The Waverly Hills Sanatorium is an old sanatorium where tuberculosis patients were treated in the 1900s. This sanatorium was located outside of Louisville, Kentucky and stayed open for about 50 years. While the sanatorium was open there were some questionable ways of treating patients that occurred there. These days and in more modern times, the building has gained popularity as a ghost hunting spot.
