Episode Five Season 2: Refuge For the Unwanted
Manage episode 229920700 series 1287975
Psychiatric hospitals, mental institutions, mental asylums, lunatic asylums, nut houses, funny farms, the loony bin. Mental health facilities of bygone eras have gone by many names, and not all of them complimentary or kind.
These hospitals with their dark and intriguing architecture, their rundown appearance and supernatural reputations are frequently considered awesome places filled with ghosts and misery.
But these places were often home to individuals within society who had no one to care for them and nowhere else to go. These places were their home.
