In 1993, Leeds Crown Court opened on Westgate, ending the Town Hall's role as a courthouse.
Its police station and cells were closed at the same time.
The event is now full to capacity, but Most Haunted gave a preview of what would be in store on the night.
They said: "Investigate the old courtroom...The Crypt...The modern cells and the Victorian Cells...All located beneath the Town Hall in Leeds.

"Dark fleeting shadows are seen in the courtroom...are these past inmates waiting to be sentenced?
"Let's find out together."
