Wildwood Sanitarium - Do ghostly patients haunt this former hospital | Haunted Atlas
From Holistic Healing to Haunting Horrors: The Dark History of Wildwood Sanitarium
Step back in time to the early 1900s, when doctors John Henderson and Carol Perry transformed a beautiful home into a holistic healing center, focusing on osteopathy and light therapy. However, the outbreak of tuberculosis in the 1920s forced them to shift their focus to caring for TB patients, a task that continued until the disease became curable.
After changing hands several times, the building eventually fell into disrepair before being purchased by the Wagatha family in 2017. Renamed Wildwood Sanitarium, the family has been working tirelessly to restore the property to its former glory, offering it as a destination for paranormal investigations to fund their efforts.
But as the past is uncovered, so too are the spirits that still linger within the walls of Wildwood Sanitarium. From shadow figures in Tommy's room to the active energy in Linda's room, visitors have reported a myriad of paranormal experiences, including voices, orbs, and even physical touches.
Join us as we delve into the chilling history and haunting tales of Wildwood Sanitarium, a place where the past refuses to rest and the spirits of the past still roam.
