This week's episode delves into the dark history of Jackson State Prison, exploring the inhumane conditions faced by inmates, the brutal punishments inflicted by warden John Morris, and the haunting stories that linger in the prison's walls. Harley shares spooky stories of past inmates who just can't leave, ghost dogs, eerie tunnels, a mischevious fella who likes to hide things, an obnoxious inmate turned crow, and so much more.
Guys, Harley lost all control and did ALL the research. It's a long one, but super interesting! If you'd like to skip the banter in the beginning, go ahead and skip ahead to 23:40. Enjoy!
