Eloise Asylum: The History, the Humanity and the Haunts Paperback – September 23, 2021

I like to read scary stories without alot of fluff. This book was fun of them as well as some very interesting history. I finished it in one night and lent it to a friend.

Fun to read. Author does a great job of thoroughly covering the history humanities and haunts. Ingenious way to divide a book. Even the history section was interesting and I am NOT a history buff.

Good history of a hospital and the people that lived there. I feel could have been more indepth of lives in hospital and state run home for poor.

It's more of factual novel. No story.

This is an amazing book about the history of Eloise. My experience at Eloise on a tour is actually in this book called Stay! Such a well written book, thank you !!!!!!

I love this book! It’s so interesting and well-written.

The author does such an amazing job of bringing alive the history of the Eloise Assylum. I couldn't put this book down! I absolutely loved it!

Much can be said about this complex. I myself explored it as a teen. My friends and I were lucky enough to have been through the entire N building. That having been said, the reason for the 3 star rating is most of the information in this book is just repeated from Stanislas Keeton's History of Eloise and Alvin C. Clark's book on Eloise in which he heavily quoted Keeton as well. The only new information is the haunts section, which I did find very interesting, and can also agree that the 4th floor was creepy! So was the basement. My friends and I convinced a worker to give us a small tour while the Kay Beard building was operating as a homeless outreach center.
