The Haunted Hospital covers almost the entire bmlding, with the exception of a few areas to maintain preservation of the structure, struc-ture, and takes about 30 minutes to complete. There is a running hospital hospi-tal theme throughout including includ-ing a mental ward and a trip to the very real crematorium in the basement. "But we try to stick to the traditional haunted house stuff as well," said Tuttle. "We have a Bram Stoker-esq area dedicated to vampires. The first murder in Lehi was by Wild Bill' Hickman, and we have a picture of him up in a maze which we lovingly call the Murder Maze. Most of us won't go through the maze alone because it's so creepy." Vincze and his team of spooksters have incorporated incorporat-ed Lehi history into the Haunted Hospital. Visitors are given a brief history lesson les-son at the beginning of the tour and several pictures of the building throughout the years can be found along the way. "It's more of a haunted housetour," said Vincze. "They get a little bit of history histo-ry too." Over 100 years old, the building has a lot of history to offer. It was originally built to be a bank and since then has housed a hospital, crematorium, apartments, storage units and an auto body shop; though most remember its days as a hospital. hos-pital. Despite its active past, the building has been vacant for more than 20 years, and because it's oh the National Historic Register it can't be torn down. "I would say that there were a few people who wanted want-ed to tear it down in the beginning until I bought it," said Vincze who enjoys working work-ing on old buildings. "I took all the stucco off the outside of the building and opened the archways up. Then people peo-ple started saying 'wow, it's actually a really nice building.' build-ing.' "Because it was a bank, they spent a lot of money on architecture back then. I like to preserve things. When I saw the pictures of this building in the history book I knew it could be something special." Lehi's Planning and Zon ing Commission has been wholly supportive. They unanimously approved the Haunted Hospital, because they want to see the building renovated too. Vincze plans to restore the building to look exactly as the original bank did. He then plans to open the building build-ing to be used as medical offices and already has several sev-eral doctors interested in setting set-ting up a practice there. Oh, and there's one more thing. "This place is really haunted," said Tuttle. "Everyone that's worked here more than a week can you tell you that they've heard noises or they've seen shadows moving around. YouH hear footsteps or voices when nobody's there. It's definitely def-initely a haunted building. A lot of us refuse to walk around alone in it." April Greenawalt and Courtney Ward, Lehi members mem-bers of the Utah Ghost Hunters Society, agree. With Vincze's permission, they conducted an investigation of the building before the Haunted Hospital was opened to the public. Armed only with a tape recorder and 35mm camera they walked the building taking pictures and record- Obituary Jinx Davis Tolman Jinx Davis Tolman, 72, Mesa, AZ, Orem, UT d longtime resident of lindon , : t a h :a s s e d ;-ay Sat-;rd Sat-;rd a y , ;:;ober 9, M.

Voices and images appeared on the tape and in the developed photographs photo-graphs that they didn't see or hear when they walked through the building. Several very faint but audible voices spoke on the tape. One said "get out," and another said "they think we're dead." "There were also a lot of profane things (on the tape,)" said Ward. "I'm sure there's something here that doesn't want us to be there. We also heard a lot of whispers around one of the volunteers. They spoke to him a lot. We asked if they (the ghosts) felt trapped here, and the answer we got was yes." When their pictures were developed several of them showed shadowy, human figures fig-ures and faces in windows and rooms that weren't there when they took the pictures. "This kid here has a hard time in there," said Greenawalt. "He says sometimes some-times he feels like he can't breathe."
