The Seaside Sanatorium in Waterford, CT, is rumored to be haunted by the spirits of young tuberculosis patients, with paranormal investigators reporting electronic voice phenomena (EVP) and mysterious orbs. Ghost hunters touring the grounds have also claimed to record ghostly voices. The building, once a home for the elderly and a center for the mentally disabled, is now abandoned and deteriorating, adding to its spooky atmosphere despite being a beautiful property. Many believe the sanatorium is haunted by the spirits of children who were treated for tuberculosis. Paranormal investigators have reportedly captured EVP during their investigations at the site. The presence of orbs in photos is another phenomenon reported by paranormal investigators at the sanatorium. Opened in the 1930s as a tuberculosis hospital for children, it later served as a home for the elderly and a treatment center for people with developmental disabilities until its decommissioning in the 1990s. The property has been subject to vandalism and neglect, with broken windows and graffiti contributing to its eerie appearance. Visitors and ghost hunters often describe an eerie feeling associated with the abandoned buildings. Reports of patient abuse and unexplained deaths became public when the facility was a center for the mentally disabled, adding to the site's dark history and legends.
