Newgate prison was not just a jail, it was a brutal underground copper mine turned human cage. Prisoners slept in freezing darkness, chained together, sick, starving, and surrounded by filth. Many never made it out alive. 

Tonight, we descend into the shafts where screams once echoed off stone walls, where men died in the same place they were forced to eat, sleep, and relieve themselves. Loyalists, criminals, and the forgotten were sealed below ground as punishment. From its historic history to the shadow figures, disembodied voices, and overwhelming dread still reported today, Newgate prison has earned its reputation as one of the most haunted locations in New England.
