Late at night when the bar tenders’ close shop they have reported seeing a man at the end of the bar waving them over. Most of the bar tenders run for the nearest door. But it’s said those that are brave enough to engage will hear the ghost of Teddy Roosevelt himself enlisting volunteers into the Rough riders.
And that's just one of the many ghosts said to haunt the hotel. Let me tell you their story.
Everyone meets at the meeting point.
The tour starts at the historic Alamo where you'll hear the story of the ghosts that haunt the land and the legend of how Santa Anna ordered his soldiers to burn the Alamo, but the spirits of the defenders of the Alamo stopped them cold in their tracks, saving the Alamo.
The tour ends at one of the most haunted hotels in the USA, said to be haunted by the famous spirit of Teddy Roosevelt and over 30 more. With a little luck you might just run into a spirit yourself.
