No One Invited Us Ghost Hunting (Again): Trans-Allegheny Edition

Step inside one of America’s most haunted asylums — the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum in Weston, West Virginia. Once a monument to compassionate mental health care, it became a nightmare of overcrowding, lobotomies, and lives lost within its echoing halls.

This week, Sarah uncovers the asylum’s chilling history, the wild “diagnoses” that could get you locked up (spoiler: having opinions was apparently dangerous), and the horrifying reality of how lobotomies were actually performed. From restless spirits like Little Lily to the infamous Creeper said to crawl through the darkness, Trans-Allegheny is equal parts tragedy and terror.

Meanwhile, Sam and Colby are out here playing hopscotch with ghosts—and somehow, no one’s invited us.

Join Twisted & Mysterious for a haunted deep dive full of history, horror, and hilariously frustrated ghost-hunting envy.
