Barbarism in early mental health treatment

Electroshock Therapy
Before modern understandings of mental illness, psychiatric medicine could be brutal. One of the most infamous treatments was electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), originally called electroshock therapy.
Introduced in the 1930s, ECT deliberately sends a controlled electrical current through the brain to trigger a seizure. Early treatments were performed without modern anesthesia or muscle relaxants, meaning patients could experience violent muscle contractions, injuries, confusion, and intense fear. Often being forced against their will.
The treatment was used for severe depression, psychosis, catatonia, and other psychiatric conditions. Some patients improved, but others experienced memory loss, disorientation, headaches, and other complications.
The popular image of someone being strapped to a table while electricity courses through their body comes largely from the early era of ECT. Modernly, patients are typically placed under general anesthesia and given medication to reduce muscle contractions, with careful monitoring of their heart and brain activity.
Yet the history remains unsettling. The fact that the treatment is still a treatment is alarming.
For people who experienced the earliest forms of electroshock, psychiatric treatment could mean waking up confused, frightened, and unable to remember what had happened.
A treatment designed to change the mind began with something that looked almost indistinguishable from torture.

Lobotomy treatment

Before modern psychiatric medications, doctors sometimes used one of the most disturbing procedures in medical history: the lobotomy.
Developed in the 1930s, the procedure involved deliberately destroying or severing connections between the brain's frontal lobes and deeper brain structures. Doctors believed this could reduce severe mental illness, aggression, obsessive behavior, and agitation.
Physician Walter Freeman later popularized the infamous transorbital lobotomy, in which an instrument was inserted through the eye socket and into the brain. Some procedures took only minutes.
But the consequences could last a lifetime.
Patients could experience: Personality changes, memory and cognitive problems, emotional numbness, loss of motivation, impulsivity and poor judgment, incontinence or seizures, loss of independence, severe neurological damage, and sometimes death.
One of the most famous cases was Rosemary Kennedy, sister of John F. Kennedy. She underwent a lobotomy in 1941 at age 23. The procedure left her profoundly disabled, and she required institutional care for the rest of her life.
Perhaps the darkest part of lobotomy history is that it became widely accepted for decades. Thousands of people underwent the procedure, including vulnerable patients and even children.
As psychiatric medications developed, lobotomies gradually disappeared.
Today, they remain a chilling reminder that altering the brain means potentially altering the person themselves.

Today we have modern advancements in medical treatment. But at what cost? This is the most haunting question to me. How many suffered in human trial and error before we concluded these advancements today?

Which shall I talk About first? Major updates, experience, and realizations since I last spoke about these two topics quite a few years ago. With more experience and understanding, it could be cool to explore.

Victorian post Mortem photos

Victorian Post-Mortem Photography
In the Victorian era, death was not always hidden away. When a loved one died, families sometimes commissioned a final photograph, carefully arranging the deceased as though they were still alive.
Eyes might be painted onto closed eyelids. Bodies were posed in chairs, beds, or alongside surviving relatives. Flowers, jewelry, and other personal objects were sometimes included.
To modern eyes, these photographs can feel deeply unsettling. But to Victorian families, they were often treasured as the last physical image of someone they loved, especially when photographs of the living were still a luxury.
A portrait meant to preserve a face forever… taken after the person had already left the world.
I think this practice is beautiful even if dark.

THE HAUNTED EASTERN STATE PENITENTIARY

Deep in Philadelphia stands a place that looks less like a prison and more like a creepy fortress built to keep the dead in. Eastern State Penitentiary opened in 1829 and became one of the world's first true penitentiaries, built around a radical idea at the time that prisoners would be isolated in individual cells so they could reflect, repent, and become better people. Instead, the prison became infamous for extreme isolation, suffering, illness, and psychological torment. It finally closed in 1971 thank the Gods.
A place like this is bound to be haunted. There are many stories about the insidious spirits left behind after the doors closed for good. Forgotten, lost, and tormented sould are said to roam these cell blocks and halls.
Cellblock 12 has become one of the prison's most notorious paranormal hotspots. Visitors and staff have reported hearing whispers, footsteps, voices, wailing, and even unexplained cackling laughter echoing through supposedly empty corridors.
Cellblock 6 has a reputation for shadow figures. People have described dark shapes moving quickly along the walls, only to disappear when they turned to look.
Cellblock 4 has one of the strangest stories. In the early 1990s, a locksmith working on an old cell lock reportedly experienced an overwhelming force that left him unable to move. He later described seeing distorted, tormented faces appearing on the walls, followed by a dark figure approaching him.
Then there's the phantom guard. Reports tell of a dark silhouette appearing high in one of the prison's guard towers, watching over the abandoned penitentiary before mysteriously disappearing.
And perhaps the creepiest story involves Al Capone. Capone spent eight months at Eastern State in 1929. According to the legend, he claimed he was being tormented by the spirit of James Clark, a victim of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre. Whether paranormal encounter or something with a much more earthly explanation, the story became part of the mythology surrounding his cell.
The prison itself acknowledges that people have reported strange experiences there dating back to the 1940s, but the historic site does not claim that the building is actually haunted which, is odd to me with as many witness stories there are.
Thousands of people have walked those corridors. Some heard voices. Some saw shadows. Some felt watched. And some experienced absolutely nothing.
So what do you think?
Is Eastern State Penitentiary haunted by the people who suffered behind those walls?
or does the atmosphere of the place simply get inside your head?
I believe it is definitely haunted!
