The Spirits Still Within Stimson Hospital, Part One | Grave Talks CLASSIC

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! In 1870, a grand private mansion rose in Eaton Rapids, Michigan. Nearly fifty years later, that home took on a new identity when Harriet Chapman purchased it and transformed it into a hospital. Within its walls, more than 3,000 children were born. Yet, alongside the joy of life, there was also loss. Patients passed away, and eventually, so did the hospital’s very founders. Dr. Stimson, Dr. Blanchard, and Harriet Chapman all devoted their lives to the institution. But the end of their lives came tied to the very building they had helped create. Dr. Blanchard suffered a tragic fall down the hospital’s elevator shaft. Harriet Chapman and Dr. Stimson also never left the grounds in life—or, some believe, even in death. The stories tied to Stimson Hospital are layered. People have reported strange sounds echoing from the basement, objects shifting when no one is near, and voices with no source. Perhaps most unsettling are the accounts from children who grew up inside its walls. Many spoke of an “imaginary friend” they spent time with. Oddly enough, though separated by years, the children all named the same figure: Blanchard. Today, Chris Sturgill owns the property. His connection to the building isn’t just about bricks and mortar, but about preserving a story that refuses to be silenced. In this episode of The Grave Talks, Chris takes us inside the history, the lives lived and lost, and the lingering experiences that make Stimson Hospital unforgettable. This is Part One of our conversation with Chris Sturgill about the legacy and mysteries of Stimson Hospital. #StimsonHospital #EatonRapids #HospitalHistory #ParanormalExperiences #HistoricHospitals #MichiganHistory #UnexplainedStories #MedicalMystery #HauntedHistory #TheGraveTalks Love real ghost stories?
