Then there is the true tale about the so-called "House of Mummies" in Guanajuato. The greedy operators who operate the adjoining cemetery and catacombs of the dead beneath the city charge families of the dead rent to keep their loved ones buried. If there's no one who can or will pay the fee, they dig the body up and prop him or her in the adjoining "museum" where they then charge tourists to come in and look. The dry climate and properties of the soil mummify the corpses, and thus - instant museum show! Not surprisingly, there are ghost stories, including the cries of babies, an apparition of a "tall" lady, and strange whispering sounds.

De pronto, se empiezan a escuchar ruidos a lo largo del lugar. Las puertas empiezan a abrirse y cerrarse. Poco después, los ruidos se convierten en voces, gritos de sufrimiento. Los objetos dentro de la habitación empiezan a flotar, mientras que manos invisibles comienzan a jalarte y empujarte, como si quisieran que salgas del lugar. Nadie sabe realmente lo que pasó en la Casa Negra de Álvaro Obregón para que ésta se llenara de espíritus que quieren alejar a todos los que entran; sin embargo, una de las historias más populares dice que en este lugar vivía la familia Mondragón, una familia bien posicionada de la Ciudad de México. Un día, los padres y sus tres hijos amanecieron muertos en su cama. Nadie supo por qué o cómo habían fallecido. Fue una muerte misteriosa...

Panteones Metro Station, on Line 2 of the railway serving Mexico City was bound to attract stories. Its name means “Graveyards” because it was built close to two old cemeteries – and as we know from the stories above, this is very likely to lead to stories of hauntings. Panteones doesn’t let us down. In the tunnel between Panteones and Tacuba stations, ghostly knocks on the walls have been heard in the pitch black, and shadowy lumps appear and disappear when workers approach them.

In 1778, Don Bernabé Antonio de Zepeda, a miner from Matehuala began to explore the Sierra de Catorce and discovered the outcrops of the rich Veta Grande, in which he sank the Guadalupe shaft that produced a great amount of red minerals along with abundant green and white silver... By 1920, Real de Catorce was nearly a ghost town and the trolley and train were removed Although ASARCO, in 1926, and Fresnillo, in 1937, evaluated the major vein structures, a resurgence of mining activity did not take place until 1942 when a small cyanide plant was constructed and operated for about ten years.
- ↑ Hawkes, Logan. "Real de Catorce. Ghost town in the clouds...". Mexico Less Traveled.com. Last Planet Media. Retrieved 26 August 2015.
The town was founded around 1770 after a man named Ventura Ruiz stumbled across a rich deposit of silver while searching for his lost horse... Why the silver mines are no longer a going concern is a matter of speculation. Some say the silver simply dried up. Others say the mining 'disturbs the gods', which caused much 'bad luck'. A few say the mines are haunted. One local legend has it that a ghost (the locals call him El Jergas) leads miners away from their fellow workers underground and into remote areas of the dark mines. The outcome, however, is a good one, because apparently the phantom miner is pointing the way to another vein of silver.

Veinte años antes, Aguirre Pech organizaba “el turismo del brujo” en Catemaco, en una época en donde los brujos practicaban magia blanca utilizando las recetas ancestrales para la cura de males físicos y sentimentales. Aguirre Pech tomó la estafeta de “Brujo Mayor” y a partir de ahí comenzó la promoción de esta actividad que atrajo a políticos, artistas, deportistas y a la población en general. Se dice que Aguirre Pech vendió su alma al diablo en el cerro del Mono Blanco, con lo cual obtuvo poderes diabólicos bajo el mote de “El Brinco de León” hasta 1982, cuando falleció.
