Mirando City, Texas Ghost Tales I was working on the Slater ranch on the Aguilares to San Ygnacio farm road back in 2003 over night on a gas well. I had been reading a book about Texas Ghost stories earlier in the day and had laughed at most of them. Superstitious old fools I thought. On the well site  that I was working on, a man had been killed during the rig move by a winch truck that struck him. A steel bar cross had been erected on the spot of the incident and was still there 3 months later when I was there.  At about 4:00 a.m. I took readings from my equipment and returned to my truck. Sitting in my truck facing the full setting moon and the ominous cross with only my interior lights on caculating the results of my readings I detected movement out of the corner of my eye. I thought to my self that it was the flagging on the cross ( for better visibility ) waving in the wind and ignored it. Again I noticed movement and ignored it. On the third time I looked up and saw the sillouette of a man back lit by the moon at almost ground level. I thought it was most likely an illegal       alien and turned on my head lights to see who it was. There was nothing there but the cross. I can't tell you how creeped out I was. Thank God day light was only 2 hours away.
