One of Britain's most haunted building is planned to be converted into a hotel. The historic Bodmin Jail in Cornwall is to be transformed into a luxury hotel with 63 bedrooms.

Bodmin Jail is very popular among British for paranormal activity as it held more than 60 executions in the year between 1779 and 1909. The present owners of Bodmin Jail are hoping to accomplish a complete restoration of the two wings of dilapidated cellblocks. The plans for the 63 hotel rooms above a museum has already been submitted.

Bodmin Jail shut down in 1927 and several parts of the jail have been turned into a tourist attraction. Visitors were able to learn about the history of the building and the prisoners who spent time in the jail. The television show Most Haunted with Yvette Fielding and Derek Acorah even filmed an episode in Bodmin Jail. Ghost Tours are provided around the property for those who love the supernaturals.

Twelve Architects, a company based in London, earlier this month submitted their application to transform some of the buildings at the venue in Cornwall. The plan includes the interior of each room featuring colors and textures enthused by the aged, weathered stone. Twelve Architects is currently working with a team including Sarner International, Montagu Evans, Arup, Turner & Townsend and Astute Fire. They developed schemes to convert Bodmin Jail to a modern visitor experience and teaching and learning resource, an advanced venue for private hire, and a 63-bedroom hotel, reported, Daily Mail.

As part of the proposals, Bodmin Jail will have a new 1,200 m2 building will also be built and house the Dark Walk attraction. This will comprise of a series of themed rooms containing picturesque sets, films and projections. This is to engage visitors in the history of the area and enable them to share the experience of inmates of Bodmin Jail.
