American Hauntings Podcast

In 1833, construction was completed on the first penitentiary in Illinois. Located in the riverfront town of Alton, there was no other building like it in the state – and only two others anywhere in the United States. The Alton Penitentiary was – and still is – a very haunted place, and it’s one from which there is really no escape – not even in death. Join us in this special 10-episode "on the side" season as we revisit new and updated stories from our very first season of the podcast on Alton, Illinois, based on the new edition of HAUNTED ALTON by Troy Taylor, available below.Get the updated version of HAUNTED ALTON here.Check out our updated website and sign up for our newsletter at AmericanHauntingsPodcast.comCheck out our merch at AmericanHauntingsClothing.comFollow us on Twitter @AmerHauntsPod, @TroyTaylor13, @CodyBeckSTLFollow us on Instagram @AmericanHauntingsPodcast, @TroyTaylorgram, @CodyBeckSTLSubscribe for more bonus content on our Patreon pageThis episode was written by Troy TaylorProduce
