Old Town Albuquerque's Haunted Walking Tour

• Casa de Armijo and Plaza Hacienda

Look up at the staircase where a young woman named Victoriana is said to still watch the room she died in, and try the app's built-in EMF reader if you dare go looking for her.

• San Felipe de Neri Church and Old Town Plaza

Stand where a churchyard once held the city's dead, then hear about the Hatchet Lady and Old Sarge, a Confederate ghost still said to be guarding cannons nobody's ever found.

• The Covered Wagon

Hear the legend of Scarlet, murdered on these stairs during Prohibition, or so the story goes, before a local ghost hunter's old map told a very different story.

• Romero House and the Frances Lynn Maternity Home

Not every stop on this tour needs a ghost. This one is about the women who came here quietly, in secret, and the family home that became their refuge.

• Plaza Don Luis and Plazuela Sombra

A woman in purple who appears in broad daylight, and a courtyard where ghost hunters recorded a child's voice nobody could see.

• Church Street Cafe

Meet Sara Ruiz, a curandera who still haunts the oldest home in the city and is said to follow you home if you forget to say goodnight.

• High Noon Restaurant and Saloon

A building that was a convent and a saloon in two different centuries, now home to the Lady in White, The Gambler, and glasses that slide across the bar on their own.

• The Albuquerque Museum and La Jornada

Meet Sparky, a bronze dog who's been stolen more than once, then hear the real history behind Old Town's most contested piece of public art.

• Sawmill Market

End the tour where Old Town's dead give way to the living, at a food hall built on the bones of a hundred-year-old lumber mill.
