35. The Brattleboro Retreat Tower: Legends of the Asylum Watchtower

It was built as a place of peace—an escape into nature for the patients of a Victorian-era asylum. But today, the Brattleboro Retreat Tower is sealed shut, fenced off, and whispered about in the same breath as ghost stories and local tragedy. What happened inside? And why does this lonely tower on the hill continue to unsettle the town below? In this episode, we explore the real history, the legends, and the line between therapeutic architecture and something more chilling.
