Moundsville Penitentiary







This past Sunday, my brother, sister-in-law and I visited yet another supposed haunted prison. We took a trip out to Moundsville, West Virginia to visit the Moundsville Penitentiary. This place is seriously creepy. I didn't find it as aesthetically pleasing as Mansfield, but it was definitely an experience to see it.

There were 85 hangings and 9 executions by electric chair here. The place had a terrible vibe. My sister-in-law actually started to feel a little nauseous at times. There were around 900 people in all who died here. If you get a chance to visit, you should. In the meantime, here are some photos and a video from Ghost Adventures when they visited the prison. Hope you are having a great hump day! If you want to check out their website, visit Moundsville Penitentiary online.
