Like finding the Titanic in the backwoods of Kentucky, in AWE!!!
Awesome extra DVD features, touching Interviews and insight on Waverly HIlls.
It kind of freaked me out all that vile stuff thrown in the woods. If you love creepy things, this it it. Well Produced

When I saw this on the sci-fi channle a few months back, I didn't think I was going to be interested. I have heard about the Waverly Hills Sanatorium by watching it in MTV's Fear, Scariest places on earth and on Ghost Hunters. Let me tell you, this is way better than any of the other shows/documentatries I have seen. I highly recommend this to any paranormal fan, this was an excellent documentary that should not be missed out.

My favorite show is Ghosthunters. I thought this would be like that, but it is so much more exciting and creepy. They way they go into the history of the place really makes you feel for the patients of the hospital. You can really get a feel for why the place is so dang haunted.

The ghost evidence is not "this is a ghost", it is more like, "this is what was found". They show you what it seems to be but let you make your own decision. The ghost voice stuff was creepy! That kid voice almost made me cry. Especially when they show you the old movies with kids in the hospital.

This is an amazing dvd. Creepy, sad and mostly disturbing.

I really enjoyed watching this dvd because it focused more on the the true facts of Waverly Hills. Some of the previous patients and employees were interviewed and actual pictures that I have never seen on any of the Waverly Hills website were also included. Although there was some poorly taken ghost photography and EVPs that were barely audible included which by all means proved no haunting. I am not saying that Waverly Hills in not haunted but if you really want to believe it is see the episode of Ghost Hunters that made me more of a believer.
It is to bad that no one can make a dvd about Waverly Hills which has so much history and just leave the ghost stories out.

I give this documentary four stars for the history alone! It was fascinating and very sad. It definitely held my attention all the way through, and allowed me to see more of Waverly Hills then I ever had before. The short part about Woodhaven was interesting and the things the women, who supposedly was a nurse there, said were horribly sad. However a man who claims to have worked at Woodhavn, says the rumors of such paitent abuse were untrue. This is something I hope will be more researched in the future. I must say I was disappointed in the ghost part of the movie. I agree with who ever said this was more of a historical documentary. The Evps were pretty good but the pictures weren't that impressive. I was completely unimpressed with all the orb pictures. Most of them were obivously due to the moisture and dust in and around the building. After all many shots showed water standing in the hallways. The wet foot print's were weird but would be easy to fake. For this being called the scariest place ever I expected better footage. But if you want to learn about the hisotry of the place or are interested in it at all this Dvd is well worth your time and money. If you don't start it hoping for ghosts you won't be disappointed!

The history of the Waverly Hills Sanitorium is facinating is this documentary, but the ghostly pictures and evidence are blurry (as always) and they seem to be desperatly searching for anything that might make a goosebump. Not bad if your into paranormal, just a little too dramasized.

I was really expecting a good documentary. But it seemed like the film makers (and I use that term loosely) just went to a scary, sad TB sanitorium and filmed themselves being scared. There was little historical research, and what was presented was repetitious and disappointing. This place would be a wonderful "haunting opporutunity" for someone that wanted to take the time to research the history and present it as a true documentary. Instead it comes off looking like a teenage home movie with little substance. Yes, the location is creepy, but the video is amaturist at best. Save your money. If I could, I would give a negative star.

This has to be the most dissapointing DVD purchase of my life. I thought I was getting something genuinely scare that offered real compelling evidence of supernatural activity but instead it was the same old fuzzy orbs, evp that sounds like nothing till a suggestion is put into your head and the odd shadowy figure that again looks like nothung until cropped sharpened and a caption is inserted to suggest what it is. Unbelievable clap trap. I have no doubt that the sanitorium itself is an opressive and scary place to visit but this DVD conveys nothing of that and comes across as less scary than a bad episode of Most Haunted. Big big let-down

I was really disappointed in this video. Very cheesy. I was hoping for a video that was not so staged in many places. And some of the photos shown do not seem to be from Waverly Hills, but just shown for the scarry effect. The music and the filming seem very contrived, just to make is seem spookery than it really is. All in all it seems like a lot of Hollywood filming in Kentucky.

I didn't HATE this movie/documentary. It was just not well thought out when filming. Editing and interviews were hodge-podge and not very interesting. No real narrator to guide you along. Didn't really "go" anywhere. It was just "here's some information, here's some more, here's some more." It didn't suck - but it wasn't jaw dropping either. More sad, depressing, unfortunate... I wish there were more stories about hauntings and happenings, than what went on there when it was an in-use facility.

Does have some cool photos, but right when you think it's about to get interesting, it'd cut to some former patient saying "No - I never saw that. Never knew that." Total buzz kill..
