I recommend you to read Hospital 444, a mystery novel. The story was about the protagonist, Dai Lin, who became a surgeon in a strange hospital. In this hospital, what was treated was not diseases, but all kinds of terrifying and mysterious curses. The novel described the horror stories that happened in the hospital. Although other search results also mentioned novels related to hospitals and horror, Hospital 444 was the only horror hospital novel that was clearly recommended.
😋I recommend the book "Healing Director" to you. It's a novel about an urban and entertainment star. The main character, Fang Yan, became a third-rate horror film director because of her identity disorder. However, she accidentally discovered that there were ghosts in the real world. This book also has a similar haunted plot, which can satisfy your interest. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
Well, the Clark Air Base abandoned hospital was part of a large military installation. When the base shut down, the hospital was no longer in use. Over time, nature has started to reclaim it. There are tales of it being haunted, but that could be due to the fact that it's an old, empty building with a lot of history. There were probably many events that took place there during its active military days, and now that it's abandoned, it gives off an eerie vibe.
Definitely. There have been accounts of poor sanitation in some psych hospitals. Dirty rooms and unhygienic conditions can be very distressing for patients, not to mention the potential health risks.
Once upon a time, in an old, dilapidated hospital. A young nurse was on the night shift all alone. As she walked through the dimly lit corridors, she heard strange moans coming from an empty patient room. When she peeked in, she saw a shadowy figure on the bed, but when she turned on the light, there was nothing there. She quickly left the room, but then she felt a cold hand on her shoulder. She screamed and ran, never to work in that hospital again.
Well, it depends on how you define 'common'. In the big picture, there are thousands of psychiatric hospitals around the world and the vast majority operate smoothly. But every now and then, a story surfaces about abuse or neglect in a hospital. It could be due to a single bad apple among the staff or problems with the hospital's funding and resources. So, while not common, it's not unheard of either.
Story 3: An old, empty school building was said to be haunted. A new security guard was hired to keep an eye on it. One night, he saw a little girl in an old - fashioned dress walking down the hallway. He tried to approach her, but she disappeared. The next day, he found out from an old local that a girl had died in a fire in that school long ago.
Well, one horror story could be about the overcrowding in the hospital. Patients might not get the proper attention they need. Another could be related to misdiagnosis. A patient who actually had a treatable condition was wrongly diagnosed and had to suffer for a long time. And some might say that the lack of communication between the staff and patients' families is also a horror in itself.
It's hard to say for sure that all are true. But considering the historical context of some mental hospitals, it's very likely that there were issues such as neglect and improper treatment that could be the basis for these horror stories. There may have been some exaggerations over time, but there was probably a kernel of truth in many of them.
