Tiny town named New Mexico's scariest city

Don't blame our state for the irresponsible act of an actor! Although,according to history; a lot of people have been killed in New Mexico,by a Colt 45...Including Billy the kid! That's right !

I remember walking through Lordsburg on foot in the middle of the night during a snowstorm, it was absolutely terrifying, the only noise was coming from the freeway and some rail workers doing some welding on a freight train. This was at 2AM. The entire town was dark and had a terrible empty feeling. But their was definitely some kind of dark energy there.

[@madnessintomagic]

Maybe what was dark and odd was a person walking on foot through a pitch dark town at 2am. I’d be more freaked out to see you (then), than a completely dark and silent town, asleep, at 2 am. lol

Facts

[@tamerajardine-baker171]

I live in Bent New Mexico and it's right on the edge of the Mescalero Apache reservation! The canyon we live in is considered the most haunted in the state because it was the old trail from Ruidoso to Tularosa and then onto Las Cruces! There where many wagons, cowboy's ect that where ambushed by the mescalero people on thier way through the mountains! And even though we know they are here, we accept it and ignore thier entering our homes unless they get evil! Then we sage the house again and move on! Love it here!

[@steveeddy6876]

Is Bent NM named for the 1st governor Charles Bent? Of so he is my husband's 3 great uncle

[@roosterj2599]

I've spent a lot of time up there in Bent. I have heard the stories and it does feel creepy. Nogal canyon is very creepy. I grew up in Tularosa. The old copper mine in Bent is really cool and scary.

So many indigenous people were slaughtered in New Mexico…. it’s seem obscene to ask such a idiotic question and never mention the natives slaughtered…. the spirit roam … Remember the death march … the Long Walk of the Dine… so many perished … there’s ghost allright..

[@mdjnunez]

I just this video and to me the most haunted place is my home. Our house was built in the 1950’s and our neighbors died in front of our home. Something about them going too fast on the curve and the car ended flipping right in our front yard. Their children buried them in their backyard and it wasn’t until 1995 when the new owners did not like the idea of the bodies there so they were removed and given a proper burial. It never fails when we’re watching a movie we hear old music and voices from one of the empty bedrooms. Also all of the door are wide open in the mornings. And we’ve seen a man pace back and forth in the hallway. So yeah my house wins.

[@carlsaganlives6086]

Fairly common, but ya might wanna mention it in your Airbnb profile. Folks are willing to pay extra for the haunted house experience. Even more if your bud the pacer is friendly and speaks on occasion.

In the 70s I worked at the Lodge in Cloudcroft. I never saw Rebecca. Though some people mentioned weird things happening, the scariest thing I heard/saw was a squirrel that had broken into the basement and stored a bunch of food. The noise was a bit unsettling because of the legend of Rebecca...

[@pate_wolf]

Cloudcroft has two Inn’s that are haunted. There is one with Rebecca who is friendly and another in a different Inn who will throw things at you if you enter her room. That tiny town has a lot going on.

[@HeatherCheddarZ]

Our family has a cabin in cloudcroft. We went back after a long time and we like the grocery store there with the good bread. Idk if anyone knows what I'm talking about bc I was like 7 then and 17 revisiting. We couldn't find it so we went into the gun store near by and asked and they said oh they're long gone and they stole a lot of people's money and a lot of the town is pissed. He was really pissed too. It was kinda scary. I also liked the pizza place across from the high school (?) Bc the students when they got out of class would go to work across the street. I thought that was cute looking back. I was raised in carlsbad and hated it there. And we went to cloudcroft to escape the heat bc even in the middle of summer I remember it being chilly there while back home it was easily 110 degrees.
