Shrewsbury Prison

So if you have a story, we would love to hear it.

ever wondered what happens if you challenge a poltergeist do i have the story for you one woman named grace emailed and she said that a couple years ago her and her family were on holiday in shrewsbury england decided to do a tour of a recently closed prison it was a historic prison it's known locally as the dana but formally it's called the shrewsbury prison was the last prison in the area to prisoners by hanging Our guide was a former guard of the prison, and he walked Grace and her family through the different wards, explaining that prisoners were placed depending on how much money you had.

If you had more money as a prisoner, you could have a better experience.

But they also had a tuberculosis ward, a hospital, offices, a chapel.

would make it more authentic, but at the same time, they have done a massive challenge on their hands to try and make that as dramatic as possible in the opening 15 minutes.

And it's totally understandable why they use creative license to do these big helicopter stunts or breaking out from Shrewsbury Prison, which was a good one, because it then sets a storyline as well, which is what the heist did really well.

I do like it when...

the launch has a story.

So Shrewsbury Prison, there's sort of a reason for why they're on the run because they've broken out of prison.

The Celeb series where they all had ankle tag trackers on.

There's a bit of a reason why they're on the run because they've got to try and get those off.

So if you have a story, we would love to hear it.

the prisoners

Bart explains that the only place they're not allowed to tour of the prison is the cellar room.

No, because they don't exist, do they?

Do they not? Why then did you shit yourself in Shrewsbury Prison and put all the lights on when you thought none of us knew? Why did you, in that cell where you were supposed to sit on your own in the dark for 10 minutes, why did me and Jamie Hutchinson wander up and see the fucking light bursting through the door?

Because I didn't fit.

There was no point sitting there.

Mm

... um, Shrewsbury Prison.

Yeah.

Um, and there, there's many, many pubs like we've just mentioned.

So we try to kind of, we do try to find new locations all the time.

We've done Shrewsbury Prison, but as we say to our event attendees, and it's usually the same core of 20, 30 people, we try to find more affordable locations because, you know, it's Newsham Park's £1,300 a hire for a Friday or Saturday.

so we try to cap as many you know our numbers but then we have to put our price up to 60 pounds and then you know we we try not that's the most expensive one we have um shrewsbury prison was 1200 pound you know again we had to make it more expensive you know norton priory is is pretty reasonably priced at 750 pound but again If you don't want to put a high tier ticket price on, then you need more people.

So we try to find places where we can cap it at 20 people, still make a profit because that profit is what pays for the locations we film in.

But everybody gets the maximum experience.
