  • Season 1, Ep. 4: Indiana State Sanitorium
    Oct 21 2024

    Today we join the cool kids and check out the Indiana State Sanatorium!

    One of the newer locations to be found to be quite rife with paranormal weirdness, this location spans quite a bit of acreage with several buildings and creepy steam tunnels for you to check out!

    A poltergeisty laundry room, a spirit that loves to run up and down stairs, and a very crabby man in the biggest building on the property is what you'll likely find here.

    We love a good location that puts money back into the building's care, and the chance to really uncover new paranormal activity really can't be beat!
