West Virginia Penitentiary

 

Coming Soon! * * Investigation Starts May 12, 2001

 

 

This prison was built in 1876 and continued to serve until 1995 when it was shut down by a ruling in the WV Supreme Court that conditions there were "cruel and unusual punishment".  During the years that the prison was open 84 inmates were executed by hanging and 9 were electrocuted.  Add to these numbers other deaths that took place here by murder and disease you have the makings for a very active paranormal spot.
