While it's difficult to explain what attracts a spirit to a place or keeps it from leaving,

it doesn't change the fact that it seems to happen.

In fact, some historic homes seem to be magnets for paranormal activity, and this raises a question.

If soil is bloodied with tragedy, are any structures built atop this land destined to be haunted?

We are about to find out.

In today's podcast turned ghost hunt, we are exploring Victoria's Black Swan Inn.

This is Red Web.

Welcome. Red Web. Welcome back, Task Force, to another episode of Red Web, the podcast all about unsolved

mysteries, true crime, and the unknown.

I'm your resident mystery enthusiast Trevor Collins, and joining me hearing about the

house that we are sitting in

right now. My co-host Alfredo Diaz and the guy in the chair, Christian Young, our producer,

how are you guys feeling? Not good. Instantly, not good. Not good. I mean, rolled up to the place

right away. And I was like, where am I? You were your first, too. I was there first. That's why I called

Christian and said, um, help. Am I in the right place? I see this kind of like run down home. Luckily,

there's livestock in front of it. Yeah. And so I was like, okay. Otherwise, I'd be like,

like treading on property. I should be treading on right now. Yeah. And so I was like, okay. Otherwise, I'm like treading on property.

I shouldn't be treading on right now. You make a good point. If there weren't the geese out there and like evidence of life, you would think you'd rolled up to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre House. Yes. Yep. That is until you see this house they were actually in. This house gorgeous. It's gorgeous. It's just hidden a little bit behind the other properties.

And then you have the giant tree out front, which is great. Nice little gazebo. Nice look, a zibo. It's nice with the lights on. We walked up with the lights off carrying stuff and a little more terrifying. You know, you see the silhouette of the big tree. you hear the rustling of the leaves and then giant wind chimes just kind of

soft. Dude, massive wind chimes. I'd never seen wind chimes this thing. It's actually really cool. Yeah. I think signs vibes with the wind chimes. And so I was like, yeah, let's get a light on. Yeah. Then I had to use the restroom at some point. And you're like, oh, it's just in that bedroom down the hall to the left. And I went and I'm like, okay, there's dolls in this room everywhere. And then I go into the bathroom. And it's, you know, the shower tub has got a curtain. And I very much contemplated for the longest time I stood there and I said

I just try to just open the curtain I'm like that's ridiculous I shouldn't open the curtain I'm

like I think I should open the curtain and I'm like no just don't open the curtain I didn't
