If you’re anything like me, you don’t just want to hear about haunted places; you want to feel the mixture of terror and adrenaline for yourself. Lucky for us, Victoria is surrounded by some of the most terrifying and haunted spots in Texas.

Yorktown Memorial Hospital is one of the most talked-about paranormal places in Texas. The first time I snuck, i mean stepped inside, it was impossible to ignore the heaviness in the air. Built in the 1950s and run by nuns, the abandoned hospital is rumored to hold the spirits of patients who never left, and many people who have explored the hospital have encountered paranormal activity.

Goliad is home to one of Texas’ darkest historical sites. Presidio La Bahía is soaked in tragedy from the Goliad Massacre, and some say the spirits of fallen soldiers still walk its grounds. Visitors have claimed to hear footsteps, phantom drums, and voices that don’t belong to the living. If you’re a history buff with a love for the paranormal, this is a double win.

Docked in Corpus Christi, the USS Lexington, better known as the “Blue Ghost”, lives up to its name. Walking the narrow passageways at night feels like stepping back into World War II. Countless visitors report ghostly sailors, flickering lights, and strange noises deep in the ship.

The La Salle Monument in Indianola marks the tragic end of French explorer La Salle. Locals say the land itself feels haunted.

Are you brave enough to explore these haunted Texas legends, or are you just here for the ghost stories?
