The Asylum Is a Gothic Exaggeration

The asylum was Charles Dexter Awards home from February 2016 until he vanished without a trace from his room the following March. The warden won't speak to me and neither will anyone else who works there. I can give you a sense of what this place looks like from the outside though. It's a big old gothic stone pile. Bars on the windows, huge oak front door set into a stone arch. If you've ever seen a movie Shutter Island or if you're a fan of the Batman comics and you can picture Arkham Asylum. We think of those things as being kind of gothic exaggerations of reality but let me disabuse you of that notion.
