morethanmurderEpisode 59: The Haunted: Eastern State Penitentiary
Eastern State Penitentiary is another one of those "America's Most Haunted..." but we can't help but cover it. Located in Philidelphia, the fortress-like prison was one of the mot famous in the world, housing equally famous inmates like Al Capone. Today, it sits abandoned by the living... but it's really not abandoned at all.
