According to Thrillest.com, these are the three San Antonio sites are the most haunted places in Texas.

#1 The Alamo

A lot of patriots died defending the mission during the battle of the Alamo on February 23, 1836, to March 6, 1836.

Ghost sightings have been reported in the gift shop and around the grounds.

It is said that the angry spirits from the battle still haunt the premises to this day.

#2 The Menger Hotel

The Menger has been around since 1859 and was built just a couple of decades after the battle of the Alamo.

The hotel was built on the haunted Alamo grounds and is said to still be host to some ghostly guests.

Some rooms are said to inhabit spirits who have never checked out.
