Paranormal investigator Heather Taddy (Paranormal State, Alien Highway, Portals to Hell) joins Aaron Sagers to talk haunted prisons, shadow figures, and the eerie activity captured in the latest episode of her hit YouTube series, Travel the Dead. Alongside Katrina Weidman, Heather investigates Cambria County Jail in Ebensburg, PA — where slamming jail cells, rainstorms, and full-body apparitions make this one of their wildest episodes yet.
Heather also recounts one of her most intense paranormal encounters: a chilling ghost story from Ohio State Reformatory (aka The Shawshank Redemption Prison) in May 2025 — with Aaron, Mike Ricksecker, and Ben Hansen (UFO Witness) along for the ride.
Do you think prisons are the most haunted places in America? Drop your theories in the comments.
