| Summary |
A pair of paranormal investigators share the supernatural stories surrounding the legendary California island prison. Alcatraz is one of the most infamous prisons in the world. Evil spirits, unknown beasts, vicious murderers and an untold number of ghosts all are said to reside on this tiny island in San Francisco Bay. Rufus McCain, who died a brutal death at the hands of a fellow inmate, is said to roam the grounds, and the basement cells used for solitary confinement were rumored to be so frightening that inmates who endured one stint never wanted to go back. Multiple escape attempts were thwarted, including two attempts by Sam Shockley, who was later executed with fellow inmate Miran Thompson. Join Bob Davis and Brian Clune as they explore chilling tales of death, murder and savagery from America's Devil's Island. |
