Bodmin Jail, Cornwall
Yvette Fielding and the Most Haunted team have visited some of the UK's most paranormally active locations relating to crime and punishment since they first started investigating haunted locations in 2002 as part of the television show.

The list of locations is made up of disused prisons, ancient jails, former courtrooms, grim workhouses and even police stations.

The list includes HMP Shrewsbury, where the team experienced so much paranormal activity, a lot of which was quite violent, that Yvette said she'd never return to HMP Shrewsbury.

During the investigation a crowbar was thrown several times, on one occasion only just missing Yvette. The team heard plenty of odd sounds including whistling, doors slamming, banging, footsteps. A trigger object in the form of a small wooden box was caught moving on camera, lights turned themselves on, cell doors were banged on from the outside, and most worrying, Karl Beattie collapsed for no apparent reason moments after reporting being kicked in the leg several times.

Below is a complete list of Most Haunted episodes which were filmed at locations related to law and prosecution.
