November 1st and 2nd, celebrates Day of the Dead, or Día de los Muertos. Day of the Dead is a traditional Mexican holiday - when it is believed that the souls of the dead return to visit their living family members.
To honor this holiday, we will wrap up our mini-series on Philmont Ghost stories with Graham Nelson. Graham has been able to see ghosts since he was a child. All the same, he still gets goosebumps while recounting his Philmont ghost encounters. Today he shares two stories - the first occurred at Miranda and the second at French Henry. Graham also shares his personal story, how he grew up at Philmont as a kid, tagging along each summer with his parents volunteering at the Infirmary. From backcountry prank wars to nostalgia for community and close summer friendships - this episode is both mysterious and reflection.
