Is Asylum 49 Haunted?
In this episode, we dive into one of Utah’s most famously haunted places: Asylum 49, also known as the Old Tooele Hospital. It may be a haunted attraction today, but beneath the spooky props lies something far more real—and far more terrifying.
Once a private home turned poorhouse turned nursing facility, this building has seen its share of suffering… and some say the spirits never left.
In this episode, we explore five of the most compelling ghost stories from Asylum 49:
- Wes, a former Alzheimer’s patient still wandering the halls—accompanied by a dark, malevolent entity.
- The mysterious Man in Black, seen entering a locked room just before a patient’s death.
- Nurse Maria and the glowing spirit portal she warns the dying to avoid.
- Samuel F. Lee and his prankster son Thomas, who still roam their former home with unfinished business and playful energy.
- Jessica, the child spirit who followed a guest home—and made herself very real.
We also share firsthand accounts from investigators, volunteers, and locals who’ve had spine-tingling experiences inside and beyond the walls of this haunted hospital.
Listen now to uncover the secrets of Asylum 49—and decide for yourself: are these hauntings real?
