Eastern State Penitentiary was once the most famous and expensive prison in the world, but stands today in ruin, a haunting world of crumbling cellblocks and empty guard towers. Its vaulted, sky-lit cells once held many of America's most notorious lawbreakers, including "Slick Willie" Sutton and "Scarface" Al Capone.The "Voices of Eastern State” Audio Tour, Hands-On History, artist installations, and history exhibits are all included in admission price. When you arrive, you'll get an mp3 player and headset that will guide you through the penitentiary complex and explain the prison's history. This audio guide, narrated by actor Steve Buscemi, contains a main audio route (for a general overview), plus additional stops for subjects like escapes, riots, sports, sexuality, and more. The audio guide is a great way to learn about and to see Eastern State Penitentiary.
