Ever wanted to explore a haunted prison at night? Southern Grace Distilleries is giving you the chance to do just that with their most requested tour: **Convicted Spirits of Whiskey Prison**. This eerie adventure is not for the faint of heart! The distillery, located in a 90-year-old prison, has a history of paranormal activity, and for two nights in September, you can join an experienced paranormal investigator as they guide you through the haunted halls.
The tour will take you to the most active spots on the property where guests have reported unusual encounters with spirits. Feel free to bring your own ghost-hunting equipment, or just watch the pros in action. But keep in mind, ghostly activity can be unpredictable—each tour offers a unique experience, and the spirits might be more active on some nights than others!
At the end of the tour, share your own spooky experiences with fellow guests and guides over a cocktail. And remember—guests under 21 must be accompanied by an adult, and reservations are required. Don’t miss this chance to sip, explore, and maybe even meet a ghost or two!
