Prison (1988) – Filming Locations
Where Prison was filmed in Wyoming: the old Wyoming Frontier Prison in Rawlins.
Renny Harlin shot Prison in 1987 inside the empty Wyoming State Penitentiary in Rawlins.
Wyoming Frontier Prison
Address: 500 W Walnut St, Rawlins, WY 82301
Nearly the whole film was shot here, including the cell blocks and the prison’s real gas chamber. The crew cut a gate into the outer wall for the film.
Now a museum. Open by guided tour, with haunted tours around Halloween.
