The Mystery Behind Bull Street Asylum
A place that is frozen in time with terror embracing every step you take towards it.
Many people thought it was strange how a Mental Health Asylum could be the source of love and pride for the people of Columbia. Bull Street Asylum was built in 1822 and was the second oldest asylum in the United States of America. Being one of Columbia’s five historic landmarks, the asylum was created so that it would not allow you to see the moon. It was believed that the moon contributed to the lunacy, the hospital representing its need to encompass and restrain anything that could be anything close to mental illness in the first place.
Being a relevant part of Columbia’s history, it caused a lot of clashes between explorers who were entranced with its background and the police who were trying to protect it from being trespassed. However, it harbored a dark past. One which was guarded after presiding over more than 200 acres of the land in Columbia. Secrets that would never settle well with modern-day era and its outlook on medical treatment.
