Eastern State Penitentiary - Terror Behind the Walls!

NOTE: All images are from my last weeks day trip!

Last night we was [Gil, Jasmine, Le, Chuva, Tasha and Me] at the #1 Haunted House in America! Terror Behind the Walls at Eastern State Penitentiary!

We gots our tickets online thru ticketmaster (Thanks Gil! Sana nilubos-lubos mo na din no! Hehehe… Tutal Ritz naman kayo eh.) Tickets are now on sale for a very-very-vey cheap price for as low as $23 per person including taxes! [Pucha ang yaman na naman ng Ciudad ng Philadelphia nito!] Magandang raket to pramis! I hope all those monies doesn’t end up in some others peoples pockets no! (Parang sa Pinas? ZTE at Fertilizer scams? Hahaha…) I hope not!

There were alot of people ha, their like kabute’s here and there no bigla na lang nagsusulputan sa dami! Maybe because, just like us - many people believe that Eastern State Penitentiary is haunted!

Among the shows to investigate or document the ghosts of Eastern State Penitentiary are MTV’s Fear, Haunted History, America’s Scariest Halloween Attractions, America’s Ghost Hunters, Night Visitors, Most Haunted (for a seven-hour live broadcast) and Ghost Hunters. It was also used as the setting of a mental hospital in the Terry Gilliam film, Twelve Monkeys. [TARAY!]

As an abandoned penitentiary that is reportedly haunted, it’s such a perfect fit for Eastern State Penitentiary to transform itself every year into a haunted Halloween attraction!
