There is a ton of info about this place on eastghost . com and also on carantics . com -- Documents show it was at least partly horrific, CIA LSD involvement, apparent instances of purposeful demonic possession. and lots lots more. Read the documentation on those two sites, or you won't believe it.

@streetsJG Yes people died there, in fact many. I was a patient there when I was 15 yrs old 1972-1976.
Many suicides and I know of one murder during my time there. I was having lunch with a patient who was a Professor at University of Chicago and the next morning he hung himself. This was before the children's hospital opened. I still have bad dreams about the place

Chestnut may be linked with Forest Glen (south of Mormon Temple) by more than just the shared involvement of Fort Detrick (biowarfare). We're researching that now on eastghost. CNL was a major, globally renowned facility - hard to overstate. They did not say "no" to the .mil or CIA and in fact were quite involved. NIH also. What a tangled web!

Frank Olson was dug up a few years back and, lo and behold, it turns out his corpse revealed that he had been bapped on the head (to daze him) before he was tossed out that window to his death. Numerous reports of CIA / drug involvement implicate Chestnut in all kinds of psycho-mil weirdness and intrigue. All you have to do is scratch a little, piece the quotes, fill in the blanks of likelihood. Who woulda guessed it, right in the heart of quiet old Rockville, all this drama...

One would-be alum was Frank Olson (see frank olson project) - the liaison between CIA and Army's biowarfare / LSD unit at Fort Detrick who was "suicided" from a tenth-story window at Statler Hotel in NYC, exactly according to CIA's how-to murder instructional book. Katie Graham Meyer (Graham was her middle name) had her husband committed after his infamous 1963 press club speech condemning the New World Order - he appears to have been drugged (LSD?) or forced there. certainly precedent for that.

didn't know the Beach Boys guy was there. You MUST check out Dave McGowan's writings about LAUREL CANYON MUSIC SCENE, that ties together the military, CIA, Charles Manson, Rolling Stones, The Doors, David Crosby, Frank Zappa and hundreds if not thousands of musicians. Did you know Manson recorded with the Beach Boys, that they hung out with Zappa, and Sharon Tate's dad was a CIA officer? The connections are shocking and far too numerous to be accidental.

some of the more famous "alumni" as you put it...were: Elizabeth Taylor, also the husband of kathryn Graham (owner of the washington Post) Brian Wilson (Beach Boys) - I lived right next door back in the crazy days of the lodge during the drug testing days--very scary place then
