"Dedicated to the treatment of Rochester's children, Eastman Dental [Dispensary] quickly became the top U.S. training school and a model for clinics everywhere. Countless children got their first care at this revolutionary facility. The immediate experience was painful. Anesthesia was primitive, and the teeth have a lot of nerves. Pain, blood and howling would have been common at this place bent on saving people from even worse."

"Two local ghost hunting outfits were brought in that season. They found activity, as they always seem to, in big, creepy buildings. They may have taped EVPs (electronic voice phenomena) and photographed orbs, which they also reported seeing. Both squads endured strange electrical breakdowns, including fresh camera and flashlight batteries that died in one hall and worked again soon after elsewhere. Psychics refused to enter some areas of the dispensary and reported their hands being pulled, as if by invisible children."

"This is one of the few sites or incidents in our book "Validated" by investigation."
