A Haunted New Mexico

Gabriel Maestas

** Caution** These ADULT New Mexican tales are:

Gritty.

Raw.

Rough.

DANGEROUS.

These are tales that take readers to the dark places. There are no trigger warnings. EVERYTHING is on the table. From apparitions that can take your soul, to unexplained news reports, and lights in the sky, tales mold the past, the present, and a frightening future…if only in our imagination.

“Come with me, cuz we’re going into the depths of a nightmare. Ay dios mío…”


DIRE A Haunted New Mexico from Gabriel Maestas

There’s a legend about a white wolf, a Lobo. 

A science lab in a mysterious part of the state exists, where nightmares have become reality. 

There’s a limited amount of time for Darrius and Angela to figure out what’s behind the numerous disappearances around Albuquerque, New Mexico…before it’s too late.

I was so excited to read this story. It sounded horrific with wolf shifters and more. Unfortunately, this fell flat for me. I understand that it was a short story, but there was so much missing. It felt very surface level. There were so many plot holes. It was a very confusing study to try and keep up with. I have so many unanswered questions. It was just too vague for me. I didn’t find any of it to be scary. I think if this were longer, it would fill in a lot that’s missing and really bring the story to life. This was such an elaborate story, it just needed so much more. This just wasn’t for me.
