The Night Eloise Disappeared from Asylum—and Never Got Found Again
An Unsolved Mystery That Haunts Local Folklore In the quiet shadows of history, one name lingers in whispers: Eloise. The night she vanished from the old Ravenswood Asylum remains one of the most disturbing unsolved cases in the town’s past—an enigma wrapped in secrecy, silence, and silence no one ever broke. ### The Disappearance That Shocked a Town On a fog-laden evening in late October 1973, Eloise Carter, a 28-year-old patient at Ravenswood State Asylum, disappeared without a trace. Authorized transfers into the institution had been documented, but Eloise was never seen again. Her cell remained untouched, her personal effects undisturbed—a stark contradiction to the asylum’s strict protocols. No signs of struggle, no messages, no final farewell. Just absence.
