Haunted Molly Stark Hospital

I was driving down old 62 ( Now Columbus road) near Alliance. I came across a sign on the side of the road that read Molly Stark Hospital. I have never heard of this hospital before. Thinking it might be a new hospital just built. I quickly turned around and went back. Turning into the drive I was met by a vast building that looked much like a mid evil castle. Pulling in front of the building. I stopped the car and got out. I could see the building better now. This was not a newer building but a much older one. Built in the 1930's (which I found out later). I went up to the main entrance which to my surprise was open. Stepping inside was like stepping back in time. It reminded me of the 40's but with a 70's twist. Above me was a massive glass chandelier. I looked down the halls and I could see beds and papers laying around but with a fine layer of dust on them. It looked like the employees just one day dropped everything and left. As I looked around I found the dark and very creepy basement. Which still contained files on the people who once came here for treatment. I read a handful several that date in the mid 1930's and had listed on the files the disease tuberculosis. I dropped the file and before it hit the floor I realized that I was standing in a 1930's tuberculosis Hospital. As I read the other files they confirmed my theory. Hundreds possibly thousand of people came to this hospital for treatment of tuberculosis. Sadly many would not survive. As I started back up th stairs I began to feel cold, incredibly cold. To the point of shaking. It stopped me in my tracks. I looked around and then ran up the remaining stairs. I went back to my car and left. I had to find out more on this hospital. So I researched it and found this out.

Molly Stark Hospital built in the 1930's by a Firestone. It was a tuberculosis sanatorium
later becoming a state hospital for the mentally ill and the aged. It closed in 1995. This is all I could find on the history of the place.But while I researched the hospital I found a lot of ghost stories from people who used to work there. They ranged from full body, to pushing,screaming, and scratching. I talked to a select few of my chat room ghost hunter buddies and most said they never heard of the place. But the people who have heard of it said it was a hot bed of paranormal activity.

I will never forget the Hospital it was the first place where I felt threatened. I hope to do I full investigation of the building. But to my surprise. The building is supposed to be closed and locked up. Police visit the area at night to make sure the no kids break into the building.

( This blog is combined with my brother's story when he went into the building and my research. This is a true story and the Hospital is real.)
