Mine Shaft Tavern

Madrid, NM

Bartenders, as well as guests, have seen glasses fall on their own and break, doors that open and swing back and forth, sounds that can be heard coming from the six-inch adobe walls. 
After closing hours, objects are mysteriously moved about. Perhaps the most unsettling occurrences are when employees look in a mirror. Instead of seeing their own reflections, they believe they see a ghost of a woman named Madaline.
