In San Antonio and parts of South Texas, things occasionally do go bump in the night. While San Antonio may be the number one tourist destination in Texas, it may also be one of the most haunted cities in the entire state. Steeped in history and tradition, San Antonio has numerous buildings and locations that, many claim, are also home for some interesting and intriguing spirits. Docia Williams and Reneta Bryne have spent years tracking down the spirits of San Antonio and other South Texas cities. The search has taken them to such places as the Alamo, the Institute of Texan Cultures, numerous hotels and restaurants, the city library, the choir loft of a Methodist church, the site of the Midget Mansion, and even the haunted Sea Captain's house. The results of this search are found in this book.
