* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' has the quasi-overlord of Europe using Castle Heterodyne as a prison. The Castle is run by a fragmented [[AIIsACrapshoot artificial intelligence]] that interprets every order creatively as to cause the most death. This Castle is AxCrazy, it's inventive, and worst of all, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking it likes to think it has a sense of humor]]. Very rarely do the inmates actually complete their sentences. The Castle itself actually does employ some safety measures, primarily railings, but at the same time it has poison dispensers (clearly labelled) that are designed to curb illiteracy, giant killer jack-in-the-boxes in the nursery, a killer plant sitting in an open atrium, and a giant roaring fire consuming a section of the castle's basement. Considering the place was the home base of a family line of the most insane and violent {{Mad Scientist}}s in history, the Heterodynes generally deliberately designed it that way.
** It should be noted that a major part of why the castle was so dangerous was because the AI was fragmented: a fairly common occurrence would be that a prisoner is sent somewhere by fragment A so that the prisoner can do repairs, only to be killed by fragment B who thinks that the prisoner is unauthorized and up to something that must be stopped. The rate of repair increased dramatically after Agatha killed all the fragments and reloaded a single fragment from backup so that there was only one mind controlling the facility.
