In this week’s story, “The Boy That Brought the Asylum Home,” by Mike Nesbitt, a young boy is haunted by a ghost his roommate accidently brought home from a clandestine visit to an abandoned asylum. Let’s just say, in this case, three’s a nasty crowd. Haunted asylums are popular with ghost hunters hoping to encounter and record spirit activity. We'll look at a few real experiences in a few of the most haunted asylums, including my own.
