![]() | Halloween at the Haunted Jail ~ Chambersburg, PA. Oct. 18 & 19, 25 & 26, 20 Join the Franklin County Historical Society for Halloween at the Haunted Jail Friday and Saturday October 18th, 19th, 25th & 26th, 2024. Guests will meet ghosts, ghouls and spooks as they navigate Pennsylvania's longest continually operating jail, built in 1818. During over 150 years of use as a prison, The Old Jail survived the burning of Chambersburg by Confederate Forces in 1864 and housed numerous criminals, including Captain John Cook, one of John Brown's men, captured after the unsuccessful raid at Harpers Ferry. The complex consists of the original 1818 building, an annex built in 1880, and a prison yard enclosed by 20-foot high limestone walls. There is also a cellar, which contains five domed dungeons with rings in the walls and floors that were used to shackle recalcitrant prisoners. This experience is not for the faint of heart, and those who choose to visit, do so at their own risk, as they learn about crime and punishment in a really scary setting!
