Hi folks,
I found you guys while searching for information on the Deridder LA jail. I have a close friend who works for the city there and invited me to see the jail. I've always told him about my experiences with feeling and hearing things in those types of places, so I asked him not to tell me anything about the history before entering.
There are a couple of things that I felt/heard while there. First I sensed some sort of presence "guiding" us through the jail. I kept hearing the word "warden" in my head over and over. That was the good part.
Third floor of the jail is not a good area. The first thing I noticed was the immediate drop in temperature when entering one of the cells. I wish I had my camcorder with me at the time because there were definitely some whispers that I picked up, mainly one telling me to get the "f" out.
I didn't feel comfortable in this area so I asked my friend to leave back toward the bottom floor. When we did, we both heard what sounded like footsteps, followed by banging on pipes coming from the third level. When I asked the presence to do it again, we immediately heard the sounds again.
Upon leaving, I was told of some of the history of the jail, including the fact that early in the history, a few of the prisoners were actually beaten to death by the wardens in the jail.
Anyway, I'm glad I found this site as it gave more confirmation to some of the things that I experienced there. I can't wait to go back, hopefully at night. I just feel like there is something there that is trying to tell their story. This was not the first experience with the paranormal that I've had, but it is the first time that I was able to actually confirm some of the things that I have felt, especially when I was a kid.
