Why is San Antonio So Haunted?
San Antonio is a one-of-a-kind town. With over two centuries of history, the city has seen wars, disease, and bloody massacres, leaving behind tons of restless spirits. Six different nations have flown their flag over San Antonio, creating a unique cultural melting pot that makes the city an exciting place to be.
San Antonio de Bexar was established by Spanish missionaries who wanted to convert the local Payaya Indians to Catholicism. The Alamo was originally built as a mission and chapel for worship, and the Spanish conscripted the help of the local Indigenous tribes in their efforts to convert them to Christianity. After the Mexican Revolution, San Antonio became the capital of Texas and its largest city.
Chaos tore through Mexico in the ensuing years, and Texas rebelled in an effort to secede and become an independent nation. San Antonio was a major flashpoint in the Texas Revolution, and the Texan Army and militia suffered a significant loss at the Battle of the Alamo.
All of the Alamo defenders were massacred, leading to the phrase “Remember the Alamo,” becoming a rallying cry for Texan independence. America annexed Texas shortly afterward, leading to the bloody Mexican American War.
Although the Americans won, San Antonio was devastated, with its population reduced by two-thirds. San Antonio has since bounced back, but the ghosts of those who died at the Alamo live on! Our ghost tours pass through some of the most iconic scenes in Texas, from the Emily Morgan Hotel to the haunts in Southtown, and of course, the Alamo! The ghosts in River City are thriving, and heck, you might run into the Chupacabra or La Llorona while on a tour! So don’t keep these rebel spirits waiting!
