Description:

Former West Virginia Penitentiary

Former West Virginia Penitentiary is known for its haunted cells and ghostly visits. The Prison housed some of the states worst prisoners. The prison was closed down due to the poor conditions of the prison. It is truly a place to see and takes up over a city block. The prison was opened from 1866 to 1995.
