Old jail after dark

Mark_S, Feb 2026

I had my ankle grab in the bedroom on the 2nd floor that stopped me from being able to take the step . Checked the area around me and there was nothing in the area that would have kept me from being able to walk. It felt like a hand grab my ankle.

Great overall experience

Definitely a great experience if your into the paranormal and getting evidence. The staff was very knowledgeable about the equipment and the jails history. I would recommend to anyone wanting a genuine ghostly interaction. Will be back!!!

A memorable experience

Lorena_Q, Jan 2026

We had a lot of fun (and scares). The staff was amazingly knowledgeable and kind. Would do again (definitely). If you ask me, the ghosts were definitely real, so 100% recommended

So worth it!

We had the best time! Fran was our wonderful guide, he made the experience so enjoyable and he was truly so funny. We loved using the equipment and seeing what we could get. Let me tell you, me and my partner felt so uneasy! This experience truly is one of a kind, we can’t wait to come back.

Skeptic Turned Believer

Brye_M, Nov 2025

I came on this tour as someone who had experienced some unsettling things as a child, but was ultimately a skeptic who sat on the fence about the legitimacy of paranormal phenomena. I had even gone on two separate ghost tours in the nights prior and experienced nothing beyond a few EMF spikes, so I was leaning toward discounting paranormality as an entertaining but ultimately artificial concept. This tour changed everything for me. The tour guide (I so wish I could remember his name) was a self-proclaimed skeptic-turned-investigator with blue eyes, a great sense of humor, and a sincere enthusiasm for the activity we experienced on our tour (11/17/2025). He absolutely made the experience for me even before I experienced any activity -- and there was far more of that than I was expecting. The company also provided a variety of different investigative tools for us to use, and this was a very cool introduction to equipment that I would not have otherwise learned about or tried out for myself. I'm not sure how much detail I can go into, but basically there was an object (from which all of us were at least a few feet away) that became animated on its own when there was no other explanation for how or why it would do so. This is the primary experience, although there were several secondary ones, that converted my skeptical curiosity toward the paranormal into awestruck belief. I'd like to sincerely thank this company and our amazing tour guide for launching me into what I anticipate will become a lifelong hobby of mine. I would still be sitting on the fence without this incredible experience.

Awesome!

The experience was great the upstairs and the sheriff's office wasn't much activity for us , but we received some activity in the women's jail cells

Great time

This place was so much fun. They explained everything and give you the background about the place. Walk you through how to use the equipment. If you need anything they are there to help but let you do your own thing. It was worth the money. If I ever come back this way would do this again.

Paranormal experience

It was an enjoyable experience to share with my grandsons. The staff was fantastic and really pulled my kids into it. They had a great time.

It was an amazing night...

Steven_S, Feb 2025

It was an amazing night of scary haunting and investigation. Every one was super helpful and very knowledgeable of the site. It was very well organized and I would definitely do it again!
