It cost about $25,000 and was considered one of the most secure jails of its time. Built of limestone, brick, and heavy stone trim, it served both as a jail and the sheriff’s residence — with sheriffs and their families living on site until 1977. The jail continued to operate until 2006 and was later used for county storage. It was slated for demolition in 2013 but was saved by local interest and purchased for restoration and paranormal research. During restoration, workers uncovered hidden tunnels and dungeon-style cells behind bricked-over walls in the basement — sparking even more interest and mystery. A tragic unsolved murder case — the 1960 killing of 14-year-old Nancy Eagleson — has been tangentially linked to evidence found in the building ? How Pop Culture Has Framed It The long‑running Travel Channel series Portals to Hell devoted an entire episode to the Old Paulding Jail, focusing on the mystery of the sealed basement cell and cold case evidence. Investigators on the show even opened the last remaining bricked‑over cell and examined bone fragments and historic clues, suggesting the possibility that something very old — and tied to real tragedy — still echoes in the underground walls.
