Mexico

Every logged mystery in this country.

  • Mexico City

    Island of the Dolls

    A doll-covered chinampa in Xochimilco where local legend, outsider art, and dark tourism meet in one of Mexico City's strangest visitor stops.

  • Mexico City (Xochimilco)

    La Llorona

    Mexico's most enduring ghost story, about a weeping woman who drowned her own children and now wanders waterways searching for them, first documented in 16th-century Mexico City and still reported along canals, rivers, and borderlands from Xochimilco to the American Southwest.

  • Yucatán

    Misnébalam

    A deserted henequen hacienda outside Mérida where three separate ghosts are said to still work the ruined grounds: a murdered landowner, a tormented boy, and a monk nobody can place in the historical record.

  • State of Mexico

    Teotihuacan

    One of the largest cities in the ancient world at its peak, built by a civilization whose name, language, and rulers remain unknown. The Aztecs found it already abandoned centuries later and named it "the place where the gods were created."

  • Durango / Chihuahua / Coahuila

    Zone of Silence

    A remote desert region near Mapimí, Mexico, where a real 1970 U.S. missile crash helped fuel legends of radio failure, UFOs, strange magnetism, and desert anomalies.
