Summary
Numerous injuries, deaths, and a significant riot in 1954 prompted Time Magazine to call the prison "the bloodiest 47 acres in America." Today, guides and visitors report lots of paranormal activity - apparitions, strange sounds, and creepy feelings permeate the historic hallways. Apparently, many prisoners and even guards never left.
This is Part Two of our conversation about the history and the hauntings of the Missouri State Penitentiary with Ghost Tour Guide Jenny Switzer.
