Directly across the road from the Ohio State Reformatory once stood a wood farmhouse. Locals remember the lilacs and a beautiful lily pond owned by Phoebe Wise.
It’s the late 1800’s. The townsfolk think she’s insane.
Negative energy rarely has a name. Not here! Elmo the Elemental isn’t a Mansfield Reformatory ghost once human. It’s known as an elemental. In other words, a build-up of energy appearing in photography taken by guests.
Not your normal ghost photo!
Ghosts come from history but also can be part of it. Over the years many inmates told guards they were really scared at night. Making Mansfield Reformatory ghosts different.
Said they’d wake to invisible hands grabbing at the bed sheets. Pulling them tight and loose as if a ghost was “tucking them in”.
The Administration Wing of Mansfield Reformatory. Location of the Warden’s office and family apartment. This is where both Arthur and Helen Glattke began their journey into death.
And where some say they remain.
Why would free men want to return to the town where they served time? Robert Daniels and John West came back in 1948. Not far from the Mansfield Reformatory. Bringing with them the darkest event in the Mansfield, Ohio’s history.
Daniels was a “psychopathic personality”. West was called “a moron”. They became friends in a Mansfield Reformatory cell. Connected by a shared enjoyment of crime and chaos.
It’s one thing to face the darkness of the prison as an inmate. Try as a Mansfield Reformatory guard. As Dr. Phil says, “No matter how flat you make a pancake, there are two sides!”
The inmates had their stories of tragedy and death. But being a in this position wasn’t easy either. These examples make me hope they had decent salaries.
