Summary
Within the walls of the Historic Fowler Theatre lie mysterious noises, looming shadows, and tales of three restless spirits: the original owner, a manager who passed away due to tragic circumstances, and the ghost of a child.
Meanwhile, the Old Benton County Jail bears witness to Fowler's haunted legacy. Former Sheriff Alva Hartman's ghost is said to roam the premises, tied to the shootout that ended his life in the late 1800s. Visitors report ghostly footsteps and shadowy figures, testifying to the spirits that inhabit this grim locale.
Today on the Grave Talks, Part Two of our conversation with Dwight Snethen, founder of “My Haunted Fowler,” a social media site promoting the paranormal activity at the Historic Fowler Theater, the Old Benton County Jail and other haunted locations in and around Fowler Indiana.

| 0:10.6 | I did read about one man who was held there, Jacob Nelling. |

| 1:27.0 | The stories read that he said he didn't remember doing it, but he must have, sort of like he admitted to it even though he really doesn't remember doing it, but he must have sort of like he admitted to it even though he really |
