This was so interesting and captivating. The glos prison certainly has a long crazy history. So well filmed, narrated and thought out. You've really made me want to go there. I'm so surprised to hear that the prison was for children too. Seeing the cells and inside them, you can imagine how sad, lonely and mind numbing it would have been. Absolutely brilliant! thank you for sharing x
Your welcome, the history is so engrossing. It will get knocked down at some point. The council want to sell it but it's not value for money as a developer would have to find all the bodies and there are still Castle foundations underneath. It is a very creepy place, its not a place I'd want to spend the night. M&T
@@MikeandTeresaExplore That's so sad that it'll be knocked down, yeah i can imagine how much is left unfound. crazy!! Still, a haunting and delightful visit :D
Hi Karen & Shannon, yes the really do have a lot of history to offer. I found out so much I've a more info that I coudn't get into the video. Will try and find a way to get them in with other videos in the future. Thanks for the comment M&T
Hi Alice. yes out on good behaviour. Agree this is a very grim place with surprising bad history. I’ve so much more info regarding all the hangings just didn’t have much video to go with it. Another time perhaps.
Thanks for the tour of this dark bit of history. New subscriber from Wandering of Watto shoutout during the Shrewsbury video. All the best and never stop exploring.
Omg I didn’t realise that Glos Prison housed young children too, that’s very sad. Looks very eerie in places. Interesting history too. Well done Mike & Teresa a great video. Stay awesome & we will see you soon x💕👌🏻
Hello Mike and Teresa. I just saw you on Watto’s Gaggle of RUclipsrs and wanted to say hello. I don’t think any of my recent relatives were imprisoned there, but generations past could have well been. Cheers to you both! Monk
This was superbly done. Excellently narrated, filmed, and, particularly, very well edited with the multi-photo overlays and graphics. Very interesting backstory too. My cousin's husband used to work there in the 1980s. I wonder what will come of the building? Great stuff 👍☺️📷 Cheers, Paul
Thanks Paul, not sure what will come of the building. I don’t think any builder would want to be digging up all those bodies. At present it’s not a financial option to build on and the current owners are making lots of money from events.
Hey Mike and Teresa, great to meet you last week Mike!! This is great, in a gruesome, weird sort of way!! It looks very similar inside to Shrewsbury Prison. The Disney characters we're a bit freaky. Wow, 7 year old and 9 year old, very sad stuff. We'll have to check the ancestors link. Really enjoyed this!!! Top work!
Thanks it was great meet you both. Yes was all creepy and sad. Did you get any filming done in Shrewsbury prison ? I would of loved to of joined you in there. So pleased you enjoyed it.
@@MikeandTeresaExplore We could tell that you really wanted to visit the prison too, we were gutted for you that you didn't. Yes, we got some great footage, can't wait to share it with you. We're thinking that the Shrewsbury video will go out on 6th November. We're in that rare position of having a few videos in the bag. I'm just working on a Halloween special at the moment which I think you might like. Did you mention about having a Jack the Ripper video coming out soon? Can't wait to see that!!! Cheers
Sorry thought I'd replied, yer it was a shame I wasn't able to go in but these things happen. Yes we've a done a Jack the Ripper video and have finished early was going to release it weekend of Halloween but going to do it early (Thursday) then try and get Shrewsbury done for Halloween.
Hi there, well I discovered something weird today ( well tonight actually being Down Under) I had subscribed ages ago and for some reason you've been dropped off my list. No idea how that happened. Apologies - but I'm back. I truly am in the dark as to what happened. What an interesting and sort of gruesome tale. Two boys 7-9 jailed because they stole- possible because they were hungry. Barbaric. Those were bad times. Thanks for the share. Clear commentary. My compliments. 👍🇳🇱🙋♀🇳🇿
Welcome back, glad you enjoyed the video. Hope you keep up to date with our future videos we've got some great ones coming soon. Yes there are parts of history that are barbaric. Thanks for the feedback on commentary its nice to know. M&T
Wow very interesting. Interesting that it housed very young children as well. Did you experience any paranormal activity whilst you were there? Very brave Teresa. I would be the same as you Mike and wouldn’t want the door shut! Really interesting to have a walk about there. Thanks for sharing 😊
Hi Yasmin, yes we were surprised how young the children were. It was too busy to know if there was any paranormal activity it is certainly a very creepy place to visit. I believe it's possible to book sleep overs if you dared !!!!!!! Not for me but Teresa would love that. Perhaps a birthday present :)
I didn't realise you could visit Gloucester prison. My great grandad was a governor there. I'll have to go check it out. Great video. Take care, Ellie. P.S. I'm watto's sister 🙃
Hi Ellie, yes its possible to still book a tour. They are not very often and not easy to find. I can get a link site if that helps. Ohh, do you have the name of your grandad ? I've a wealth of info about the prison, I'd got a book from a local historian again I can post more info if your interested. Watto has mentioned you when we've been out. Take Care M&T
@@MikeandTeresaExplore I've been working on my family tree for years and years, but I've yet to take an in-depth look at my g.granddad. I'll visit the prison one day, maybe next time I'm down. I've private messaged you on insta with what little I know of him. Think he had a rotational position which meant he moved from prison to prison. It's interesting stuff looking at what your ancestors used to do. Take care, Ellie.
Thanks for watching and comments. I did say but was gruesome in the title, I’ve loads more stories will have find a way of getting them in another video.

