Haunted Restaurants and Bars of New Mexico

Step into the supernatural world of New Mexico's most haunted restaurants and bars, where the spirits of the past linger in the shadows.

In Santa Fe, the shade of Julia Staab wanders through La Posada, once the site of her opulent home, and in Cloudcroft, the Lodge hosts its own ghostly resident, Rebecca, who once worked as a chambermaid in the very place she haunts. The colorful past of Casa Vieja in Corrales inspired not only rumors of hidden bodies but also the menu, and on the Plaza of Old Town Albuquerque, tales of spectral encounters abound.

From fine dining spots with violent histories to cozy eateries where whispers of bygone eras still echo through the halls, author Donna Blake Birchell uncovers the eerie side of the Land of Enchantment.
