Summary

Kelly and Diane return to Alcatraz, infamously nicknamed The Rock, and present the history and hauntings of this location that lies about 1.5 miles off the shores of San Francisco, California. Some of the most notorious criminals in American history were sent to the prison built on this island because of the impossibility of escape. Many desperate souls wiled away their lives on Alcatraz Island and many of those souls seemed to have stayed. Some claim a portal exists on the island.
