Charleston SC Old City Jail

Posted on: November 10, 2009


I caught this on my dvd camera with night vision, but also was able to see it with my own eyes. Kind of spooky when you already hyped up on a haunted tour.

    that looked like a bat. You can see it fly through the doorway. your camera’s ISO is up so high that it is too noisy to see fine detail. still, it is a very creepy place though.

    Oh yeah…I see him on the wall. And, those orbs are the real deal….

    I don’t see what’s so scary. If you’re referring to the “orb” then it’s dust or a bug. I’ve been in that jail many times. My stepdad was a tour guide for Bulldog Tours and I’ve been on his tours. I’ve taken so many pictures of the interior and exterior and have gotten hundreds of “orbs” which are dust particles and humidity. We’ve also gotten some cool pictures that can’t really be explained, my stepdad has had his own experiences with doors slamming, etc. But this doesn’t impress me.

    I toured the jail on sat.. For the first time ever, I was able to see orbs w/ my naked eye, not just the get them on camera, ,just as they are on this video. My daughter and I both also experienced temp changes and I had a “breathtaking” experience with an “entity” which was witnessed by our entire “tour group” so, I have to say that I am glad you caught yours on video and can vouch for the validity that there is def paranormal activity in the jail… awesome place for thrill seekers!!!

    if i could see a tiny dust particle yes i would say dust. i was pointing the camera in the dark room and saw this above the camera screen. bugs don’t vanish into the wall either.

    I’d wanted to go tour the jail, and a few other places (one whose owner I met while shopping) when I was down there in 2005.
    But my then-girlfriend and her mother were too holy-roller to chance it.

    i have taken the tour i along with my wife were lucky enough to do some hunting with patrick burns from haunting evidence till bout 3-4 AM and my wife was actually choked her wile filming. she as well as one of the film crew had to leave the jail until we finished . i was doing the filming for patrick burns and i can tell you from personal experience that jail IS haunted.

    Is that all a “ghost” can muster? I’ve been there; it’s a creepy place, of historical importance and lots of awful things happened there, but haunted? No. It’s just your imagination, runnin’ away with you…

    ive been there and they slam the door on you and lock you in one of the cell blocks

    My friend caught an orb like this on her camera in the jail while we were on the tour. Also, the camera of another girl who was on the tour quit working while in the building. It is one spooky place, that’s for sure!

    I was on a tour there this summer we were just leaving a room and I was last one out when I heard this heavy scrapping come from behind me. I know that place is haunted it just feels evil.

  21. VAMPIRE1865 Says:

    what you caught there was a classic ORB, bravo.

  22. DeutschAmi Says:

    I am a Charleston native and just recently took the tour of the jail. On the second floor, I smelled the sweet smell of pipe tobacco, and it was about 30 seconds later that she mentioned the name of a former jailer by the name of Cedric who is deemed one of the evil entities on the site. Supposedly, when you smell that scent, then Cedric is present in the room. I’m a firm believer in the Charleston ghost stories.

    I agree, the Old City Jail in Charleston IS haunted!! I’ve been on the tour several times and it can be spooky. Zero hokey factor - kind of a history tour mixed w/ some ghost stories. Very cool. HauntedJailTour . com .
