Weston State Mental Hospital (Moundsville: teach, place, pictures)

[surfsup4sure]

Has anyone had the opportunity to tour the Mental Hospital in Weston, West Virginia. It was abandoned in 1994 and finally sold to someone in 2007. The man who bought the hospital is now offering tours for 30-100 dollars. I teach AP Psychology and I was wondering if anyone had taken the tour.

Here are some tours for you.
Some say it is haunted, some tour with confidence.
I have not seen the hospital in a few decades plus. My good friends grandmother died there. Back in the day, late 60's I gather many folks who suffered from Alzheimers, before it was actually know for what it is today were sent there as schizophrenic, who knows.

I always found it as a spooky place, reminds you of a Silent Hill movie or something like that

Have not done it. The Moundsville Prison is supposed to be a good one to tour.
