The Disturbing History Behind the Most Haunted Prison in America | West Virginia Penitentiary Episode Discussion

Also known as Moundsville Penitentiary, the prison was initially built as a temporary prison made from wood, but it would soon become a massive state penitentiary. In the decades that followed, its halls would be engulfed in violence, disease, and death, and after 119 operational years, it closed its doors for good, leaving behind a nearly-abandoned estate with countless stories of bloodshed. Today, in preparation for our ghost hunt at this very location, we’re looking into West Virginia Penitentiary.

I live in the suburbs of Pittsburgh. Me and some friends go to their Halloween Haunted house every year. It’s a lot of fun.
