St. Albans Sanatorium in Radford, Virginia is reputed to be one of the most haunted sites on the East Coast, and for good reason: the very soil it rests on has a grim and horrific history.

Once occupied by several indigenous tribes before European settlers moved in, the ground was soaked with blood in the "Draper's Meadow Massacre" of 1775, and bore witness to brutal Civil War battles a century later.
The horrors apparently didn't end when the St. Albans Boys School was built on the site in 1892, as suggested by stories of multiple student suicides -- though none of those were officially recorded.

In 1916, St. Albans was converted to a hospital for the mentally ill, overseen by Doctor J.C. King. While the Sanatorium was known for its modern and revolutionary treatment techniques, some of the experimental procedures -- including early shock and water therapies -- proved fatal for some patients. There were also several more suicides in the hospital, and this time they were properly documented by Dr. King and others.

Even long after the hospital closed its doors, the horrors continued: the murder of Gina Renee Hall occurred near the hospital grounds in 1980.
