Sigma Nu Lambda Iota Chapter 239 Here is the Legend of the Haunted Hospital!!!!! enjoy The Haunted Hospital served originally as a psychiatry ward for the state. According to building plans, the cells in which patients were kept in can still be found in the deepest parts of the basement. After a security incident that claimed the lives of several hospital patients and workers, the building was renovated and converted into a hospital. The ground-level floor of the hospital functioned successfully without incident for many years. Aside from the occasional troop of engineers, the basement was left untouched and no major incidents occurred for quite some time. But with Cedar City’s population growing consistently, the hospital was forced to make room wherever possible. The building’s history was all but forgotten at this point in time and so hospital officials decided the most obvious and cheapest way to expand would be to use the currently unoccupied basement. Several departments within the hospital were forced to move down to the basement, and within the month, hospital official began receiving reports from basement staff about strange incidents occurring. Officials ignored these reports, considering them nothing more then fabricated reasons motivated by the unpopular department move to the basement. But it was not long until the first, of what would be a string of accidents, occurred. Jack Flagans, known to fellow employees as “Flannel Jack,” a hospital maintenance engineer who was very upset when he was forced to move his office down to the hospital basement, responded to a maintenance call made by another department in the basement. Reports of what happened are sketchy and police records on the matter have been sealed, but the hospital employee who made the call to police reported later to the city newspaper that he heard screaming and found Mr. Flagans crushed to death. He said that when he entered the room, the walls were running with blood and Mr. Flagans lay in the middle of the floor dead, “his whole body looked completely crushed and destroyed, but nothing was on top of him, there was nothing in the room that could have hit him like that… nothing at all… it was the worsted thing I have ever seen.” Officials later reported that Mr. Flagans had been accidentally killed by a fallen pipe. When asked about the blood running from the walls, officials said that the area Mr. Flagans died in was located directly below the surgery room and that a pipe leak had allowed some blood to drip down to the basement floor. Regardless of the reasons given for the death of Mr. Flagans, hospital employees refused to remain in the basement. Officials had no choice but to allow an overflowing ground-level floor to function as the entirety of the hospital. But it would seem that Mr. Flagan’s death served as the catalyst for what would be the worsted string of “accidental” deaths any state run facility has ever had. Though the basement floor was completely sealed off and no staff ever broached the area again, accidents started occurring on the top floor just a few short days after Mr. Flagan’s death. It started first with patients who were considered to be in stable condition dying overnight. Following this, hospital visitors and employees alike began suffering non-fatal accidents. Reports came in that sightings of strange transparent entities could be seen constantly throughout the night roaming the halls. Screams thought at first to be from patients, were later tracked down to rooms that were empty. The hospital was forced to hire on nearly a half dozen maintenance workers as building functions kept failing. It was not long before minor accidents, suffered by hospital inhabitants, became major accidents that resulted in serious injury and even deaths. This continued for nearly a year before officials decided to make a sudden move to another building. Nearly everything in the old building was abandoned and the building itself was locked down and would remain locked down for several years. Then last year a group of Southern Utah University students reopened the building and ventured forth carefully with the purpose of bringing truth to the tales that had spread throughout the community following the sudden close of the hospital. This organization of students was united under a fraternal brotherhood known as Sigma Nu. Sigma Nu consisted mainly of members from out of state, who come here to advance academically at Southern Utah University. Having caught wind of some of the rumors about the hospital, the men of the organization decided to enter the building and pursue its mysteries with the goal of conducting tours as a means to raise money for their philanthropy project. The organization was only able to broach a single wing of the hospital because of both physical blockade and fear brought on by strange incidents that seemed to occur whenever they went near those older wings of the hospital. This year it is the goal of the men of Sigma Nu to not only branch other aspects of the building, but to open the basement itself. Though the organization assumes no liability for what may occur to those who enter, it does promise an experience of a lifetime to those who are able leave.
