Scenes of intrigue, tragedy and terror played out in old jailhouses, leaving a definite impression on our time.

Scenes of intrigue, tragedy and terror played out in old jailhouses, leaving a definite impression on our time, and Charleston's Haunted Jail Walking Tour offers a glimpse into the area's sometimes sordid past. You'll definitely want to experience this behind-the-scenes tour of the Old City Jail, which housed some of Charleston's most infamous criminals, 19th century pirates and Civil War prisoners. The Old City Jail was in operation from 1802 until 1939 and most of the building's original structures remain intact, including the cells and warden's quarters. The Haunted Jail Tour takes you through the cells, hallways and into the places where Charleston's worst criminals lived and died.
