History & Paranormal Activity

This 1872 prison held criminals for over a century before closing in 1973 following a series of violent riots. The solitary confinement building — known as Siberia — is the most active paranormal area. Investigators document shadow figures, EVPs responding in the voices of documented former inmates, and a figure in the gallows room that appears in photographs.
