If the walls of this creepy place could speak, what haunting tales would it tell? First opening in 1904 with only 95 patients, it grew to over 1,000 by 1915; and by 1955, had 3,186 patients. There were numerous buildings that were connected by underground tunnels. It was a very unhappy and frightening place, treating the criminally insane and patients who were mentally unstable. Reports and investigations of unethical behavior by the staff led to the bad reputation of the "hospital." There were reports of starvation, prolonged confinements, beatings and even a report of one being packed in ice. There were also reports of suicides and murders with some even occurring after they "successfully" left the place. They were finally shut down in 1996. Many believe it to be haunted.
