Description:

Step inside the spooky halls of the Old City Jail, built in 1802, which housed the city's most infamous criminals until 1939. Hear the chilling tales of the murderess Lavinia Fisher, Civil War-era prisoners, and even pirates whose ghosts are claimed to roam the cells.

After meeting your tour guide, enter the dark and sinister Old City Jail. This centuries-old structure has tales to tell, and the rumored hauntings by its more fearsome convicts are enough to send chills up your spine as you walk the halls. Hear the story of the charming Lavinia Fisher, who murdered unsuspecting guests at the hotel she ran with her husband.

Learn about the tragic fate of Denmark Vesey, hanged for planning a slave revolt. Peer into the cells that held Confederate prisoners of war and plundering 19th-century pirates, and watch carefully—there may be more to those glowing orbs and mysterious flickering shadows than meets the eye.
