On this week's Offbeat, we continue our series on asylums. The Trans Allegheny Lunatic Asylum (formerly the Weston State Hospital) was a psychiatric hospital that opened in 1864. It was in operation until 1994.

The hospital has a unique history through the Civil War and became a participant of the West Virginia Lobotomy Project. It's dark history has become a hot bed of paranormal activity over the years being featured on multiple ghost shows.
