Welcome to the St. Matilda Institution

The St. Matilda Institution and Rehabilitation Hospital is a state of the art mental health facility located in picturesque North-Eastern Vermont. The Facility has been owned and operated by leading medical and psychiatric research and production company, Crane Pharmaceutical, since the early 1930s, and has been in operation as a mental health facility since its inception in 1888. The Institute is located on a sprawling expanse of land in a quaint and relaxing wooded valley, with emphasis on a quiet location to better aid our patients in their rehabilitation from mental ailments.

"Owned and operated by Crane Pharmaceutical, St. Matilda's isn't exactly a walk in the park. Since the facility's purchase in the 1930s, rumours abound about what exactly goes on behind the looming brick walls. Anything from drug testing, to shock therapy and isolation. One thing is for certain: Many people go in, and not many come back out again.

Crane Pharmaceutical is a less than completely reputable company. What goes on behind facility walls is strictly controlled and contained from the outside world. From drugs testing to trying out new psychiatric therapies, Crane facilities are less of a safe haven, and more of a personal hell for those unlucky enough to find themselves as patients."

The main building itself is comprised of three main 'wings' as well as a number of additional buildings nestled into the secluded grounds. The facility is high security, fenced in on all sides and regularly patrolled. The main building houses St. Matilda's high-risk patients, offering only the side yard and the courtyard as outdoors hang-out spots, unless grounds privileges are earned. Patients are not permitted to leave the main building or these yards without a member of staff or express permission.
