no matter what anyone says psychiatric hospitals are the freakiest of places. The old St Annes Asylum in Cork scared the bejaysus out of me when i visited a few years ago. People were treated with electric shock therapy and laxatives to help "rid them of their demons" then locked in straight jackets to dwell in their own nightmare. Ghost stories still shroud the skeleton building in mystery. The walls are said to echo the tormented screams and anguished calls of the patients that went unanswered. Theres one isolation cell in particular that is said to be haunted. The tragedy is back then your family could commit you indefinately, so problem or unwanted kids who were completely sane were left there for life and labelled as "idiotic since birth". The place didnt help the sick, it created them, seems enough reason why it would be haunted. Its being turned into appartments now....would you be well.
