S9: Haunted Hospitals

Mysterious Radio
About this episode

Tonight, author Mark Leslie will discuss his book Haunted Hospitals, in which he examines hospitals, asylums, and sanatoriums with formal spectral residents who refuse to move on.

 Hospitals are supposed to be places of healing, places of birth, and places of hope. But with all of the varying highs and lows experienced in these buildings, is it any wonder when echoes linger indefinitely? How about asylums, which house some of society’s worst offenders and troubled inmates, or sanatoriums, places where the mentally and physically ill find themselves trapped, even after death?     Journey inside the history of these macabre settings and learn about the horrors from the past that live on in these frighteningly eerie tales from Canada, the United States, and around the world.
