LEGENDARY HAUNTED LOCATION: Downtown Basement (former Palace Saloon) on San Antonio Street

I feel like this dark & chilly evening, is just perfect for an El Paso ghost story... So here goes:

"One of our favorite locations in Downtown EP, this large & spooky old basement is found under a former gallery space on San Antonio Street...

Members of Lost El Paso Paranormal have investigated this space extensively.

This was the former site of the old Palace Saloon, which has an interesting history of its own.

After Constable John Selman shot and killed legendary gunslinger John Wesley Hardin (down the street at the Acme Saloon), his son brought him over to the Palace Saloon- here at this location- to have a drink, and wait for the police.

This basement is a hotspot of paranormal activity.

We have captured audio of disembodied voices, the sound of ringing bells, and other unexplained sounds. Video footage of shadow figures has been caught here as well.

One time we were down there with a young lady who told us that she suddenly wasn't feeling well, she was very uncomfortable and felt as if someone or something unseen was near her- As soon as she said this, she grew pale and her nose began to bleed profusely and she had to be taken out of the basement.

Another time, we arrived at the basement to find two perfect, wet, bare footprints of a small child on the rough basement floor....

The location had been previously locked and secured all day, and there were no children in sight, plus the floor was covered in debris and broken glass ...making it very odd to find 2 bare, wet footprints (see photo)

This location was so active that we used to hold training sessions down there for those who were studying paranormal investigation.

We have had many interesting experiences in this place. The energies are very intense in this location and are not to be toyed with.

A new business now occupies the space above.

But who knows what now lurks down there, alone, in the dark..." By: Heather Shade

LEGENDARY LOCATION: Merrick Building/St. Charles Hotel (301 S El Paso St), Downtown El Paso Texas

"The old St. Charles Hotel building (built 1887) is not only one of Downtown El Paso's most beautiful & historic structures, but also amongst its most haunted...

This location used to boast a fine hotel on the upper floors, with a popular restaurant- called the Hollywood Cafe- on the ground floor.

With its rich history, it is no surprise that paranormal activity has been reported here.

Especially given that this has been the site of 2 murders, AND the location of a former cemetery.

One of the building's early owners was murdered on its premises... Ernst Kohlberg (pictured here) leased the St. Charles to a man named John Leech, a compulsive gambler who fell far behind in his rent.

On June 17, 1910, during a dispute over the rent, Leech drew a revolver, and killed Kohlberg on the spot.

Some believe Mr. Kohlberg's spirit still walks the halls.

This location was also the scene of an unsolved murder as well. In the early 1900s a Chinese man was found slain, propped against the back of the building, a presumed victim of a Tong killing. The crime was never solved.

To add to the paranormal vibrations... this building also sits atop the site of a former cemetery that dates back to the mid-1800s!

It is unclear whether all of the burials were moved or not before it's construction. The possibility remains that the graves- or various burial artifacts- may be resting beneath the premises today.

The location now has retail on the ground floor, and apartments above. It has undergone recent renovations which have revealed some of the original architectural details.

Paranormal and unexplained activity- such as disembodied footsteps & voices, moving items, and full body apparitions- have been reported here.

The St. Charles remains a gem of preserved history in Downtown El Paso, and a haven for numerous restless spirits within its walls..." By: Heather Shade

"The Merrick building was built in 1887 in El Paso, Texas in the Victorian style popular at that time. Constructed by John J. Steward and William J. Carpenter, Charles Merrick operated his clothing and tailoring business on the first floor. During the Mexican Revolution it was turned into a major arms dealer called the Shelton Payne Arms Company. In 1931 the Hollywood Cafe replaced the arms store. The St. Charles Hotel was operated on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the building and was once considered the longest running hotel in El Paso until it closed in 1996. The building was beautifully renovated in 2000 and today houses a retail store and apartments."
