Haunted Sites: The Cursed Building of Tres Forques
Today I’m bringing you a new article about haunted places. This time, we will be speaking about a building that is considered cursed by many. The building sitting at 1 Tres Forques Street in Valencia, Spain.
The dark history of this building started in 1968 with the death of famed vedette Gracia Imperio and her partner in dubious circumstances. From then on, the building started to accumulate suspicious deaths in all kinds of strange circumstances, being its latest victim in 2015.
During a little over 40 years, a total of nine deaths has taken place in the building. While the number of deaths is not particularly alarming, it is the fact that these deaths have occurred in suspicious circumstances or have been of a criminal or violent nature.
One of the most spine-chilling cases, is the one in which two kids, aged 5 and 6 at the time of the incident, fell down the window while allegedly jumping on the bed. The building has also been the stage of two murders and several suicides.
Story continues below…
Many insist that there is nothing unusual about the building, while others who live there or in the surroundings, declare that the sole sight of this building gives them the heebie-jeebies. There have been neighbors of the building who have declared that they have seen shadows or heard screams and steps in the building.
What is behind this amount of tragic events?
Well, the building was first built in 1957, the same year in which the city of Valencia was flooded, causing the death of a little over 80 people in the area in which the building was built. A few centuries before, that part of the city had been used as a mass burial when the plage and an outburst of cholera assaulted the city of Valencia in the XVII century.
Some parapsychologists that have visited the area, declared that there was an intense activity, particularly noticeable in sudden changes of temperature. Most agree that the tragic imprint that is left in the area may have to do with the “curse” that seems to plague the building.
Truth or attention-seeking technique?
As it happens in all cases of hauntings, the 1st of Tres Forques Street causes curiosity and skepticism. Regardless of how much truth there is behind the strange events that have happened in the building over the years and its possible supernatural cause, it is a fact that the 1st of Tres Forques Street is ranked as one of the buildings that have hosted more violent deaths in the whole country of Spain.

I would Love it if you could finance me with a Paranormal team of investigators (who fund themselves) to go to Spain and investigate the the building. ??
I’m afraid that all I can fund at this time is a bunch of cats that I have! But it would be really interesting! There are a few videos by spanish paranormal investigators about the building, but I don’t think they’ve been translated to english!
I would like to see an article that a read back in early 1990’s about a the ghost woman that had to appeared to some people including me. I read the article published by the Daily news. I misplaced the newspaper. The ghost woman roaming around the San Fernando Mission in the San Fernando Valley in California, she was called the ” Cat Woman”; due to real live cats that follow her while she roams the mission.
That’s impressive! I would love to write about a first-hand testimony of such event!
IT is possible there is a burial ground..at or below the building.
Definitely believe that energy goes on forever.
It could be some souls are trapped and do not know a way out.
Cool, thank you for the story.
without knowing the history of the building and upon first seeing the picture it did not feel welcoming to me. Did not feel good or bad. After hearing the history it seemed a bit more foreboding.
Being that this building was built on a burial ground and all the deaths following the flood the year it was built I would definitely understand why there would be spirit activity there. I personally would have no desire to even enter that building.
Thank you for the message!
