Day Tours CLOSE at 3pm Friday, Saturday and Sunday during the Dungeon of Horrors event in October.


Over 10,000 people were introduced to one of the scariest places behind bars in October 2011!  They experienced the fright of being locked up in a cell, the fear of being lost in a maze and the terror of an eerie walk through the dungeon of horrors!

The Former West Virginia Penitentiary housed some of the most violent criminals in history. Many of the prisoners who lived here also died here. The prison is known to have one of the highest levels of paranormal activity in the United States and most people who have survived the dungeon of horrors believe that the prisoners still haunt the darkened hallways of the prison today.
