The Casa del Trébol Negro (Black Clover House) in Guadalajara, Jalisco, was built in 1908 and has been reputed to be haunted since shortly after its construction. The house is named for a black clover symbol that was reportedly painted on or carved into the building's façade, variously interpreted as a Masonic symbol, a witchcraft marker, or a warning sign. EVP recordings taken in the house have captured voices in Spanish describing scenes of violence and expressing confusion about their surroundings. Staff and visitors report hearing footsteps on the upper floors when the building is empty, doors slamming throughout the house in a sequence that seems deliberate, and the sensation of being breathed upon in the dark. Some accounts describe the apparition of a man in early 20th-century clothing who stands at the top of the main staircase and seems hostile toward visitors. The black clover symbol has taken on its own supernatural significance — some locals believe it marks the house as a place where dark ceremonies were conducted and that the symbol itself channels negative energy. Guadalajara's tradition of colonial and Revolutionary-era ghost stories gives the Black Clover House a culturally rich context.
