Welcome to everyone new around here!

Apparently our owner puts a few holes in some mysterious walls, finds some stairs that lead to… well, not much 😂, and suddenly there are 30,000+ more of you following along.

So, a quick introduction.

Cresson Sanatorium & Prison is a massive historic property in Cresson, Pennsylvania, with more than a century of history as a tuberculosis sanatorium, state hospital, and prison. Today, it’s owned by the Sierens family, and our mission is pretty simple: preserve this place, share its history, and have a little fun while we do it.

That means history, exploration, photography, paranormal investigations, tunnels, strange discoveries, and apparently occasionally cutting holes in walls just to see what’s back there. We promise we've talked to him about his editing, he say's it'll get better.

Thanks for finding us. There’s a lot more of Cresson's Sanatorium and Prison to show you.

We bought a prison part 9 BLUEPRINTS!!! There are the original blueprints but caused more questions of what is there. So the house was moved to make way for a new cell block and has been in the current location since the 80s. So this work is interesting because there was new foundation that was put where it is now. Also looking at the foundation there appears to be windows that were in this foundation after the move!

Hey all, we’re sold out for tonight and can’t add any more spots.

If you’re planning on coming out for a public paranormal investigation in October, this is your reminder to grab your tickets soon, especially for Oct. 17 and Oct. 31.

Tickets for daytime tours (Fri/Sat/Sun, 9am–6pm) and Flashlight Tours (Fri/Sun, 7pm–midnight) are available online or day-of at check-in. Paranormal investigations require tickets in advance, and none will be available at the door.

Grab your camera, grab a flashlight, or bring both and get in some night photography while you’re here. Come wander Cresson after dark with us this October.
