Eastern State Penitentiary

Known as one of the most haunted prisons in the USA.

From Charles Montaldo, About.com

Prisoners at Eastern State had a toilet, table, bunk and Bible in their cells, in which they were locked all but one hour a day. When the prisoners did leave their cells, a black hood would be placed over their head so they could not see any other prisoners as they were guided through the halls of the prison.
