OM Backroads: Ep. 94: Ohio Mad Dog Killers

Hello and welcome to another episode of Ohio Mysteries Backroads.

Founded in 1898 on 240 acres of farmland donated to the state, Massillon State Hospital opened its doors under the name Eastern Ohio Mental Asylum. Its first patients came from 21 Ohio counties. 

At its peak in the 1950s, the hospital housed more than 3,100 patients and employed roughly 365 staff — part of what many regarded as one of “the most beautiful institutions in the world.” 

But as treatments and mental-health policies evolved, the massive institution began to shrink. By the mid-1970s many patients were transferred out, and over decades the facility gradually shifted identities — eventually becoming Heartland Behavioral Health Center. 

The origins: how farmland donated by early settlers became a state asylum.

Lives within the walls: personal stories, struggles, and survival in a sprawling mental-health institution.

The rise and fall: how peak expansion gave way to decline, changing mental-health philosophies, and shifting societal attitudes.

What remains today: the buildings, the memories, the legacy — and the efforts to preserve or repurpose pieces of its history.

Join us on a journey through time, memory, and healing. If you’re curious about mental-health history, local heritage, or the echoes of institutions long gone — this podcast is for you.

A few months later, mail from her children bounced back undeliverable, starting a 75-year-old search for the missing woman.

Ep. 101 - What happened to Mary Jane Vangilder?

Hello and welcome to another episode of Ohio Mysteries Backroads.

On November 23, 1963—while the nation was consumed by news of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination—a devastating fire quietly swept through the Golden Age Nursing Home in Fitchville, Ohio. In a matter of minutes, 63 residents, many unable to walk or call for help, lost their lives in one of the deadliest nursing home fires in U.S. history.

In this episode, we uncover the overlooked tragedy that was overshadowed by national mourning. Through historical records, survivor accounts, and expert insights, we explore how outdated building codes, inadequate staffing, and a lack of fire protections created the perfect storm. We also examine how this disaster became a turning point that transformed safety standards for care facilities across the country.

Join us as we shine a light on the forgotten victims, the systemic failures that doomed them, and the reforms their loss helped inspire.
