One of the most paranormally active sites in the United States, Wolfe Manor is a former sanatorium with a long history of death.
The historic Wolfe Manor, later known as Clovis Avenue Sanitarium, was built as a private residence in 1922. In 1935 it became the Hazelwood Sanitarium for treating those with terminal illnesses such as tuberculosis. In 1942 it became Clovis Avenue Sanitarium, treating those with mental illness, and there, reports say, conditions were terribly bad. It closed down shortly thereafter. Around 2000, the site was purchased reportedly to make a Halloween attraction, but the obvious presence of something eerie in the house was a bit of a hindrance. The site has been investigated by paranormal groups and TV shows, which have captured ghostly voices, footsteps, and photographs of the activity. It is said to be open by appointment for tours, and has been featured on TV’s Ghost Hunters.
Former employees reported that there was at least one or more deaths a day for fifty years.
Now, it is a historical site for paranormal researcher and the curious traveler alike.

Local Guy Ghost Story: It was common knowledge that the Clovis Police 911 system would receive 911 calls from this address even after this place was abandoned for years. During this time period, this site had no electricity, no phone service and the phone wires had been ripped from the walls and the copper scavenged by vandals. An official investigation was conducted by local phone and PG &E Companies into the 911 calls coming from this site and the final conclusion was determined as "911 system errors". There is no possible way those calls came from this location"
It has been torn down! The lot is for sale though.
