Reviews
The Magoffin Home has been written about by the Prospector and Examiner, and comes recommended by Frommer's:
- Built in 1875 for Joseph Magoffin, a pioneer leader who helped guide the city through its chaotic Wild West days, this is El Paso's only historic house museum open to the public. – Frommer's
- His interest in investigating haunted locations began when he was filming a straight historical documentary of the Magoffin Home, where he met up with a Metaphysical Church group that was touring the site with twenty-five psychics. He watched them interacting with the spirits inhabiting the house and was intrigued. – Chad Hoolihan, Examiner
