Visitors... At a former psychiatric hospital and funeral home in Detroit and Toledo, visitors can participate in guided paranormal investigations or even set out on their own with rented equipment. Justin Cox, founder of Michighost Paranormal, leads tours of the Eloise Asylum attraction’s upper floors, where patients were treated. The facility, which began as a 19th-century poorhouse and operated under various names, expanded into a complex with dozens of buildings by the late 1920s. Most of the complex's buildings were destroyed in the 1980s, but a five-story structure known as the Kay Beard Building still stands and is home to Eloise asylum. The former Urbanski Funeral Home, now known as Mortuary Manor, also serves as a funeral home museum and a funeral room museum.
