Eastern State Penitentiary: America’s Most Haunted Prison
Eastern State Penitentiary (ESP) has stood in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for 150 years. It was a high-security prison that used to treat inmates poorly, to say the least. One of its most infamous punishments was “The Hole,” where inmates had no light, exercise, toilet, or human contact.
ESP closed in 1971, but it still stands as one of the most haunted locations in America. Tourists report ghostly voices, distant cackling, and shadow people darting by. Ghastly cries echo through cellblocks four, six, and 12. If you’re curious, you can take a guided tour at ESP.
You Can’t Navigate Winchester Mystery House
The Winchester Mystery House is one of the strangest architectural buildings in the world. The mansion in San Jose, California, once belonged to Sarah Winchester. Her husband, William Wirt Winchester, once sold ammunitions. Allegedly, the house is haunted by the victims of Winchester’s inventions.
To trick said apparitions, Sarah built several twists and turns into the mansions. Hallways that lead nowhere, doors that open to nothing but a wall, closets that are an inch deep–she built it all. Sarah paid builders to keep changing the house until she passed away in 1922. Today, some people still believe that it’s haunted.
