This week is our spooky Halloween episode and we will discuss a few sinister "insane asylums" from America's dark past. We will talk about Nellie Bly and her ten days inside the Women's Lunatic Asylum on Blackwell's Island. Then, we'll discuss the Danvers State Insane Asylum, Willowbrook Asylum, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), and lobotomies.
