Psycho Asylum and Slaughterhouse
San Antonio’s Psycho Asylum and Slaughterhouse opens in October at 1201 E. Houston St.
Formerly known as the River City Asylum in the 1970s, the Psycho Asylum used to house the criminally insane, the sick and people who had infectious diseases.
Eight of the most dangerous patients at the asylum escaped in 1978; three were found in the boiler room. Another two patients were found dead a month later on the top floor of the building and a human shaped stain is still visible where one of the patients was found.
The remaining three patients' souls are believed by some to still be at the asylum.
