The asylum on the island was poorly constucted in late 1800s, the asylum was more of a place for an exile rather than rehabilitation for the mental patients. In 1930s there was a rumor that the doctor performed a bizzare experiments on the patient then the doctor went mad and threw himself from the asylum's tall bell tower.

There was also attempted restoration of the hospital building on that island by Italian construction crews but does not finish without any explanation, leaving the local wondering and thinking that an evil force was stopping the effort to restore the building.
