The Palacio de Linares, located in Madrid, is an opulent palace built in the late 19th century by the Marquises of Linares. Designed by architect Carlos ColubÃ, the palace features lavish interiors with intricate decorations and luxurious furnishings. The Marquises, José de Murga and Raimunda Osorio, were known for their grand lifestyle and significant contributions to the arts.
The palace’s haunted reputation stems from a dark family secret. According to legend, José and Raimunda were half-siblings, a fact they discovered only after their marriage. Distraught by this revelation, they allegedly committed a series of tragic acts, including the murder of their daughter, who was born out of wedlock. The child’s spirit is said to haunt the palace to this day.
Visitors and staff have reported various paranormal activities, including sightings of a young girl, unexplained noises, and cold spots. The ghostly figure of Raimunda has also been seen wandering the halls, adding to the palace’s eerie atmosphere.
