How brave are you? In the ghost town of Bland, you smell violets as the Violet Lady passes by or if you are at the KiMo Theater in Albuquerque you might see the mysterious lady wearing a bonnet who is seen walking along the hallways.

Aliens & Alien Crashes

Alien and alien crashes in New MexicoThe Roswell UFO Incident involved the recovery of materials near Roswell, New Mexico, USA, on July 7, 1947, which has since become the subject of intense speculation, rumor and questioning. While the United States military maintains that what was recovered was a top-secret research balloon that had crashed, many UFO proponents believe the wreckage was of a crashed alien craft and that the military covered up the craft's recovery. The incident has turned into a widely-recognized and referenced pop culture phenomenon, and for some, Roswell is synonymous with UFOs. It likely ranks as the most famous alleged UFO incident.
