Yorktown may not have a huge population but where it lacks space and community, it's filled with spirits and ghosts. Yorktown is said to be home to one of the most haunted places in Texas. The Sun even dubbed it the most haunted place on Earth.

Back in 1951, the Felician Sisters of the Roman Catholic Church opened and operated the hospital. For the next 30 years, nearly 2,000 people died inside the hospital walls.

The hospital shut down in 1986 but functioned as a drug rehabilitation center until 1992. Since then, the building has been left to rot. However, many believe the building is still full of life, as spirits of the lives lost inside still roam the creepy corridors.
