Very CREEPY AND EERIE. This was a jail facility back in the 1970s and you could tell, a lot of miserable and tragic things happened here. Broken beds and chairs, and some of the inmate’s belongings were still here. I couldn’t even dare to touch it! It was fun listening to the audio explaining the history of the building and at the same time terrifying… It might suddenly change to a haunting voice!!! Overall, very informative and interesting.
