Judge Issac Parker's Haunted Courthouse - Fort Smith, Arkansas
Judge Issac Parker's Haunted Courthouse
I'm proud to say I was born in Fort Smith, Arkansas, but back in the 1800's, it was a rough place to live. Judge Issac C. Parker served as Judge over the United States District Court of Western Arkansas. He became known as the hanging judge. Parker sentenced 160 to death, 79 of them were hung which set the scenario of this place still being haunted by Judge Parker and the people that were put to death.

Most of its artifacts are from wineries that are no longer active. They enable you to see the process as it was many years ago and follow this art step-by-step from the grape to the bottle.
