Ep.70: Ghosts Behind Bars and Bolted Doors
The empty hallways of abandoned asylums hold more than just dust and decay—they contain the lingering energies of forgotten lives and troubled histories. Join us as we walk through the shadowy corridors of America's most haunted mental institutions, where tuberculosis hospitals mysteriously transformed into mental facilities and eventually into something far more sinister.
We begin our journey at Rooney's Point, where reports of lights flickering without electricity and a mysterious "gray man" patrolling the grounds have locals and investigators alike keeping their distance. Then we travel to the massive Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum, where one of our hosts experienced a full-body shadow figure crossing directly in front of him during a previous investigation. The stories from tour guides using spirit boxes in murder rooms will make your hair stand on end.
Our exploration continues through Pennhurst Asylum in Pennsylvania, infamous for its scandals of patient abuse, where visitors feel unexplained tugs on their clothing in fog-filled tunnels. We also uncover the secrets of Waverly Hills Sanatorium and its notorious Room 502, site of a staff member's suicide and now one of the most actively haunted spaces in paranormal investigation.
What fascinated us most was discovering the common thread connecting these locations—all began as tuberculosis treatment centers before transitioning to mental health facilities. This pattern raises questions about the economic and social forces that shaped these institutions and the suffering that occurred within their walls.
Would you dare explore one of these abandoned asylums with nothing but a candle to light your way? We challenge each other—and you—to consider what lurks in these forgotten halls. If you've worked at one of these institutions or have experiences to share, reach out to us. The spirits are waiting, and we're ready to listen.
