Alright, ghost enthusiasts and history buffs, buckle up! We’re about to embark on a whirlwind tour of some of the most infamous haunted mental hospitals around the globe. These places are the cream of the crop when it comes to spooky abandoned asylums. First stop: the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum in West Virginia.

The haunted asylums and hospitals we’ve explored reveal the dark and eerie sides of America’s medical history. These locations, once centers of care, now serve as reminders of past tragedies and mysteries. The stories of apparitions, unexplained noises, and ghostly encounters continue to captivate and terrify.

And the next location on our tour of America’s haunted abandoned mental hospitals is the Essex Mountain Sanatorium. The sanatorium began as the Newark City Home in 1873, a facility which was designed to serve as an orphanage, as well as to reform the local badly behaved children.

With histories that are packed with abuse, torture, death, and mental anguish, it’s no wonder that America’s haunted hospitals are populated with the ghosts of the deceased, who roam the halls and corridors looking for justice they will never find.
