The Waverly Hills Sanatorium is located in Louisville/Jefferson County, Ketucky. Opening in 1910, it took care of TB patients. The hospital closed in June 1961 because the antibiotic, streptomycin, which was introduced in 1943, cured many of the intended patients.
The building was reopened in 1962 as Woodhaven Geriatric Center, which was a nursing home. It was closed in 1982 by the state due to allegations of patient neglect.
In 2001, the Mattinglys bought the house. They hold tours and host a haunted house each Halloween with proceeds going to the restoration of the building.
