Happy Volts Asylum are major antagonists in the 2006 video game Bully. They are a psychiatric hospital in Bullworth which performs electro-shock therapy on admitted patients. It is also seemingly a base for many rumors regarding werewolves and aliens.
Overview[]
Happy Volts is a "Home for the Mentally Unwell" that serves Bullworth's mentally ill population, which may include the Townies Otto Tyler, Leon, and Clint (also known as Henry), whom Jimmy assists in getting back to the asylum. Throughout the game, Johnny Vincent, the leader of the Greaser group, and Mr. Galloway, the English instructor, are admitted to the asylum but manage to escape with Jimmy's assistance. Additionally, there are rumors that Gary Smith was accepted into the facility.
Three blocks make up the building: A, B, and C. Patients with aggressive tendencies are housed in Block B. Initially, it would appear that just blocks A and B are accessible because only those two have the icon indicating that the door can be opened. It is possible to breach the C Block door, though, by using weapons, punches, or jumping against it. While C Block is dilapidated and in disrepair, Blocks A and B are still in operation. Inside C block is a mortuary, along with what look like surgical tables and an X-ray viewer showing x-rays of people who appear to have physical deformities. Jimmy might come across a locked door with the words EMPLOYEES ONLY and a green arrow beside it if he frequently goes to Block C. Jimmy is going to enter a fenced-in area if he enters this door. He will have to wait till two in the morning and won't be permitted to get back inside the building. Jimmy has another option: he can break through the wall and hit an orderly over the fence with a firearm. After that, he will be taken to the police station in Blue Skies Industrial Park. (Jimmy needs to be near the fence for the orderlies to notice him.)
Even though they can be heard screaming, there isn't a single patient seen in the cells during free roam. The Orderlies, dressed in white uniforms, patrol the facility, keeping an eye out for trespassers. The game's interior is the most interactive part of the whole thing. Jimmy can explore the asylum without being arrested for trespassing if he is dressed in the Black Ninja Outfit or the Orderly Uniform.
