Episode 71: The Hauntings of Preston Castle

Preston School of Industry opened its doors in 1894 for the male wards of the state of California - hundreds of boys and young men passed through the halls of this correctional facility until its closure and relocation in 1960.  The history of the building and grounds (now named Preston Castle) will come in a later episode; today, Caro takes us through the paranormal activity that Preston Castle is now home to, and who these spirits might be.
