Private Paranormal Investigations

Cresson Sanatorium & Prison offers overnight paranormal investigations inside a massive, abandoned historic complex spanning the original sanatorium and later prison structures. With limited lighting, deteriorated spaces, and a layered history, investigations are immersive, intense, and intentionally unmanaged.

Overnight investigations run from 7:00 PM to 4:00 AM.
