Night Behind Bars Experience
“From arrival to departure a great experience. Our hosts were informative, funny and scary. Evening meal, condemned last meal was plentiful, you do need to pay for the honour and breakfast was porridge and you don’t pay for. Would definitely recommend giving it a go.”
Night Behind Bars Experience
Dare to spend an entire night behind bars in one of Britain’s most haunted prisons, with the choice of Shrewsbury Prison in Shropshire or Shepton Mallet Prison in Somerset. This unique 12-hour experience locks you in overnight, where you’ll sleep inside a real prison cell and take part in an unfiltered guided tour led by a former prison officer. As you explore the grounds, you’ll uncover the chilling history of prison life, visiting cells, healthcare rooms, the executioner’s bedroom, and even the condemned prisoner’s cell. After a night steeped in atmosphere and ghostly tales, you’ll be “released” at 7am with a hot and hearty breakfast to set you free. Perfect for couples, groups of friends, or anyone fascinated by the paranormal, it’s an unforgettable way to step into the shadows of history.
