This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!
For nearly 170 years, the Missouri State Penitentiary in Jefferson City stood as both a fortress and a nightmare. Opening its gates in 1836, it was the oldest continuously operating prison west of the Mississippi until it finally closed in 2004. In that time, it saw more than its share of darkness—countless injuries, violent deaths, and the infamous 1954 riot that led Time Magazine to brand it “the bloodiest 47 acres in America.”
But just because the prisoners left doesn’t mean the prison is empty. Today, the long, echoing corridors are filled with something else—apparitions lurking in shadow, disembodied voices, and an oppressive sense that you’re never truly alone. Guides and visitors alike say the past is still very much alive within these stone walls.
On this episode of The Grave Talks, Part Two of our conversation with ghost tour guide Jenny Switzer about the history—and hauntings—of the Missouri State Penitentiary.
