History
In the 1930's, a state asylum was built in the town of Springwood, Ohio. It served as the home of a 100 mentally ill men. In 1941, a religious sisterhood of nuns maintained the asylum. One of the nuns, Amanda Krueger, was a volunteer. During Christmas in the same year, the employees were rushing to get home to their families. They forgot about Amanda and she was accidentally left in the asylum. For the next few days, she was beaten and brutally raped by the 100 inmates. Eventually, Amanda was found by the employees. She was barely alive but also pregnant.

Nine months later in 1942, Amanda gave birth to a boy. He was named Frederick Charles Krueger and was the culmination of all 100 inmates from the asylum. Eventually, the asylum was permanently closed. The inmates' fate is unknown.
