Trans-Allegheny Asylum, Weston, West Virginia |
With its first patients admitted in 1864, this asylum commonly practised treatments which, by today’s standards, seem positively medieval: cage confinement and ice pick lobotomies, anyone? It’s not just the patients who were traumatized by these goings-on, however -
There have also been reports of unquiet nurses and doctors who roam the building, as well as young children, particularly one by the name of Lily who actively interacts with modern day visitors.
