The Rolling Hills Asylum one of the most haunted and scariest buildings in the world and is located in East Bethany, which is in New York. In its later years this building was used as a mall and also a museum.
It first opened its doors in 1827 in response to a New York state legislation requiring all counties to assume duties of taking care of individuals unable to care for themselves.
The Rolling Hills Asylum was originally, a carriage house and tavern which serviced stage coaches and stood there from 1790 until December 1826,
When it was sold to Genesee County. The carriage house still stands on the property today. The tavern serviced travelers from Batavia, New York to Warsaw, New York traveling along what is now known as US Route 20. At that point, the facility took in paupers, unwed mothers, the insane, and orphans so its no surprise that this building is a host to many different spirits.
By the early 1950s, the facility served only as a nursing home, where it was then closed by 1972, stepping aside for a new facility in Batavia, New York.
The rolling hills asylum had stood empty until 1992, when it was re-opened as Carriage Village, a mall of unique shops. Since then it has been transformed into a paranormal investigation hot spot for ghost hunters and has been operating public and private ghost hunting tours, paranormal investigations, historical tours and even special events.
