodates guests and hosts literary events.

Las Vegas · New Mexico

Plaza Hotel

The Plaza's Byron T. Mills haunting narrative appears in Donna Blake Birchell's hotel collection. The alleged presence is linked to a former owner. Readers can separate the building's ownership history from the claim that its former occupant continues watching over the property.

Mountainair · New Mexico

Shaffer Hotel

Ghost Stories of Central New Mexico features the Shaffer Hotel and reports associated with its rooms. The publisher confirms this location-specific connection. Its reputation can be explored through the book while keeping reports of paranormal activity distinct from independently documented events and present-day access.

Cimarron · New Mexico

St. James Hotel

The St. James grew from Henri Lambert's saloon into a frontier hotel. John Mulhouse's overnight account examines its bullet-scarred history while challenging some famous-guest claims. He describes stories surrounding rooms 17 and 18 and reports that his companion heard creaking nearby, while he himself slept without encountering the celebrated rose-scented apparition.

Cloudcroft · New Mexico

The Lodge at Cloudcroft

Reports at the Lodge include shifting objects and unexplained light changes, often attributed to Rebecca. New Mexico Magazine presents her disappearance as popular legend. The hotel and its Rebecca-themed storytelling are real, while the supposed chambermaid's dramatic backstory requires evidence beyond repetition.

Carlsbad · New Mexico

Trinity Hotel

Donna Blake Birchell's book identifies the Trinity Hotel with Miss Ruby, a figure said to attend to rooms and play pranks. The publisher confirms the hotel's inclusion. These are reported traditions surrounding a real property, not a verified identification of an unseen visitor.
