Portales, New Mexico Ghost Tales I lived in the new ENMU apartment my senior year of college. At the end of the year, I packed my stuff into tubs and stacked the tubs to the ceiling. The tubs did not lean and were heavy to push. One night, I heard a voice say ''wake up!''. I woke up, wide eyed, and totally scared. When I closed my eyes and brushed off the voice as nothing, one of the stacks of tubs fall right on my head. Now, I was really scared. I left my bedroom and went to sleep on the living room couch. A few nights later, I was sleeping and heard the same voice. It offered to make a compact with me. I refused and told it to ''go away''. I had no more problems until I moved out. .

I walk today by the old land where the mobile home was and just get strange feeling as I walk by, like he's still there.
