Eastern State Penitentiary alleged hauntings

Eastern State Penitentiary, opened in 1829 and now a museum, has long been associated with reports of unexplained sounds, cold spots, and alleged apparitions by visitors and paranormal investigators. The site has been the subject of televised paranormal investigations and frequently features on local ghost tours. Eastern State also operates the annual Halloween event 'Terror Behind the Walls,' which dramatizes the prison's eerie reputation.
