The Hospital for the Incurably Insane was established in 1885 on 320 acres of land provided by the city of Norfolk. Successive name changes over the years have gone back and forth between the “incurably” to the “chronic” insane, without disguising that most patients “treated” here would never leave via the front door.
Between 1917 and 1963, 902 individuals were sterilized in Nebraska, roughly 18% of them deemed mentally ill. Apparitions, disembodied voices and footsteps have been reported at the Norfolk Insane Asylum in Norfolk, Nebraska.

Bachelor's Grove Cemetery is a small, abandoned cemetery in Bremen Township, Cook County, Illinois in Chicago's southwest suburbs. It's well known for its haunted reputation and supposed ghost sightings. The cemetery has also been known as Bachelor Grove, Batchelor Grove, Batchelder's Grove, and Everden. The land surrounding Bachelors Grove Cemetery was originally settled by English homesteaders who relocated to the area from New England, including Stephen Rexford, arguably the most well known of the first wave of Anglo settlers, around 1833. Ursula Bielski, author of "Chicago Haunts," asserts the actual cemetery was originally named the Everdon Cemetery after the original holder of the property title, Samuel Everdon. The site saw its first official burials around 1840 and contains 82 plots, many of which were never sold or used. Burials, however, possibly go back as far as 1834, when German immigrant workers killed while working on the Illinois and Michigan Canal were reportedly laid to rest at the site. The site is often reported to have been a dumping ground for victims of Chicago's organized crime families of the 1920s and 1930s, but no evidence of this has been proven. Claims of hauntings peaked in the 1970s and 1980s. Paranormal researchers James Houran, Timothy Harte, Michael Hollinshead and Ursula Bielski conducted a series of experiments at Bachelors Grove Cemetery in the 1980s and 1990s. One of these, a photography experiment, was published in the Journal of Perceptual and Motor Skills (1997) and found that, while no anomalous images were obtained from Bachelors Grove Cemetery, approximately half of the frames on both infrared and black and white films were unexposed. The results are discussed in terms of ambiguous events being interpreted as meaningful due to paranormal contexts. The Ghost Research Society has conducted numerous investigations into the reported phenomenon, and their results have included images which contain light resembling ectoplasm as well as orbs. One photograph, taken by Judy Huff Felz in 1991, includes a full image of a ghostly figure. Researchers have also reported electronic voice phenomena in the area.

Ward's Funeral Home - photo by sonofgawddog
"We stumbled upon this place - in the part of Opelika that has "homes with bars on the windows" (the bad side of town). It is a funeral home that has been abandoned for years. I could not help but take a closer look - sure enough I found a room with coffins. I was almost tempted to find the embalming room, but truthfully I was too freaked out. A "local" said people see ghosts in the windows at night."

The Joshua Ward House, built in 1784, is one of the first brick houses in Salem, Massachusetts. Its interior woodwoork was done by noted Salem builder and woodworker Samuel McIntire, including an original staircase that is the oldest surviving staircase created by him. George Washington is reported to have specifically requested staying in this house when he visited Salem in 1789. The house was used in the 19th century as a tavern, and was built on the same site as the former home of Sheriff George Corwin, famously associated with the Salem witch trials. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and included in the Downtown Salem District in 1983. Reports of paranormal activity throughout the years include, apparitions, cold spots, voices, feelings of being watched, and shadow figures.

When Anastassia was flipping through an old family album, she stumbled across a photo of herself playing with her pet birds when she was four years old. In the background was another girl holding what looks to be a stuffed animal. But the crazy part is, Anastassia says there was no other little girl there when the picture was taken—well, not living at least. Her parents also confirmed that they had never seen that child before. And as if this story wasn’t creepy enough already, Anastassia allegedly was later told by a psychic, without being prompted, that the “spirit” of a young girl was following her.
