BONUS: Old Lincoln County Hospital
Show Notes:
We’re baaaaaacccck. Celebrating our ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY of Historical Spooks by coming back from our festival hiatus with a drunk episode.
This Drunk Historical Spooks episode discussed the history of the Old Lincoln County Hospital in Fayetteville, Tennessee. Not only the hospital, but what was also there before the hospital opened. Now this abandoned hospital still has the spirits of those who lost a battle for their lives while under the constant care of the staff of this hospital.
What was previously a boys dormitory and part of a religious college, and then a bustling hospital, is now an abandoned shell of a building. The city has threatened to tear this building down, and the girls felt it was important to tell its story before that happens.
