With the second season of Paranormal Prison underway, we now present the first Blood Prison episode where the members of I Prevail and Hollywood Undead traverse a gory haunted house inside the confines of the Ohio State Reformatory.
This special episode detours from our chilling paranormal investigations inside the prison with Machine Head’s Robb Flynn and Holy Wars, trading supernatural suspicion for fear and fright. And a load of laughs — these bands screamed their bloody heads off around every corner!

About Inkcarceration Music & Tattoo Festival and Danny Wimmer Presents
Inkcarceration Music & Tattoo Festival is held each year at the historic Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield.
Construction began back in 1886 and the prison was operational from 1896 through 1990 and it was also used in a scene in the classic movie, The Shawshank Redemption. While the prison remains open to tourism, the most exciting moment of the year is certainly when the fest rolls into town for a long weekend of rock and metal.
Fans are already looking forward to the 2025 installment, which takes place July 18, 29 and 20. The lineup, meanwhile, has yet to be announced, creating even more anticipation.
Inkcarceration is one of many of Danny Wimmer Presents’ premiere festivals. Since it’s formation in 2011, DWP has become a leading promoter in heavy music and beyond, building up the U.S. festival circuit that dominates the spring, summer and fall months.
The DWP festival roster also includes Aftershock, Born & Raised, Bourbon & Beyond, Golden Sky Country Music Festival, Louder Than Life, Rocklahoma, Sonic Temple and Welcome to Rockville.
