The Ghosts of Charleston’s Old City Jail, Part One | Guest Andrew Kuhn

What happens to a place soaked in centuries of misery, violence, and death? The Old City Jail in Charleston, South Carolina, operated from 1802 until 1939, and left behind more than just a dark legacy. Tour guide manager Andrew Kuhn discusses the jail’s grisly past, including the brutal treatment of inmates, Civil War prisoners, and 19th-century pirates. At the center of it all is Lavinia Fisher—believed by some to be America's first female serial killer—whose final words still echo through the cellblocks. Visitors claim to see her spirit wandering the halls, answering from beyond the grave in chilling EVP recordings. From cold spots and disembodied whispers to full-body apparitions, this place doesn’t just remember its past… it relives it. 

Today on the Grave Talks, Part Two of our conversation about Charleston’s Old City Jail with Tour Guide Manager, Andrew Kuhn.
