The haunted prison
Located at 100 Armory Court in Jackson is Michigan's First State Prison. Now a residential complex called Armory Arts Village, the old prison began in 1838 and was the world's largest walled prison by 1882. There are plenty of stories about inmates, guards, escapes, and punishments within these walls. Residents of the property have reported numerous paranormal experiences in the old prison.
