Asylum / Hospital Extreme Activity

History & Paranormal Activity

A county home for the poor, mentally ill, and criminal from 1850 to 2010. The building is one of Iowa's most active paranormal sites — investigators document a demonic entity known as 'the Joker' that has scratched and slapped visitors, full-body apparitions throughout the wards, and a collection of EVPs that consistently respond coherently to questions.

🔒 Classified Field Investigation Notes

The Joker entity is consistently described by independent investigators as a male figure with an elongated face and abnormally long fingers — a description that matches a patient sketch made by a staff member in 1931 that was found in a sealed administrative drawer.
