St. Ainsley Psychiatric Hospital

Major Buildings

1. Main Administration Building (The Spire)

• Four stories tall, with a signature clock tower that no longer ticks.
• Houses patient intake records, security surveillance rooms, and long-disconnected intercom systems.
• Main entrance foyer features a dome ceiling with cracked stained glass depicting “the triumph of sanity.”
• Inside, old typewriters, overturned desks, and peeling wallpaper fill the offices.
• Second and third floors include archived files and sealed-off experimental wings once used for illegal treatments.

2. North Ward (Male Patient Housing)

• Crumbling dormitories with rusted bed frames bolted to the floor.
• Graffiti scrawled over doors—some in modern spray paint, others in older, cryptic symbols possibly connected to orgone experimentation.
• Contains a padded isolation corridor, most rooms clawed or burned from the inside.

3. South Ward (Female Patient Housing)

• [Nearly identical layout to the North Ward but features a collapsed central roof.
• Entire western wing is blackened from a fire in 1974, rumored to be supernatural in origin.
• Local legends claim screams can still be heard at night from the old hydrotherapy chamber.

4. The Arbor Building (Rehabilitation & Garden Therapy)

• A greenhouse structure overrun with invasive moss, strangled vines, and shattered glass panes.
• Used for patient therapy programs. The ground floor holds gardening supplies; the basement was converted into an unsanctioned lab in the 1980s.
• Scattered evidence of orgone-related experiments remain, including broken resonance cages and scorched floor tiles.

5. Dr. Halverson’s Residence

• The private residence of the hospital’s founder and final director, Dr. Ellis Halverson, who went missing shortly before the hospital was closed.
• Now completely ransacked—walls scratched with journal-like entries in manic handwriting.
• Basement door is locked from the outside, the metal warped as if someone—or something—tried to escape.

6. The Chapel

• A crumbling stone chapel with broken pews, shattered stained-glass depictions of exorcisms, and an altar scorched black.
• Hidden staircase behind the pulpit leads down into a crypt-like sublevel, originally used for holding patients deemed possessed or paranormally unstable.
• The sublevel contains an orgone reactor casing, long dormant—until now.

7. Staff Quarters / East Building

• Dorm-style housing with rusted bunk beds, frayed medical uniforms, and overturned lockers.
• Electrical panels stripped long ago, but faint traces of recent power fluctuations suggest someone has been there.
• Contains evidence of someone—or something—living there recently.

Tunnel Network

• Runs beneath the entire complex.
• Dim, tight, and reinforced, though many passages have partially collapsed.
• Crude chalk maps, left by urban explorers, mark certain tunnels as “cursed” or “unstable.”
• The tunnels were recently reactivated, power surges detected by Catamount’s scanner show residual orgone activity in the far west junction.
