For 113 years, Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary housed some of the country's most violent criminals and claimed more than 10,000 souls. Many believe that their ghosts still linger there. In this episode we look at Brushy's deadly history, profiles of some of its most infamous inmates and evidence of the hauntings that are still happening there today.

It's hot as a murphistopholes today, but we shouldn't complain! Not when there are hundreds of unfortunate souls who've gone up in smoke due to a phenomenon known as spontaneous human combustion. For centuries there have been countless reports of people who've caught fire without warning and without explanation. All of them share eerie similarities: nothing is left of the victim, save for a pile of ashes and a pair of feet or legs (and sometimes a skull). And despite the intense heat, nothing else is burned except for the victim and the chair or floor they rested upon. How? What makes this happen? How can we protect ourselves? Or should we just carry a fire extinguisher in our pockets at all times? Listen and learn!
