Goliad, Texas Ghost Tales Haunted Places in Texas For those of us that believe in ghosts, Texas is a great place to start your search. Here is a short list of Texas Haunts made famous by ghostbusters of all ages. The Alamo One of the most famous landmarks of Texas, the Alamo, has been reported as being haunted. Said to be haunted by many restless spirits, the Alamo as well as the grounds and surrounding buildings have been reported over the years to contain ghostly apparitions. Hauntings were sighted right after the 13 days of battle were over. Mexican engineers were ordered by General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna to tear down the mission, brick by brick, but they refused when ghostly hands emerged from the walls, some holding glowing torches. But what really stopped the engineers in their tracts was the sound of a loud, ghostly voice warning of terrible death should they not stop tearing down the Alamo. Rumored to be the founding monks scaring the engineers and not ghosts, the Alamo was eventually rebuilt instead of removed. Other ghostly sightings reported       at the Alamo and in and around the area include apparitions emerging from the walls of the Alamo, the ghostly sighting of a monk that walks into a wall that was formerly a doorway, along with the murdered children’s sounds of laughter and the sobs of a woman reportedly heard inside the gift shop. Not only have the apparitions been reported, but the   shaking of furniture inside Alamo Hall, lights going off and on, and windows and doors opening and closing have also been reported by visitors over the years. Bandera Pass The Bandera Pass in Kerr County, Texas has been reported to be haunted by ghostly spirits. The apparition of a headless horseman has been sighted riding from Bandera, Texas to Center Point, Texas. The headless horseman was a mail carrier who lost his head to Apache Indians in the 1800’s. There have also been sightings of a ghost wagon full of settlers who were massacred by the Apaches. On certain nights sightings of the settlers have been spotted riding through local pastures. The Catfish Plantation Restaurant Another popular haunt in Texas is called the Catfish Plantation Restaurant located in Waxahachie, Texas. The Catfish Restaurant was built in a Victorian House that was originally constructed in 1895. Former occupants of the house have been purported to still be in residence in the Victorian. The current owners of the Catfish Restaurant have reported not only sightings of the spirits, but moving objects, mysterious noises, and clocks that reset themselves.
