Episode 227 - Athens Asylum

A fourteen year old girl experiencing seizures… possessed. A man claiming to be the second coming of Jesus Christ… insane. A woman experiencing dissipation and is spending frequently… insane. Recommended treatments? Torture! Life at Athens Asylum in Ohio was anything but healing for the patients, and many spirits remain within its walls to remind the living of their haunting past.
