Ghosts captured on Video at an Abandoned girls Reformatory!

Haunted echoes of troubled girls can still be heard at the abandoned campus of Alabama's Reform School for Girls. The Alabama State Training School for Girls in Chalkville, Alabama was founded in 1899 in the West End neighborhood of Birmingham and was originally known as the “Home for the Friendless.” The State Training School for Girls expanded to include four cottages to accommodate up to 25 girls each, a chapel, and outhouses for laundry, cooking, etc. The main house was used for school and dining purposes. The rules strictly regulated the women’s lives, including their dress, church involvement, bedtimes, and contact with the outside world. Escape attempts were often with girls explaining that they want to “get out.” In December 1951, eight girls broke out of the school’s detention hall by smashing the bars off a window. In 2001, more than a dozen girls went public with the allegations, which also included claims of physical abuse and consensual sex between teen girls and adult staff at the State Training School for Girls, and filed multiple federal lawsuits against the State’s Department of Youth Services. By the morning of January 23, 2012, the population of the State Training School for Girls had been reduced to 18 girls due to Alabama’s juvenile justice reform efforts. On that morning, an EF3 tornado with winds of 150 miles per hour swept across north Jefferson County. Eight buildings on the campus were damaged beyond repair, including the cafeteria, the school, and the gym, which were essentially leveled by the tornado. The facility has been abandoned for nearly a decade now. While the idea of demolishing the remaining buildings has been talked about, there are currently no plans for the site.
