Praises for the Author’s Other Best-Selling Books
American Indian Ghost Stories of the West
“The accounts range from sweetly sentimental to truly terrifying, but all share the benefit of Antonio’s sensitivity and attention to detail. He shows respect for the tales, and those who tell them, and understands that history and culture are inextricably bound to all folklore.”
—Jo-Anne Christensen, Haunted Hotels
“These are not long-ago cowboy yarns, but very real, very current ghost stories from a rich and chilling mix of voices. Antonio has a rare talent for telling detail; he paints unforgettably creepy images that linger long after the book is done.”
—Chris Woodyard, Haunted Ohio
New Mexico Ghost Stories
“This collection of personal encounters with the ‘spiritual’ or ‘supernatural’ certainly supported some of my own experiences. These stories are made more frightening by their very proximity.”
—Stephanie Gonzales, former New Mexico secretary of state
“I highly recommend that both local citizens and visitors to Santa Fe read this book!”
—Sam Pick, former mayor, Santa Fe, New Mexico
“Fascinating to read … offers the reader insight into our town’s unique traditions, folklore, and history; don’t miss it!”
—Frederick A. Peralta, former mayor, Town of Taos
Colorado Ghost Stories

“Get ready for some scary nights!”
—Every Day with Rachael Ray magazine, October 2009
Arizona Ghost Stories
“Gives a hauntingly accurate overview of the many reports of haunted sites all over the state. It not only lists the places from north to south, but also quotes the interviews of eyewitnesses, giving a remarkable feeling of being there with them as they encounter the unknown. Such sites as the Copper Queen Hotel in Bisbee and the Jerome Inn come to life in Mr. Garcez’s investigations. His chapter on the reports of ghosts at Tombstone is perhaps one of the best accounts I have seen on this subject.”
—Richard Senate, Hollywood’s Ghosts
“Arizona could not have asked for a better chronicler of its supernatural landscape than Antonio R. Garcez. From Arivaca to Yuma, Arizona’s most haunted places are all here! These stories will send shivers up your spine, and rightly so—they all really took place! If you have ever wanted to experience something paranormal, let this book be your guide.”
—Dennis William Hauck, Haunted Places: The National Directory
Ghost Stories of California’s Gold Rush Country and Yosemite National Park
“If you’re a lover of the supernatural, get cozy in an easy chair and prepare yourself for the inevitable. Eyewitness accounts told in a straightforward manner!”
—Tim Palmieri, Western Outlaw-Lawman History Association
“As a subject where many of the books written simply regurgitate previously produced material, author Antonio R. Garcez does an excellent job of locating and interviewing primary resources to provide fresh stories of ghost folklore. Each chapter contains a brief introduction that supplies some of the background of the town and sites in question, followed by transcriptions of the witnesses’ stories. Garcez’s style is simple and easy to follow; the stories he has found are quickly engrossing. The fact that he put the time into his field research is impressive. Garcez can always be relied on to provide fresh stories of the supernatural, and this book is no exception. He does his field research to find firsthand accounts from the people who witnessed them. When so many other writers concentrate more on information other paranormal researchers produce, Garcez deserves a great deal of credit.”
—Adrienne Foster, book reviewer, Epinions.com
