Are you ready to face what lingers in the cells? Join Crooked Path Paranormal for an exclusive, spine-tingling public investigation of one of Ohio’s most notorious haunts. This is not just a tour—it is a hands-on hunt for the truth in a location where the walls truly do talk.

Located at 112 S. Williams St., Paulding, OH, the Old Paulding County Jail has earned its reputation as a cornerstone of Midwest hauntings. Its heavy atmosphere and restless history were famously captured in the two-hour season premiere of Travel Channel’s Portals to Hell, starring Jack Osbourne and Katrina Weidman.

From the clanging of phantom cell doors to the whispered pleas of former inmates, the spirits of the Old Paulding Jail are waiting to see who is brave enough to enter their domain after dark.
