Take a trip through New Mexico, and you'll find towns/cities such as Tingle (sends chills up the spine), Bloodgood Place (simply vampiric), Bates Place (Mother doesn't love visitors), Hext Place (where spells are cast via cell phone?), Romeroville (the Crazies have taken over), Rainsville (every night here is dark and stormy),
Alcatraz (the whole populace is in lockdown), and Derry (the fear of clowns abounds in this town, I'm betting). The most American Gothic place name, though, that you'll come across is...
Double Crossing. The backstabbing capital of the Macabre Republic. A hotbed of New Mexico noir, where turnabout is foul play, and the dirty deed is a daily activity.
