Cleveland Top 10 Creepiest Legends?

I was interviewed by John and the gang at Type 3 TV last night. In honor of Halloween, I hosted a poll on the site and presented the results of the top 10 creepiest legends in northern Ohio.

While there was initially some technical difficulties, the interview lasted about 90 minutes and covered the following legends:


Gray's Armory
South Bay Bessie
Squire's Castle
Rider's Inn
Witch's Ball
Helltown
Gore Orphanage
Mansfield State Reformatory
Franklin Castle
Melonheads



You can stream the entire show at the Type 3 TV website (it's in two parts, owing to the aformentioned technical difficulties), or you can grab my mp3 copy from here (Note: it's a 20.3M file) I want to thank John and the guys from Type 3 TV for having me on (again) and look forward to working with them in the future on some (possible) on-location haunts. Stay tuned, kids.

NOTE: It only took six years, but I finally got around to putting this interview on Youtube (with a static image of the ad for the show).  Easier than downloading (and mobile friendly!)

Here are two digital pictures I took during a tour of the prison this summer. I'm a skeptic, but I can't explain the images and the camera has never messed up.

Reformatory Ghost?

I took this pic touring the reformatory on my own when it was pitch back in August [2002]. The figure of the head in the background doesn't show up in any other pics so it's a bit weird. I can't explain why the head figure is so high in the air unless this individual hung himself in his past life.

This photo was taken at Mansfield Reformatory a week ago...friday the 27th. We felt a very rapid temperature drop and a very distinct presence moving past us (in solitary)...i snapped this photo....other than cropping the top off the pic its untouched.

Hi, my family and I visited the Mansfield Reformatory on Sunday, August 27th. I think this is an orb above the light fixture?? Or is it just dust?

Let me know what you think
