The former Mid-Orange Correctional Facility has an extensive, and often unsettling, history.
Its origins date back to the 1930s when it was built as a reform school for boys. The school housed about 400 teens at any given time and remained in use until 1976. It is said that at least one of the boys had prematurely ended his stay within one of the dormitories. And many others have continued to prolong their stay long after death, touching guests and closing doors on them- playing with their minds along with any possessions. But the story does not end with a few playful sprites.
In 1976, when the reformatory was closed, it was converted into a correctional facility. This was when it was at its most populated, boasting almost 1,000 inmates housed by 1989. This was its primary function until June of 2011 when it was closed alongside six other state prisons. It is from these men, some of whom had committed the vilest atrocities imaginable, that the complex gets most of its haunts. Bangs, shrieks, inaudible threats, thudding feet… apparitions. It is thanks to them that some of the floors of the schoolhouse remain inaccessible to the public. Although this is done to protect any guests from injury, locked doors mean nothing to the dead.
