Step behind the stone walls of Kentucky State Penitentiary—known as the "Castle on the Cumberland"—and uncover its chilling history, sinister inmates, and terrifying paranormal encounters. Built in 1886 on land long whispered to be cursed, this maximum-security prison has housed Kentucky’s most feared criminals, including assassins, serial killers, and ruthless escape artists. For over a century, inmates met their fates in the electric chair known grimly as "Old Sparky," leaving behind restless spirits and echoes of anguish. Guards and prisoners alike have witnessed ghostly shadows, phantom whispers, and unexplained horrors lurking in the dark. Join us as we dive deep into the haunted legacy of Eddyville's infamous penitentiary—where the line between life and death blurs, and something unseen might be watching you.
