The Old Montana Prison is said to be the most haunted location in Southwest Montana. This was a state prison that was used for over 100 years and was the first Territorial Prison in the western part of the United States. The prison closed in 1979 and has reopened as a venue with multiple museums, the main one being the prison itself. There were deaths here and a violent riot and perhaps that is why spirits walk the corridors and hide in the cells. Join us for the history and hauntings of the Old Montana Prison! The Moment in Oddity features Justin Bishop the blind skateboarder and This Month in History features the Aberdeen Snowman. Our location was suggested by Sara Jimison.
