Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

This is nicer than my house.

It looks cozy, but you still have the option to leave your home.

These amenities wouldn't necessarily make prison more enjoyable for me.

I think his cell door was actually left open and he was able to roam the prison whenever he wanted.

hmm.. Considering the muscle Capone had at his disposal to exercise, this doesn't really surprise me. I can also imagine a certain level of informality between him and some of the more routine watchmen.

Has anyone told Geraldo yet? He's probably still disappointed about the vault

[–]retho2 7 points8 points ago

There was nothing in Al Capone's Vault!

But it wasn't, Geraldo's Fault!

Since I was a kid, my dad has relentlessly made fun of Geraldo for this.

[–]xteve 2 points3 points ago

Yes, it did present a good reference point from which to view the buffoonery to which Geraldo Rivera had descended.

Did you actually go there? And if so, did you go to death row? I went back in high school and it was the CREEPIEST place I've ever been.

[–]MisterNucularWarlord 4 points5 points ago

It's a picture taken from Al Capone's wikipedia page.

..."went back"?

[–]RhettPS 14 points15 points ago

I think he means "I went, back in high school." As in, he went in high school, which was some time ago.

[–]HomeButton 12 points13 points ago

Oh.. That makes sense. I'm not sure why I didn't see that originally

Unless he was sentenced to death and escaped

Maybe he /was/ executed and is now haunting that place - while he's not on reddit.

they do a halloween haunted house tour there. It is quite creepy.

[–]state_and_fax 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I've been there several times. Death row was creepy, but I seem to always find the old barber's room and the "regular" cells much creepier. The facts presented with Capone's room make it much more interesting than just a photo.

Is it bad that the more pictures i see of what Prison is like for wealthy people/in Sweden, the more i contemplate becoming a gangster and murdering people just to get it?

what's the policy of living in those if you've got a shitterpot?

[–]zekkerjah 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

When it comes to pure efficiency, Sweden reforms its' citizens back to being obedient, productive tax payers. Why? Because when a public system contributes to your entire development (education, health, social workers) when you end up locked up in a cell you are actually a loss to the investment that was put into you. And that system represents society, and not "the man". When it comes to thinking about social justice in an economic sense, "locking" someone up is actually worse for everyone.

[–]THANE_OF_ANN_ARBOR 1 point2 points ago

So did they just retire this specific cell?

[–]throwaway1184 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I've been on a few tours but rarely sober so this could be wrong...I think they kept his stuff and re-decorated it at later period when the prison was closed. FUN FACT: There is a bookcase in the prison built in to a wall (without permission) by the crew of 12 Monkeys. They just left it there.

[–]state_and_fax 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

This is correct. They stashed most of his stuff, some things were donated and a small number are reproductions. The prison closed down not too long after Capone's stay.

[–]TheWitchIsBlue 1 point2 points ago

Has a nice rustic look to it.

I took the tour 2 years ago, it's as badass in person as it looks in this picture.

I actually live right next to Eastern State Pen. Al Capone's cell is in fairly good shape but the remainder of the facility is in shambles. Also, the Jewish Synagogue is one of the only places that has been completely restored, http://www.easternstate.org/support/completed-projects/alfred-w-fleisher-memorial-synagogue

I also recommend the gargoyle party when they put up the gargoyles in the front of the prison for Halloween as well as the "Terror Behind the Walls" tour. This has become quite the annual event for my friends.

I agree -- the old fella's really kind of let the place go. It could do with a bit of natural light, as well.

On Halloween, that place turns into an amazing haunted house, ranked one of the best on the East coast.

I've seen this on just about every paranormal television show. What I can't stand is when they claim that Capone was being 'haunted' by someone he had killed during the St. Valentine's Day Massacre.

The truth is, Capone was infected with syphilis. He was most likely hallucinating from the effects of the disease. He finally succumbed to the disease in his Miami home.

[–]yammerant 0 points1 point ago

During Halloween you can walk through this penitentiary where there are "haunted" actors and such. One of hte scariest walk-through Halloween attractions I've ever been to.
