Today on the Grave Talks, the haunted old Lavaca County Trail.

What do you think of when you think abandoned jail?

Butterflies and daisies? Of course not.

rusting away in the stale vacant air that time forgot.

Possibly even unexplained sounds echoing down the lines of barred walls

from the resident spirits that still take refuge behind the strong,

center-blocked walls. If that's what you're thinking of,

you may be thinking of the haunted old Lavaca County Trail.

A jail no longer holding the living.

from the doctor's office and it was pretty much from that point

that I started having experiences.
