Hospitals, asylums, and important war sites are all hotbeds for haunted happenings, so it’s no surprise that this former mental hospital and Union soldier camp has had its share of scary situations. The institution closed in 1994, but people’s curiosity about the tales of mysterious slamming doors, shadowy figures, and bloodcurdling screams have kept it open year-round as there’s a large demand for haunted tours. The spirits allegedly belong to the former patients, who were likely ticked off about being committed for ridiculous reasons such as laziness, religious enthusiasm, women trouble, superstition, and birth control.
