The Pottawattamie County Jail in Council Bluffs, also known as the Squirrel Cage Jail, is a unique and historic jail with revolving, circular, or lazy Susan, jail cells. It’s one of only three remaining squirrel cage style jails. The building was originally built on the site of a morgue for the old St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, and there were several deaths in the jail. There have been many reports of ghostly activity there, from sightings of a little girl dressed in gray inside one of the cells, to the feeling of tugging at people’s clothing. The jail is now a museum and is open for tours, if you dare. 226 Pearl St., Council Bluffs, IA.
