Welcome to Episode 276 of Let’s Get Haunted: The 1959 Montana State Prison Riot!
In 1959, Montana State Prison became an actual living nightmare. What began as a violent uprising spiraled into 36 hours of hostage-taking, murder, and absolute chaos. Armed inmates seized control, guards were held captive, and the prison descended into a deadly standoff. But the bloodshed wasn't the end of the story. Decades later, some say the horrors of that night still haunt the prison's crumbling walls. This week on Let's Get Haunted, Nat is going back to jail as she drags Aly behind bars to uncover one of the most terrifying prison riots in American history.
