The Old Jail
The Old Jail is one of just a few prisons of its kind still standing and makes for a great sightseeing and history adventure. Built in 1891, the Old Jail housed prisoners for over 60 years. Listed on the Florida and National Register of Haunted Places, the Old Jail has been the site of countless supernatural occurrences. Many criminals met their maker here. A shiv in the back or a hangman's noose ended numerous lives. Visitors to the Old Jail have experienced cold spots, strange odors, loud banging noises, orbs of light and even apparitions.
