I've spent a lot of time over the last week thinking about all of that and why someone would do all of that.  It doesn't seem to match Tick Tock's M.O. Of course, that doesn't mean anything.

The land had long carried a reputation for strange sounds at dusk and heavy fog that seemed to roll in without warning. Despite the rumors, philanthropist and physician Dr. Alistair Veilwood purchased the property with a vision rooted in progressive mental health reform. In the late 19th century, mental institutions were often overcrowded and harsh.
