Overview

Embark on a chilling and fascinating audio journey through the history of Historic Agnews State Hospital. Step back in time from the perimeter and uncover the twisted past of this once-sprawling institution, rumored to have been home to restless spirits and dark secrets.

While the original structures have largely been demolished or redeveloped—and the grounds now serve as a corporate campus for tech giant Oracle (formerly home to Sun Microsystems)—our app brings its forgotten legacy vividly to life. Stand outside the perimeter and listen to spine-tingling tales of the patients who once called this place home, exploring the perimeter of a site shaped by tragedy, transformation, and Silicon Valley history.

Your Self-Guided Audio Experience

Completely Tailored to You: Enjoy the freedom of a tour designed entirely around your pace without crowds or rigid schedules.
