Rolling Hills Asylum in East Bethany, NY is an historical property that is authentically haunted! Originally opened in 1827 as The Genesee County Poor House, it became a safe haven for the mentally and physically disabled, war veterans, widows, orphans, drunkards, and more. In 1938 the county added a hospital to the facility – the Genesee County Infirmary, and in 1964 it converted the property to the Genesee County Nursing Home, or as the locals lovingly referred to it as “the old county home” until closing in 1974. Steeped in nearly 200 years of history, mystery and mayhem, today, Rolling Hills Asylum’s nearly 60,000 sq. ft. is reputed to be the most haunted asylum in the USA and has been featured in numerous films and television shows such as Syfy’s Ghost Hunters, Travel Channel’s Ghost Adventures, and Destination America’s Ghost Asylum. Come on out and enjoy an Historical or Flashlight tour, a public or private ghost hunt, horror movie night, celebrity event, or one of the dozens of other special events!

Date: 11-14-81From Dr. Phillip Blackman’s Personal Diary
November 14, 1981
I’m extremely frustrated with Bobby. No responses. No “life” in there, truly a disturbing case. Something has got to make him “feel” but I don’t know how far I can push him. He’s only nine or something, but he’s strong. I do think it’s quite humorous that the staff is afraid of this little boy. Even though he’s blind! To each his own. I think Dr. Blythe is planning some new techniques that should shake Bobby out of his silence. We’ll see. I don’t have much hope for any responses after last week’s failed attempts. It’s beginning to make Dr. Blythe angry. That’s humorous, too! It’s the on-hands experience that counts. His methods would never pass at Baylor… but I do admire his, shall we say… determination.P.B.
Brave Enough?
