Not only does she share some of her experiences with us, but we also talk shop about this week's haunted asylum – Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum.

    Do you believe in hauntings or do you have to see it to believe it?
     
    October really snuck up on us, but we have prepared a new series of haunted hospitals and asylums in honor of the Halloween season! Utica State Hospital is a massive facility still standing in Utica, New York. It was one of the first "lunatic asylums" in the state and possibly the US having opened in 1843. Utica State Hospital is known for being haunted (obviously) as well as the home of the infamous utica bed. We also chat about some local, Iowa folklore of the Black Angel. Cheers!
