The Huebner Onion House.

Built in 1858 for Austrian jeweler Joseph Huebner, the Huebner-Onion Homestead was once only a one-story limestone house that was soon after converted into a stagecoach inn. You see, Huebner’s property was excellently situated between Bandera and San Antonio—it was perfect for reeling in those travelers who were all too aware that the ride between the two towns in the dead of night was unsafe.
The terrain was a death-trap on its own, with muddy soil prone to slipping up horses or carriage wheels. But it wasn’t just the terrain that could do a traveler in—another threat came in the form of Indian raids that ran rampant in the area.

The house is said to be one of the most haunted places in San Antonio. Till this day, people still hear the clip-clopping of horse's hooves at this former stagecoach inn.
For those riding on by Huebner’s stagecoach inn, well, they probably got a glimpse of a candle burning in the window, perhaps the decadent scent of a hot meal wafting in the air, and headed straight to it. Between the choice of possible death or the option of a proper bed and a meal, there wasn’t actually a choice involved.
To say that Huebner was successful would be an understatement.
By the 1860s, he’d opened a horse stand next to the Alamo, where he cared for the horses and taxied around visitors in San Antonio. By 1874, however, Huebner’s empire threatened to come crashing down around him. The number of Native American raids hiked up, and Huebner’s lot of cattle were stolen right from under his feet. Desperate, destitute, he demanded compensation from the government. The government agreed, but the money never came.
What happened next to Huebner is a bit of a mystery. He passed away in 1882, but the cause has been lost to time. The most popular rumor? That poor Joseph Huebner went for a bottle of whiskey, downed its contents and died shortly later.
Not from alcohol poisoning but from the kerosene.

The Ghosts of the Huebner-Onion Homestead

Huebner left no will and was buried across the creek from his home. For a time, the property sat vacant, and by the time the next owners settled in, the ghosts of the Huebner Homestead had already made themselves comfortable.
Judge John Onion, Sr., and his family were ecstatic to live at the property—until all of the activity began to occur. On more than one occasion, John Onion Jr. recorded the steps creaking mysteriously, as though someone was attempting to climb them.
He wrote once that “many a time I—when I was sick in bed—had my eyes glued on the door to see who might walk in. And I never told anybody because I didn’t want anybody to think I was superstitious or heard ghosts or anything. Then, I found out that a good many of the other members of the family had had the same experience.”
Machinery would click on and off throughout the day, like the laundry press that would heat to a hissing steam on its own, even though it had remained untouched. Unexplainable activity continued throughout the years; plates shattering, the distinct notes of piano keys echoing in the breeze. Most common of all were the beating of horse hooves clopping across the yard, as though the Huebner-Onion Homestead’s past as a stagecoach inn is still well and alive on an alternate plane.

Haunted Menger Hotel, San Antonio, TX

San Antonio is known as the most haunted city in Texas and one of the most haunted in the United States. After the bloody battle at The Alamo in 1836, ghosts were no strangers in the heart of San Antonio. Right next to The Alamo sits the Menger Hotel, one of the oldest hotels in Texas. William Menger was a German immigrant who started the Menger Brewery and later opened the Menger Hotel in 1859, contributing directly to the development and growth of San Antonio. The Menger Hotel attracted wealthy businessmen and numerous US Presidents and celebrities, some of whom are said to still linger at the hotel.
Some witnesses have reported seeing the ghost of President Theodore Roosevelt at the hotel bar. In the 1890’s, Teddy Roosevelt would sit at the Menger’s bar and scout out tough Texas cowboys. After getting a few drinks in them, he would convince them to join the Rough Riders, a volunteer cavalry assembled to fight in the Spanish-American War after the US Army was weakened in numbers and strength after the Civil War.
More often seen at the Menger Hotel is the ghost of Captain Richard King. King began to build his wealth and status as a top-notch steamboat captain, and after spending time in San Antonio, he bought chunks of Texas land until he had one of the largest ranches in the world, King’s Ranch. Captain King frequented the Menger Hotel so often, he had his own suite there. At the age of 60, King’s doctor told him that his health was failing and he would die soon. He decided to spend his last months at the Menger hotel, where he felt most at home, and this is where he tied up all of his personal and professional business and said goodbye to his friends. In April 1885, Captain Richard King died at the Menger Hotel, in his personal suite, room #2052. Ever since then, King’s spirit has been roaming the halls, and witnesses to claim to see him float through the door to his suite. King’s ghost has been spotted in the parlor and other areas of the original hotel (newer wings have been added since King’s time).
Another commonly seen ghost at the Menger Hotel is that of Sallie White, a black chambermaid who worked at the hotel. Sallie took pride in her job at the Menger, and she was treated like family by her employer and other staff members. Sallie’s husband, Henry Wheeler, had a respectable job running horse-drawn cargo carriages, but he began losing work once the railroad started running through San Antonio. The stress eventually took its toll, and the couple’s marriage began to suffer. One night in March 1876, Henry and Sallie had a big fight, and Sallie stayed at the Menger Hotel for the evening. It’s not known if she spent the night with another man, or if she had any sort of affair outside her marriage, but the next morning, as Sallie was leaving the hotel to go home, Henry confronted her. He accused her of being unfaithful, and then he shot her. Terribly wounded, she was carried into a room at the hotel and efforts were made to save her. Two days later, Sallie White died at the Menger Hotel. Sallie’s ghost is often seen in the hallways, dressed in her chambermaid uniform and carrying towels to deliver to guests’ rooms. Others have reported seeing her in various areas of the hotel, dusting and tending to her duties.
