The Ohio State Reformatory is considered one of the most haunted buildings in the country and was the setting of the 1994 movie “The Shawshank Redemption.” It is centrally located about an hour away from Cleveland, Columbus and Canton/Akron, Ohio, and within a three-hour driving distance of Toledo, Dayton, Cincinnati, Youngstown, Pittsburgh, northern West Virginia, Michigan and southern Ontario.
Escape from Blood Prison is the annual Halloween haunted house attraction hosted at the Ohio State Reformatory. It typically runs from the end of September through early November every year, but INKCARCERATION will make this spooky attraction available for festival-goers to experience all weekend long in 2019. Once Blood Prison takes over the reformatory, the enormous facility is filled with bloodthirsty inmates waiting for victims to enter and try and make it through the facility alive.
