The hospital where brain treatment is done looks quite scary. People themselves call such hospitals not hospitals of the mind but hospitals of the mad. There is a hundred year old mental hospital in Scotland which is really very scary. The people around consider it no less than a haunted place. The surprising thing is that it has been closed for only 20 years, yet people are afraid to go here alone.
This hospital is in the village of Bangor, west of Dechmont in West Lothian, Scotland. It is said to be a hospital more than a century old. This psychiatric hospital was opened in 1906 and was part of the Edinburgh War Hospital during the First World War, which later became a psychiatric hospital only.
The hospital was officially closed in 2004 when its last patients were sent away. The reason for its closure was that at the end of the 20th century, the methods of mental treatment throughout the UK were changed in such a way that this hospital was no longer capable of providing psychiatry.

This did not happen only with this hospital, but many hospitals in the UK were closed in the 1990s and 2000s. But this hospital in Scotland became special. It was first used for shooting a film in 2005. Incidentally, this film was also a psychological thriller, its name was The Jacket.
After this, in 2009, it was used by the Scottish Government for counter terrorist exercises. In this, the government had examined the procedures that should be followed in case of a nuclear explosion.
When pictures of this hospital were shared on social media, people’s attention was drawn to this hospital. Actually, it has been 20 years since it was closed. But when you go here, it feels like time has stopped in the hospital. Everything here is lying as it was left on the last day. Because of this this hospital looks very scary and scary. Many stories have been made about this that it is a haunt of ghosts.
