~HiStOrY~
St. Agnes Hospital for the chronically ill, in reality is Fairfield State Hospital located in Newton, CT. It first opened its doors in 1932. After several years, it became seriously overcrowded and understaffed. The staff members were very difficult to get and keep. This lead to the neglect, abuse, and often death of many patients. Also instituted were cruel and inhumane treatment procedures. This included electroshock therapy and the frontal lobotomy.
In 1972, the hospital officially closed. However, there are sections that have remained open. This is perhaps the reason the cast was not allowed to go above ground during their say at the hospital. The fate of the open portion is still being decided.
St. Agnes Hospital is known as a supernatural hotbed by paranormal researchers.
