Days later, a hotel employee went to the hospital to be treated for an infection in his hand, which was teeming with a bacteria most often found in human ...

But thanks to dogged investigators and breakthroughs in forensic technology, these cases become part of the rare 1% of cold cases that are ever solved. Cold Case Files is hosted by Paula Barros.

Shadows of the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum

Constructed between 1858 and 1881, the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum was initially a symbol of progressive treatment for the mentally ill, based on the philosophy and designs of Thomas Story Kirkbride. With an emphasis on therapeutic sunlight, fresh air, and humane treatment, it promised a new dawn in psychiatric care; however, as decades passed, the asylum became a harrowing example of the system's failure. Overcrowding, poor living conditions, and the implementation of barbaric treatments, including lobotomies, marked its descent into a place of despair. This episode explores the stark contrast between the asylum's hopeful beginnings and its grim reality, culminating in its closure in 1994 and its enduring legacy as one of the most haunted places in the country.
Key Highlights
- Dorothea Dix's reform movement and her crusade to improve mental health care.
- Dr. Kirkbride’s revolutionary approach and philosophy to create mental health facilities intended to provide a nurturing and therapeutic environment for patients.
- The history of the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum, from its construction to its decline into an overcrowded institution with poor living conditions and inadequate care.
- The horrific practices and inhumane treatments, including the use of lobotomies, that were believed to help patients.
- The Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum’s paranormal legacy is one of the most haunted locations in America.
