Haw Creek: The Peoria State Hospital

Opened in 1902 as the Illinois Asylum for the Incurable Insane, the Peoria State Hospital treated thousands of patients in its 70+ years of operation. Was it a place of compassion and healing, or was it, as Ghost Asylum described it, a place where "countless people died undergoing barbaric medical experiments”? All I know is that whatever walks there, does NOT walk alone. _________________________________________ Episode Written and Produced by Tyler Liston Music used with full permissions and licenses from Artlist.io _________________________________________ Want to be a part of a future bonus episode of The Timber?
