Abandoned Asylum: The Great Escape Attempts

The Great Escape Attempts

Here's a list of all the notable escape attempts from this abandoned asylum.

Escape Attempt 1: The Great Fire

In 1975, a group of patients decided to set off a fire in the east wing. The fire department arrived just in time to put out the flames, but not before it had spread to the west wing. The incident left 5 patients dead and 10 more injured.

Escape Attempt 2: The Tunnel Dig

In 1985, a group of patients dug a tunnel from the basement to the parking lot. They hoped to escape through the front door, but the tunnel collapsed, burying 3 patients under a pile of rubble.

Escape Attempt 3: The Ropes and Rags

In 1995, a group of patients used ropes and rags to climb down the walls and escape into the nearby woods. 2 patients were caught by the authorities before they made it to the trees.

And that's not all. There are more escape attempts, each one more ridiculous than the last.
