I was an Oakland Ca cop from 1989-2000. I got to know a bunch of guys from San Francisco and the coast guard. Long story short, a guy knew a guy who worked as a ranger at the rock. Once a month, he would let about six-eight people stay past closing time. It cost 75 bucks. No break for me being a cop. He had food (b-b-q) and you brought your own booze. We slept in the cells, doors open, all in the same block, D-block, the one that leads to the door of the courtyard. We were able to sit out at night (cold, and this was September) and drink beer and just b.s. in yhr courtyard. No women, all men. Ranger didn’t want any women saying they were raped or something. I slept pretty soundly that night and didn’t hear a thing (probably all the beer and such). Two other guys said they couldn’t sleep a wink, they kept hearing noises all night. It is and OLD building, there a bound to be noises but I don’t think there are any ghosts…

Hi,
I have my own Alcatraz story.
I went there a few years ago with a Nephew of mine.
We have no interest in or even like the subject of Ghosts,Aliens etc
Find it kinda boring to be honest.
Anyhooos,,we went wandering in and around the solitary confinment cells,
Sampling the darkness with the door somewhat closed I snapped off some pics in the darkness.
Later when we were looking over the pictures we were very suprised to find a man or we thought a fellow tourist standing in the cell with me.
I did not feel or see anyone at the time there with me so I must admit I was a bit taken back by the whole thing,but time past and I not being a ghost person just forgot the whole incident.
My nephew sent it in for some kind of checking over by a photography lab and they were very intrigued.
I have a copy of the pic when people want to see it and I know its on a ghost hunters website at the moment (nephews idea)and very convincing they say.
So who knows,,I felt nothing,seen nothing,heard nothing but am at least once a year asked to tell my Alcatraz ghost story.

Sounds really cool. I would totally LOVE to visit sometime. This kind of thing is a hobby of mine. Even though I have never seen anything before. It would still be really neat to go do soon.

That is one of the least imaginative stories I’ve heard. People use that excuse to make up a story all the time just to make it seem like they’ve seen and or heard a ghost. That’s just so stupid says my friend a I totally agree.

I agree with Erin. In the old Wyoming jail we went for a school trip and people kept telling that same story, everyone uses it, it’s like way overused. When we moved to a new house my little brother kept saying that same thing. It’s getting dull peoples.

one time about twenty years ago i slept the night at alcatraz.i set up a video camera on a tripod and left it recording all night. at about midnight i heard the banging on the cells near me and it got closer and closer. soon enough it stopped at my cell. i was so scared i nearly passed out and when i came to i yelled whos there! i got up and walked to the bars and could see no one in the shadowy darkness. turning around i lit my lighter and looked to the other side of the cell and standing in the corner was an inmate staring right at me coming closer. he appeard to be a white man with his hair slicked back and he said what are you in for son? i could not reply i was to fightened…then he dissappered. when i reviewed the tape he was there the whole time walking around my cell.. i totally just made that up and scared my self while doing it hahaha

I took my kids there and we are pretty perceptive as far as the ’supernatural’. However, the shower room was the only place we felt ‘uncomfortable’ and no where else.
