- 0:43Speaker 3: Halloween season they have it open. It's like a haunted house.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Yeah, like they do it up and it's horrifying actors
- 0:48Speaker 2: and yes, it's horrify and could not.
- 0:51Speaker 1: To me, it'd be more scary if you could go
- 0:53Speaker 1: in there and they didn't do anything to it, Like.
- 0:55Speaker 2: They let you in and they say have a nice day.
- 0:57Speaker 1: But it's still like the lights are off.
- 0:59Speaker 3: Yeah, scary. Yeah.
- 1:01Speaker 2: It's infamous for brutal punishments and solitary confinement. It was
- 1:05Speaker 2: built back in eighteen twenty nine. Paranormal investigators say they
- 1:10Speaker 2: have seen, they have heard whispers, shadowy figures, cold spots,
- 1:16Speaker 2: all the creepy stuff.
- 1:17Speaker 1: It's funny. I know people that are really into horror
- 1:19Speaker 1: and they would love that, But then there's people that
- 1:21Speaker 1: are into it and then they would scream their butts off. Yes,
- 1:24Speaker 1: walked into the.
- 1:25Speaker 2: Exactly, I cry and go.
- 1:27Speaker 3: I think al Capone was in there was I think
- 1:30Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure where's again?
- 1:32Speaker 2: This is Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia. Okay, so I
- 1:35Speaker 2: mean we could do a little we could do it.
- 1:37Speaker 3: Whoa we need to go?
- 1:40Speaker 1: What if?
- 1:42Speaker 3: Of course?
- 1:43Speaker 2: Yes, let's hear.
- 1:44Speaker 1: That field trip we'll do. We're not doing no.
- 1:47Speaker 3: Okay, you'd be open to going if you guys.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Went with me and you flanked me. So it's all
- 1:54Speaker 2: about me protecting me clearly, because you two are so
- 1:58Speaker 2: much braver than me. I would go, but we'd like
- 2:02Speaker 2: have to stay together.
- 2:03Speaker 3: So I haven't been in years. I would once never
- 2:07Speaker 3: went back because so scared. Yes, during the Halloween season,
- 2:11Speaker 3: I went, you know through like the haunted house type
- 2:13Speaker 3: of deal, and there was one room where they give
- 2:15Speaker 3: you this little itty bitty flashlight it's just like this
- 2:18Speaker 3: little light that comes through this little thing they give
- 2:21Speaker 3: you and it's pitch blacket there and you go in
- 2:24Speaker 3: and you have to shine the light to make your
- 2:27Speaker 3: way through. I don't know if they still do that
- 2:29Speaker 3: and then figure out that well, that's the part that
- 2:32Speaker 3: so we would really make it.
- 2:34Speaker 2: We would need to be tethered, like tied to each
- 2:38Speaker 2: other so we don't get separated.
- 2:40Speaker 1: And then there are places where you can be touched
- 2:43Speaker 1: or not be touched.
- 2:44Speaker 2: You've got to let them know.
- 2:45Speaker 1: You have to let them know you were glowstick around. Yeah.
- 2:48Speaker 2: I don't know if that's one. I mean you can
- 2:50Speaker 2: text us four four three six three if you've done
- 2:52Speaker 2: this or you're into going to these places or just
- 2:56Speaker 2: too scared. Just to name off a couple more, it's
- 2:59Speaker 2: the Stanley Hotel, Stephen King stay in room two seventeen.
- 3:02Speaker 2: This is in Colorado. That's the hotel that inspired the
- 3:05Speaker 2: book for the Shining.
- 3:06Speaker 1: To me, these are all more scary than a haunted house,
- 3:10Speaker 1: a creepy hotel in sant Asylum.
- 3:13Speaker 2: They say that they're haunted though, like in that hotel,
- 3:16Speaker 2: he said there were ghostly children running in the hallways.
- 3:19Speaker 2: Piano music you. I don't know. The Lizzie Borden House,
- 3:24Speaker 2: which is in Fall River, Massachusetts, is really famous. Always
- 3:28Speaker 2: wanted to go here just because I thought it would
- 3:29Speaker 2: be beautiful. Saint Augustine, Florida, but they say the lighthouse
- 3:33Speaker 2: is really really haunted. You'll hear mysterious footsteps, the sounds
- 3:38Speaker 2: of ghost kids once again who were in there. And
- 3:42Speaker 2: or we could just go hang out in the pine
- 3:45Speaker 2: barrens and look for the Jersey Devil. That's up on
- 3:48Speaker 2: the list as well. And Lalorie Mansion which is in
- 3:53Speaker 2: New Orleans, and I think that that's the one that
- 3:56Speaker 2: Nicholas Cage owned for a while. Okay, so Eric and
- 3:58Speaker 2: I were in New Orleans last year for Halloween. I
- 4:02Speaker 2: didn't go in. I just took pictures from the outside.
- 4:05Speaker 1: So you kind of want to do these places, but
- 4:07Speaker 1: he kind of don't.
- 4:08Speaker 2: I kind of, But I'm not brave enough. Yeah, Eric was,
- 4:11Speaker 2: He was a no go. So again I would go
- 4:14Speaker 2: with you too.
- 4:15Speaker 1: But we do we have to do all the flanking.
- 4:18Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I'm probably more scared than you are, Christine.
