Haunting History Podcast - Een podcast door Tattered Tales Media Co. - Woensdagen

Step into the chilling history of Pennhurst State Hospital, Once a beacon of hope for the disabled, it became a nightmare of horror and abuse. Opened in 1908, Pennhurst quickly turned into a hellish institution, overcrowded and rife with mistreatment. By the 1960s, shocking exposés revealed its dark secrets, leading to its closure in 1987. But the story doesn't end there. Today, its abandoned halls are alive with paranormal activity—echoes of footsteps, disembodied voices, and ghostly apparitions of former residents and staff. Pennhurst is a haunting reminder of our past, where the veil between the living and the dead is at its thinnest. Join us as we uncover the years of human suffering that most likely cause the hauntings of today at what started out as Eastern Pennsylvania Institution for the feeble minded and ended as hell on earth as Pennhurst State Hospital
