Lakeshore Institute
 Just off of Lyon's View Drive there is an old building (not pictured). For years, horrible tales have circulated about it. This building was once known as Lakeshore Asylum, and was part of the larger Lakeshore Mental Health Facility. The building has long since been abandoned and separated from the Institute. It was here that many atrocities are said to have taken place.
There are many stories about what happened at this site, including abuse of patients. In the past, mental health facilities were not known for their humanitarianism. Apparently, Lakeshore Asylum is no exception. Huge rats ran about the area. There are many tales of sadistic workers beating and abusing patients. Reports say that this went on well into the 1960s, when the lake level was risen, cutting this building off from the rest of the facility. Many more tales have been told than this, including a legend that an evil entity exists there. During the 1970s, the building was used for Satanic rituals. Today, the "evil entity" is said to still reside there. It's also said that you can still hear the screams of patients as they were beaten, and chains and shackles being thrown around. It's as if all the pain and agony that occurred there still exists. There was an underground movie made about these events entitled Saint Lucifer's.
