It’s that time of the year when regular tours at the Ohio State Reformatory end and preparations for the annual Halloween season event begin.

This year, the popular attraction’s last summer public tours will take place on September 3. On the following day, the venue closes as preparations begin for “Escape from Blood Prison.” Regular day tours will not begin again until November 24.

Speaking of “Escape,” the following introduction has been posted on the event website:

The United States prison system is in disarray…The worst inmates all over the United States have escaped their respective institutions looking for a new place to call home. After numerous murder sprees and in some cases “Clown Sightings” across the nation, these psychopaths have found the destination they were looking for in Mansfield Ohio….

The Ohio State Reformatory!

Once known for filming movies and music videos, these crazed inmates have taken over and renamed it BLOOD PRISON! The authorities do not dare go after them as these extremely psychotic inmates have The Ohio State Reformatory locked down…..but every Halloween they open up the gates and dare anyone to try and make it through this once famous prison….

Do you have what it takes to ESCAPE BLOOD PRISON?!

We will have more on “Escape from Blood Prison” as it nears its opening date approaches.
