In this episode, we're uncovering ten of Ohio's most haunted locations, where history meets the supernatural. From eerie prisons to ghostly mansions, the Buckeye State has plenty of haunted tales to keep you up at night. So grab a cozy seat, turn down the lights, and join me as we explore the haunted side of Ohio. Featured Locations: Ohio State Reformatory 100 Reformatory Rd, Mansfield, OH 44905 The Ohio State Reformatory is also rumored to be haunted by a guard who once worked in the East Cell Block, where he was reportedly murdered by an inmate. The guard's ghost has been seen wandering the upper levels, and some visitors have experienced sudden cold spots and the sensation of being watched. Ghost tours of the Reformatory are known to provide EVP sessions and access to areas where paranormal activity is most intense. Moonville Tunnel Hope-Moonville Rd, McArthur, OH 45651 In addition to the railroad worker, some visitors have reported seeing the apparition of a man dressed in 19th-century clothing, believed to be one of the miners from the old town of Moonville. The area surrounding the tunnel is also known for strange misty figures that seem to materialize along the tracks, leading some to believe that the entire ghost town of Moonville might be haunted. Franklin Castle 4308 Franklin Blvd, Cleveland, OH 44113 Another haunting tied to Franklin Castle involves a ghostly child, believed to be the spirit of a Tiedemann child who died in the house. Visitors have reported hearing the sound of a child's laughter and feeling sudden drops in temperature. The secret rooms and passageways within Franklin Castle are also said to conceal a dark history, and some believe the castle's haunted reputation is tied to these hidden areas. Cincinnati Music Hall 1241 Elm St, Cincinnati, OH 45202 The Music Hall is also known for its phantom orchestra—guests have reported hearing the sound of an entire ensemble tuning up and playing music that seems to come from the walls themselves. During a late-night renovation, workers reported strange lights in the grand ballroom, as if a ghostly ball was being held in the empty space. Old Licking County Jail 46 S 3rd St, Newark, OH 43055 In addition to Carl Etherington's ghost, the jail is also haunted by the spirit of a former inmate who was believed to have been wrongfully convicted. Visitors to the jail report hearing the sound of sobbing and have seen a shadowy figure sitting in one of the cells, as if still awaiting release. Some investigators have captured eerie EVPs, with voices calling out for justice. Buxton Inn 313 E Broadway, Granville, OH 43023 Guests have also reported seeing a ghostly cat that roams the Buxton Inn, believed to have belonged to one of the inn's previous owners. The phantom feline is often spotted lounging by the fireplace, and guests sometimes feel a sudden, inexplicable warmth when it appears. The inn's basement is also rumored to be haunted, with reports of moving shadows and ghostly whispers. The Ridges (Athens Lunatic Asylum) 78 Hospital Dr, Athens, OH 45701 In addition to Margaret Schilling's ghost, some visitors report seeing shadowy figures in the old asylum's graveyard, where thousands of patients are buried in unmarked graves. Paranormal investigators have captured unusual readings and cold spots in the graveyard, which many believe is a hotspot for spiritual activity tied to the asylum's past. Lafayette Hotel 101 Front St, Marietta, OH 45750 The Lafayette Hotel is also known for sightings of a ghostly couple dressed in formal attire, believed to be guests who perished in one of the hotel's fires. Witnesses have seen the couple dancing in the hotel's ballroom, as if reliving a happier time. There have also been reports of old-fashioned music playing in the background, only for it to stop suddenly when someone enters the room. Majestic Theatre 45 E 2nd St, Chillicothe, OH 45601 The Majestic Theatre is also haunted by the spirit of a former performer who is said to linger in the backstage area, still preparing for his final curtain call. Staff have reported hearing the faint sound of a piano playing, as well as disembodied voices singing old show tunes, even when the theater is empty. The theater's dressing rooms are known for their eerie vibes, with makeup mirrors lighting up on their own. Prospect Place Mansion 12150 Main St, Trinway, OH 43842 Visitors to Prospect Place Mansion have also reported hearing the sound of horses' hooves and wagon wheels near the barn, where many enslaved people were hidden during their escape. Some say they've seen the apparition of George Adams himself, standing near the mansion's front door, keeping watch over the historic home. Paranormal investigators have captured strange anomalies in the barn, where a sense of unease often hangs in the air.

