About this ebook

The darkest stories from the nefarious “Castle on the Cumberland” from a former prison guard and paranormal expert.

“The place sits on blood as surely as it does on stone and earth.”

The Kentucky State penitentiary opened its heavy iron gates to the condemned over 100 years ago—yet many of them, long deceased, still walk its corridors.

Noted paranormal researcher Steve E. Asher provides true, first-hand accounts of the paranormal as well as his own personal experiences at the state’s most violent, controversial—and haunted—prison. He uncovers the shocking testimonies of the men and women who have actually worked behind the prison walls and their encounters with the spirits of dead inmates.

The compelling facts found inside this book will leave you questioning everything you ever thought possible about life after death.

Ratings and reviews

I'm sure there were great ideas and inspiration for this book, but I could not get into it as I was too distracted by the writing. There is potential here for a good book, but it isn't quite there. Sorry, Mr. Asher.

Little Mix and fiction with elements of nonfiction very well written
