Haunted The Dalles, Oregon

We recently visited The Dalles, Oregon, and I had to research and check out the local “haunts.” Today we visited the Haunted Clock Tower Ales aka the Old Wasco County Jail. Guests report hearing phantom talking and footsteps, apparitions, and mysterious alarms going off. Supposedly this location is haunted by Norman Williams (the only man hung at this courthouse) or one of the many clients of the former funeral home that rented the ground floor. Is there fact or fiction to any of these stories? Watch the video below to find out!
