Once a bustling epicenter of medical progress and innovation, this esteemed facility now lies shuttered and dormant. Slowly being reclaimed by the land, Crow Hollow's old hospital now stands as a shell shrouded in secrecy and speculation.
The facility was on the verge of a breakthrough, developing cures for countless infections and disorders. Before they could reach the end of their research, hospital staff announced unexpected exposure risks to the surrounding sleepy town. This appeared to be more than a virus; it was a new contagion that seemed to defy explanation and was spreading rapidly from patient to staff. Hospital representatives cited the risks and symptoms, including hallucinations, unprovoked aggression, and accelerated breakdowns and decompositions of tissue. Infected patients seemed to be rotting while they were still alive, dissociative, but unpredictable.
To risk further exposure, the facility was quickly shuttered.
Dozens of hospital staff members seemed to disappear with it, sparking rumors that this infection, parasite, or contagion was more dangerous than they let on. The location is considered a live biohazard and is quarantined to this day, decades after the outbreak.
Yet somehow, there seems to be some form of life inside.
Maybe it's just the darker corners of your imagination—or maybe the infected never really left.
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
