Haunted Prison of Mira Lorma Prison

Lockdown in Lancaster

The Mira Loma Detention Center is a prison and detention center in Lancaster, California. A jail in Los Angeles County is under contract with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It has numerous buildings in the sixty acres area.

War Eagle Field, an airstrip in Lancaster, was formerly the Mira Loma Detention Facility. Meyer Himelstaub, a cadet in the Royal Air Force, was killed at the airfield in 1942 when he walked into a spinning propeller. His “funeral” was attended by about 200 individuals.

Deputies and prisoners have described unsettling incidents at the Mira Loma Detention Center. The Ghost Adventures are the first to investigate the abandoned prison and former tuberculosis hospital.

During the paranormal investigation, a crew member was injured and volunteered to enter a jail cell. Despite the approaching 100°F temperature outdoors, she felt chilled. Although the door to the jail cells appeared to be unlocked, she could not open it by pushing or pulling. She seemed imprisoned by a spirit or presence forcing it to close.

It was like the paranormal crew wanted to hurt one another; the presence of the building and the inmates who died there messed their minds up.
