This week we journey to Weston, West Virginia to dive into one of the most haunted locations in America. Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum was operated from 1864 to 1994 under several names, but it has one horrific story. From transorbital lobotomies, to two patients torturing and murdering a third, it is no surprise this hand-cut stone building is home to several spirits. Grab a blanket, and drink, and let's dive in!!
