Then around 1947 or so, multiple inmates and guards complained of something strange coming from the showers.
matched
They were hearing banjo music.
matched
This was especially eerie because Al Capone wasn't at Alcatraz anymore.
matched
A few years before, he'd been transferred to another prison after his health seriously declined.
matched
And just a few weeks before the banjo music started, Capone had passed away of a heart attack in his Florida home just after his release.
matched
It was January 25th, 1947, and he was 48 years old.
matched
But to all appearances, his spirit was still lingering at Alcatraz, and he still loved playing the strings.
matched
When Oscar received an autopsy, the coroner said his injuries were not self-inflicted.
matched
They figured that someone had gotten past the guards, opened the door to 14D, and choked him to death.
matched
Some speculated that one of the guards may have used their key to break in and murder Oscar.
matched
But the murderer was never found.
matched
Which was how another rumor formed.
matched
This one saying, a dark spirit with glowing eyes lived in cell 14D.
matched
And that's what killed Oscar.
matched
And we know other inmates beside Oscar saw the creature with the glowing eyes because it happened so often they nicknamed it The Thing.
matched
And as far as we can tell, it never physically harmed anyone else.
matched
But time after time, prisoners would run to the guards begging for protection from The Thing.
matched
or employees would spot it in the halls while they were making their rounds.
matched
There are a lot of stories of strange, inexplicable events happening in the prison.
matched
For example, some have reported clouds of black smoke often appearing in the laundry room.
