The unique festival setting—the historic Ohio State Reformatory—is considered one of the most haunted buildings in the country and the setting of the 1994 movie “The Shawshank Redemption.” The Ohio State Reformatory 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, Pennsylvania, 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.
