Waverly Hills Sanatorium stands tall and intimidating on top of one of the highest hills overlooking Jefferson County, Kentucky. The Sanatorium opened its doors on July 26, 1910 and housed thousands of patients suffering from tuberculosis. Over many years at least 6,000 people died at Waverly Hills. Patients often suffered through agonising treatments during their time, including electroshock therapy and experimental surgeries that involved collapsing a lung.
The Nurse’s Station is, perhaps, the most notorious and frightening room of all. Supposedly people have jumped to their deaths from this room. Others have seen spectral images floating in the windows and heard disembodied voices say: “Get out!” In addition to hearing voices on this floor, witnesses have seen the full body apparition of a female nurse in white and have reported that room 502 gives them an “unsettling” feeling of great despair. This would be the most recognized haunted Sanatorium in the world.
