Bullis House Inn haunted

The Bullis house Inn which was built in 1906 is located by Government hill near the Old Pearl Brewery. According to many years back after talking to one of the Inn keepers an Indian Chief spirit roams the second floor.

Geronimo was help capture in the Bullis grounds. In the back of the old Bullis House there is an old building that was a make shift jail to house prisoners.

After passing by a few days ago I am not sure if the Inn is still in operation from what it seems. I will be by sometime to look. It would be a shame if the building shared the same fate as many surrounding buildings within that neighborhood as it seems like a long forgotten part of San Antonio.

Santa Muerte also known as Saint Death

Interesting story that ran a few or so weeks ago on KSAT news on a saint that derives from Mexico. Santa Muerte has been associated as the narco god that protects them from other rivals and the law.

Whats interesting is that people are looking at the Santa Muerte in conjunction with the Catholic faith. Just to reference the Catholic church has no association with the saint or promotes it.

Santa Muerte steams from the old beliefs from the Aztec gods and has been combined with Catholic beliefs of praying to Saints for interventions. She is described similar to what the Virgin de Guadualupe in the robes standing on the world with the moon casted on the bottom.

Day of the Dead has been associated with the Santa Muete Saint which from research has shown where the saint was created from.

 Is Santa Muerte evil? It depends who you ask. Those who believe in the Saint say that she protects those who ask for her help. The Santa Muerte comes in different colors depending on what cause or offering you are requesting. She comes in a red, blue, black, gold, and green. Each has its own meaning.

Sparkman in San Antonio Texas

I recently read an interesting thread on the San Antonio Board about a legend which took place in the 1980s. This is the first I have heard of this urban legend but according to the board, Sparkman was apparently a demon entity that roam that locatio at the San Antonio Produce Terminal Market. I use to go many times to buy potatoes for my uncles business but is the first I have heard of this story. I hope there are people who can shed light on this legend.

Anyway here is the thread I got it from Sparkman devil

Hot Wells more information on the location is it haunted?

Disclaimer: Location is on private property and from the Russell Rush reference you can see the location by appointment only.

Hot Wells as you know was once a resort which used the water springs from its neighboring Insane Asylum which is not to far from the location. The sulfur springs reach a degree of 100 degrees and the owners claim many cures from the springs. Burn down as its fortunate would have. The location is in bad shape from what I remember many years ago.

More information on Hot Wells.

I recently asked the very question is Hot Wells Resort haunted? Thank you mix 96 for answering my question.

Six Flags Fiesta Texas Haunted?

My first job I would have to say was at Fiesta Texas as a theater host. I worked there for two summers but one thing I do remember was the Zaragoza Theatre which at that time had Festival Folklorico.

 I remember many accounts when we worked late my manager would swear that there was someone in the top balcony watching the show. Even though we had no guest on the balcony level. I was sent to go see but never found anything.

I figured my boss had been seeing things since the late double shifts. Until one day a co worker and I were stationed at the front of the side of the theater when I saw what appeared to be a woman watching the show on the balcony. I dismissed it but later my co worked asked if anyone was up at the top balcony.

I told her that the top balcony was locked and no one was there. She looked at me kinda scared but I confirmed to her what I had seen as well.

I do remember telling one of the dancers from the theater about our suspense and on several accounts they have told us that they have seen someone on the balcony watching them. They just dismissed it as someone from our staff who decided to go to the balcony to watch.

Anyway its cool to see that the Russell Rush ghost tour confirmed what I had suspected.

Anyway had an experience at the Zaragoza theater?
