S1 – 7: It Was a School for Troubled Boys

Preston School of Industry or “Preston Castle” as it’s been known, was built between 1890 and 1894 in Ione, California.

But, the castle soon became known for abuse, attempted escapes, murder, and now - one of the most notorious hauntings in the foothills of California.