Join Mel and Lisa as we discuss Tananarive Due's The Reformatory. When 12-year-old Robert Stephens is sent to Gracetown School For Boys, a reformatory, he finds himself in a nightmare. Like many children in Gracetown, Florida, he has a special ability to see ghosts, a “talent” which the warden exploits, charging Robbie with the task of getting rid of the “haints” of the boys who died because of the warden's cruel treatment.    NEWS: We have a Bookshop.org shop now!

On September 6th, 1952, Betty Butler viciously murdered Evelyn Clark, while fishing at Sharon Woods. An argument occurred, and once they were back to shore, multiple witnesses saw Betty attack and drown Evelyn. No one denies Betty is guilty, not even Betty herself, but what happened to cause such a violent crime? Join us as we peel back the layers of this case and try to understand why Betty did it. Tea of the Day: Shaka Sunrise TeaTheme Music by Brad FrankFor a full list of sources, go to https://tea-time-crimes.simplecast.com/episodes.Sources:Deadly Women: Season 10, Episode 13, “Friends to Foes.” Episode aired Nov 26, 2016, Director: Ryan Osmond, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6276114/Spooked by Ken Summers, “Dead Women Tell No Tales…Or Do They?” Wednesday, August 3, 2011, https://moonspenders.blogspot.com/2011/08/dead-women-tell-no-tales-or-do-they.html“'A War of Currents': The Real Story of Thomas Edison and the Invention of the Electric Chair.” By Kevin Martin, May 08, 2019, Magellan, https://www.magellantv.com/articles/a-war-of-currents-the-real-story-of-thomas-edison-and-the-invention-of-the-electric-chairReport: Ohio's Capital-Punishment System Remains Unworkable, Ohio Attorney General, April 1st, 2024, https://www.ohioattorneygeneral.gov/Media/News-Releases/April-2024/Report-Ohio%E2%80%99s-Capital-Punishment-System-Remains-UnDepartment of Rehabilitation & Correction, “Capital Punishment: Overview.” https://drc.ohio.gov/about/capital-punishment/capital-punishmentDeath Penalty Information Center, “History of the Death Penalty.” https://deathpenaltyinfo.org/state-and-federal-info/state-by-state/ohioSTATE v.

In this episode, Steve and Tananarive talk about the surprise rise of Vice President Kamala Harris as the presumptive Democratic nominee for president as a "plot twist" -- and how plot twists in narratives can create excitement both in real life and in storytelling. Tananarive also talks about how she came up with her biggest plot twist in her novel THE REFORMATORY (spoiler free) and how you can too!  LEAVE US A VOICEMAIL at https://www.speakpipe.com/LifewritingPodcast (We might play your message!)

Twelve-year-old Robbie Stephens, Jr., is sentenced to six months at the Gracetown School for Boys, a reformatory, for kicking the son of the largest landowner in town in defense of his older sister, Gloria.

