He lives on as one of the characters of the book, and as one of the ghosts of La Casa. The house is made of dried mud adobe bricks and encloses three sides of a peaceful central courtyard which belies the unexplained phenomena occurring in surrounding rooms. In the dark windowless chapel a chill has been felt as a ghostly figure covered in a brown robe is seen gliding through the doorway into the priest's bedroom.

The misty upper torso of a male figure is sometimes seen floating behind the sofa or seated in the chair in this bedroom. In the dining room a man dressed as a vaquero has been seen.

The translucent face of a young man has been reported in the mirror.
