Shrewsbury Prison: a prison wing

1. A Location Unlike Any Other

Shrewsbury Prison holds over 200 years of history, with stories etched into every corridor and cell. Most people only ever see prisons from the outside: towering walls, heavy gates and the mystery beyond. Here, you get rare access to the world behind those walls, with the chance to explore in the dead of night.

2. So Many Haunted Areas to Explore

You won’t be confined to one room all evening. Your investigation takes you through multiple chilling hotspots, each with its own reputation. From the Gate Lodge to the imposing prison wings and even the execution room, there’s always somewhere to try. Both wings are notorious for their unnerving energy and numerous reports of paranormal activity, making every part of the prison feel alive with possibility.

3. Real Equipment, Real Investigation

You’ll get hands-on access to a range of ghost hunting equipment, including EMF readers, table tipping and spirit boards, all designed to help detect and communicate with the unseen. Each vigil begins with a clear introduction to the tools, so you’ll know how to use them confidently and safely. Choose the equipment you’re most curious about or dive into all of it, either way, you’ll be involved from the very beginning.

4. Experienced, Friendly Staff and No Gimmicks!

Our team is there to guide you, answer questions, calm nerves and help you make the most of the night. What we don’t do is stage results or influence the vigil. If an area feels quiet, we’ll simply move you on to another hotspot, so you get the best possible experience.