Wow - interesting tour - these types of places have so much history to offer! Keep making memories & adventure on! ~Karen & Shannon WOY

This was excellent! You captured the atmosphere really well and I loved the editing! Great little video - really interesting 👻
Thanks so pleased you enjoyed it. M&T
Very interesting. I see they let you out then. Prisons were very grim back in victorian times, conditions I just couldn't imagine enduring.
Hi Alice. yes out on good behaviour. Agree this is a very grim place with surprising bad history. I’ve so much more info regarding all the hangings just didn’t have much video to go with it. Another time perhaps.

Thanks for subbing and the comments, yes a very dark place indeed not somewhere I want to go back in a hurry.
The old hanging shed😵💫That was really interesting. Very cool about the snake designs.
Thanks, really pleased you found it interesting, was a bit gruesome.
Really enjoyed this guys. The prison certainly hold some restless souls. Great info and as always a good edit. 👍🏻🚶🏻♂️🚶♀️.
Thanks Paul. Not a place I want to go back too anytime soon and certainly not in the dark.
Omg I didn’t realise that Glos Prison housed young children too, that’s very sad. Looks very eerie in places.
Interesting history too.
Well done Mike & Teresa a great video. Stay awesome & we will see you soon x💕👌🏻
Thanks Kim, it’s a truly evil place. I wouldn’t enjoy a night in the dark there.

@@MikeandTeresaExplore Ah, thank you. I wasn't aware of any events there - I thought it was derelict.
Yes there are lots of different events going on….,., mostly Zombie shooting game things lol.

A bit gruesome like. Reminded me of a episode of Porridge in places. Some interesting stories and some great looking chaps jailed there 👍
Thanks for watching and comments. I did say but was gruesome in the title, I’ve loads more stories will have find a way of getting them in another video.
MAGENTA HAIR! I approve, Teresa!💖
Thank you T ❤️
Wow! I went there today, it was amazing
Yes it is a very spooky place. M&T
Part of the prison is now being converted into flats.
Yes we saw this in the news. Wonder where the ghosts will live ? M&T
Spooky!
Yes very spooky.
I’ve never seen mug shots showing the hands… weird! So bizarre to hear about the little children in the prison!
Yes the are odd, not sure why they had to do that.
There’s nothing scary about that place but only the people in there
Very true, thanks.

Thanks, M&t
First 🥇😊
Yes you are! Hope you also enjoyed the video :)
