The Insane Asylum was operational from 1870 to 1925. Now  it’s just a run down building with peeling paint, filthy carpet and animal feces everywhere.Paranormal investigators were invited to give the place a good once over to see if they could come up with anything.

The moment a digital voice recorder was turned on a to their amazement, ”it picked up a voice”.

Go down the voice said.They grabbed their equipment and headed for the basement .This is when it gets interesting.Batteries were being sapped of power,a camera suddenly goes dead .It’s the return trip to the basement just before getting ready to leave when the freak show begins.

In 1870, Salem County constructed a county insane asylum on what is now Route 45 in Mannington Township, to address a lack of state action to address overcrowding in state-run facilities.

Known as The County Farm, the county almshouse and asylum were located adjacent to each other and housed the county’s “insane” until 1925 when the residents were then moved to the state facility, making room for area’s poor residents to move in.

Later, the building was used by groups and clubs for a few years before being abandoned and boarded up, which is how it has remained for nearly seven years.

However, after a recent paranormal investigation at the asylum with Jersey Unique Minds Paranormal Society, it seems some of those who spent time in this three-story Italiante cube building never actually left.
