Ep 2. Waverly Hills Sanatorium

Waverly Hills Sanatorium, located in Louisville, Kentucky, is the focus of Most Haunted season 12 episode 2. The sanatorium, which opened in 1926 and operated until 1961, was designed to house tuberculosis patients. It is believed that over 63,000 people died at the facility during its years of operation, leading to rumors of paranormal activity.

The episode begins with the Most Haunted team entering the abandoned facility, which is now a popular site for ghost hunters and thrill-seekers. Yvette Fielding, the host of the show, explains the history of the sanatorium and shares some of the reported sightings and experiences of former visitors. The team starts their investigation in the mortuary department, where they immediately sense a strong presence.

As the investigation progresses, the team uses a variety of tools to communicate with any spirits that may be present. They use electronic voice phenomenon (EVP) recorders to capture any sounds or voices that are not audible to the human ear. They also use thermal imaging cameras to detect any temperature fluctuations and night-vision cameras to capture any visual evidence.

Throughout the episode, the team experiences several unexplained occurrences, including strange noises and shadows. One particularly eerie moment occurs when one of the team members hears a voice saying "get out" through their EVP recorder. As they explore further, they encounter a room where a nurse is believed to have committed suicide by hanging herself. While investigating this area, they hear a loud banging noise that they cannot explain.

The investigation continues into the early morning hours, with the team exploring the upper floors of the sanatorium. They enter a room where a patient is believed to have died, and the atmosphere becomes charged with energy. One of the team members reports feeling a sudden coldness and begins to feel an overwhelming sense of sadness.

As the investigation comes to a close, the team reflects on their experiences and attempts to make sense of the unexplained events they encountered. They analyze the various data they collected, including audio recordings and footage captured by their cameras. While they do not definitively conclude that there are spirits present at the sanatorium, they acknowledge that the facility has a powerful psychic energy that may be attracting paranormal activity.

Overall, the episode provides an intriguing look into the history and alleged hauntings of the Waverly Hills Sanatorium. The Most Haunted team's investigation is thorough, and they use a variety of tools to try to capture any evidence of paranormal activity. While there are no major scares or jump scares, the atmosphere is tense throughout the episode, and viewers are left to draw their own conclusions about the unexplained occurrences the team encounters.
