The Haunting

In 1860, William Fee was convicted of murdering an unknown woman and sentenced to
hang within the walls of this old county jail.


Now, it’s your turn to step inside and investigate the former Wayne County Jail and
Sheriff’s Residence. Explore the building’s chilling past, view the original inmate artwork
still sketched on the walls, and keep your eyes—and ears—open as you search for
signs that former inmates, sheriffs, or residents may have never truly left.