Scofield designed the striking limestone building to be an uplifting, inspiring, and intimidating structure. The Reformatory was originally called the “Intermediate Penitentiary” since it accepted inmates who were too old for juvenile corrections but had committed offenses more minor than those that sent others to the Ohio State Penitentiary. The facility admitted its first inmates in 1896 after ten years of construction. The goal of the institution was truly to “reform” and rehabilitate its inmates, who received three things during their time at OSR: religion, education, and a trade. Inmates were admitted for 18 months, and if they showed progress, they could be released after that time. If not, they received another 18 months.  The model was successful and OSR had a high success rate and a low recidivism rate. By the early 1960s, however, the state pulled its financial support from the Reform model and began converting OSR into a maximum security facility, a purpose for which it was never intended. By the 1980s, the conditions had deteriorated to the point where the inmates sued the state of Ohio. The lawsuit was successful, and construction began on a new modern facility nearby. The Reformatory was finally closed in 1990. It sat empty for several years until local activists rallied to purchase the building from the state (for $1) and committed to repairing and restoring this historic structure.   Stimson Hospital This structure was built in 1870 as a private home. Years later, it was acquired by a dentist, Dr. William Claudius Puffenberger. Sometime around 1917, Puffenberger sold the house to Harriet Chapman, who, along with co-owners Charles Stimson & Francis R. Blanchard (both doctors), turned it into a hospital in 1918. Only a few months after the hospital opened, Dr. Blanchard stepped into an open elevator door and fell to his death down the shaft. A few years later, on August 17, 1922, Dr. Puffenberger committed suicide at the age of 45 by shooting himself.     AuGlaize Village AuGlaize Village was founded in 1966 by the Defiance County Historical Society.  The society received 40 acres and the big red barn in 1966 from the Mansfield Family.  An additional 80 acres was later added.  In 1975, the Society decided it best to turn over the museum complex to the people of Defiance in hopes that the County Commissioners would be able to get grants and assistance that a small 501c3 would not be able to get on their own.  The Defiance County Historical Society operates the Auglaize Village through a Maintenance & Use Agreement for the Defiance County Commissioners. 55 plus years later, AuGlaize Village is still going strong drawing people from the tri-state area for its activities and festivals.  But our world has changed.  People are busier than ever and volunteers are hard to recruit.  The locally owned factories are a thing of the past in Defiance and so AuGlaize Village must change with the times. We are always looking for Tuesday volunteers and people willing to work in the office with the collection as well as Event Volunteers.  We are willing to train!  Please contact us if you are interested.

While looking for recordings of Elizabeth G. Flynn I found this in the Walter P. Ruther Online Library at Wayne State University. The audio player was broken on the website, but I figured out a way to downloaded the source audio anyway. It was also very low quality so I put a little effort into remastering it so everyone can enjoy it. Solidarity. -Lina Source: https://reuther.wayne.edu/node/12892 Original Description: A conversation with Elizabeth Gurley Flynn in which she discusses her upbringing and entry into the political scene as the “girl orator,” her organizing efforts and labor defense work on behalf of the Industrial Workers of the World (I.W.W.), and the evolution of her political beliefs. Of particular interest is a description of her arrest under the Smith Act and her years spent in prison at the Women's Reformatory in Alderson, West Virginia. Keywords: Industrial Workers of the World, Communism, Socialism, Lawrence Strike, Joe Hill, Herbert Hoover, Bill Haywood, Joe Hill, McCarren Internal Security Act, Smith Act, Palmer Raids, Tom Mooney, Sacco and Vanzetti Trial

In this episode, Tananarive opens up about why it was so difficult for her to write her novel, THE REFORMATORY, and why it was such a thrill to win Best Novel at The Bram Stoker Awards -- the first Black author to win Best Novel!  How she motivated herself to write a difficult novel based on her family history while juggling parenthood and screenplay assignments. And how the Lifewriting principles helped her keep going even when she wanted to give up.  Join Tananarive's mailing list at tananarivelist.com  Join Steve's mailing list at stevenbarneslist.com  LEAVE US A VOICEMAIL at https://www.speakpipe.com/LifewritingPodcast (We might play your message!)  Learn more about your ad choices.

Celebrated horror novelist Tananarive Due has a personal connection to the now-infamous Dozier School for Boys in Florida. Her great-uncle died at the school in the 1930s under suspicious circumstances. Based on that family history, Due crafted her novel, The Reformatory, which follows a young Black boy named Robert who's sent to the Gracetown School for Boys and has to learn how to survive such a violent place, as ghosts from the past haunt him. Due joins us to discuss.

Joniece Abbott-Pratt masterfully re-creates a 1950s Florida reformatory in this story based on a relative of author Tananarive Due and other actual people and events. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Kendra Winchester discuss this painful but essential story. Listeners meet 12-year-old Robbie Stephens, Jr. after he's arrested for defending his sister Gloria from a white boy. While in the segregated reform school, Robbie experiences and witnesses unfathomable punishment. Abbott-Pratt expertly portrays the story's crushing atmosphere, as well as fearless Gloria fighting to rescue Robbie, terrified boys, and, most movingly, the “haints”—ghosts of dead boys—who assist Robbie with his escape.
