Are the old confederate prison and cemetery in Alton, IL haunted?
An oversized episode with a Very Special Guest. The old prison and Confederate cemetery are two of the most haunted places in one of the most haunted places in Illinois, Alton. Prisoners died and were buried in unmarked graves. Some say their spirits linger on. Is it haunted? Listen and decide!
Questions Discussed in this Episode
Why was the prison built and why were Confederate soldiers brought there? What happened to cause so many soldiers to die? Where were the bodies buried? Why do people say the spirits are restless? What happened on Smallpox Island? What happened on Hop Hallow Road? What is the evidence of paranormal activity? Is it haunted?
Special Guest
Our special guest this episode is none other than the amazing person who gave Pat his kidney, Mark Garstka. If you are inspired after listening to Mark to explore donating a kidney, please visit the National Kidney Foundation and Becoming a Living Donor for more information.
