My stepfather was there in the late 1950's and early 1960's. He used to help dig the graves for dead patients. When we visited him, we bowled and played ping pong and shot pool. He died there. I went to work there as my first State job and was an intake secretary. When I had to go to one floor (for the criminally insane) the keys to open the door were huge!
My grandmother...my father's mother...was committed here. She abandoned my father when he was 9. She committed suicide at Binghamton by ingesting cleaning fluid. 'Back then' they could not treat her after ingesting the poison. Took her 3 days to die. I just recently learned this as we dug through our family history. This video haunts us....it shows us rooms...halls...corridors...that she saw...in her addiction...in her madness....
has it been in any way proven to haunted, i mean i am in the area till like monday and wished to pay a visit because i had heard there are spirits that MAY be present there, but i havent been able to get much info on its paranormal history, and everyone i ask about it locally wont admit its haunted.
@BlackRoseOfWar the 4th floor is where the most violent criminals and sex offenders are kept -they cannot be rehabilitated and will never again see freedom--its pretty scary to stand outside looking up at them lookinmg back at you.
That halloween my friends and I stuck our way into the 'cemetery', we all got really neaseated when we found it and the smell was awful (but there may have been a dead deer near) To my knowledge there has NEVER been any reports of anything paranormal
@JennaTulls40 Thank you for this story! It's the most helpful piece of information my group has so far! Do you know of anyone seeing any ghosts or feeling the presence of ghosts? Maybe something along those lines.
