Northern State Mental Hospital - a photo on Flickriver

            At a time when mental health was a taboo, this insane asylum became a dumping ground for society’s unwanted—where overcrowding, cruel experiments, and mental murder were all too common. Many who entered never left, their fates sealed behind locked doors and whispered about in the dark.
