Odd Things I've Seen: The Podcast   /     Episode 24: Running [to] the Asylum

Description

My obsession with Danvers State Hospital (aka Danvers Insane Asylum) started with the horror movie Session 9 back in 2001, which was filmed inside the then 120-year-old abandoned asylum. Over the next two decades, I visited the site, found the asylum cemetery, watched Session 9 on the site where it was filmed, and, just a few months ago, returned to find the second asylum cemetery. This is the whole story. Photos from my first visit to Danvers State Hospital. Photos from my second visit to Danvers State Hospital (to watch Session 9). Photos from my visit to the second Danvers Asylum cemetery. Address for Danvers State Hospital site: 1101 Kirkbride Dr., Danvers, MA Address for second Danvers Asylum cemetery: Gregory St. and Middleton Rd., Middleton, MA My Cursed Objects book is up for preorder. Want to learn about the oddities I visit in real time? Follow me on Twitter, Facebook, or Patreon. I also write other books that you can buy. Spooky books.
