The building does NOT provide conveniences such as air conditioning, heat, or indoor plumbing (we do provide very clean porta johns).  Everyone is welcome to visit RHA, although, it is encouraged that if you feel you may have challenges navigating the stairs, walking long distances, hearing or seeing, that you have someone scheduled to assist you on the tour or hunt so you may fully enjoy the history and beauty of the building

What To Do

  • Be courteous to fellow investigators
  • Be respectful of your surroundings
  • Be friendly and helpful to those around you - i.e. if someone is having difficulty or is unsure about a piece of equipment, etc. offer assistance.
  • Make certain your cell phone is OFF or on Airplane mode only - so as not to interfere with KII Meters and other equipment.
  • Listen to your RHA Guide. If they put restrictions on areas to investigate, ask you to keep up with the group, not to wander during the tour, etc. its usually because they have your safety and best interest in mind and want to expedite the tour in order to get you out on your own as quickly as possible.
  • Bring Cash for beverages, snacks, t-shirts and other items. Hot Coffee/Hot Tea are complimentary. Other beverages and snacks are $1 to $4, and include pre-packaged microwaveable meals. 
  • Keep food & beverages in designated area only.

What Not To Bring or Do

  • No Drinking of alcoholic beverages for at least 24 hrs prior to or during an investigation.
  • Do not come under the influence of Drugs
  • Never investigate alone  a) for safety sake - if someone were to fall, get sick, have a walk through or some unpleasant paranormal encounter, etc., there’s a buddy to help out  and b) if something extraordinary happens - there is someone to corroborate and support the incident.
  • Don't be grumpy or have a bad attitude.
  • Don't wander away from your group
  • Don't shout or make loud noises - as others may be conducting EVP sessions. 
  • Never remove anything from a location that doesn't belong to you
  • Do not cut, adhere, affix, or damage the property in anyway
  • No Littering - use appropriate trash receptacles
  • No slamming of doors, running, or shouting
  • Do not force open any doors or go into restricted areas

Final Words:

We are thrilled by all the interest in Rolling Hills Asylum and truly LOVE meeting the people who come to investigate or even just visit out of curiosity. However, please keep in mind this is private property and is owner occupied!

So please, be respectful and refrain from wandering about the property at whim. If you are driving by, feel free to take pictures from the front steps of the infirmary but please do not stroll about the property like it is a public park. Our dogs wander the property freely and you risk getting bit or worst. They are secured during hunts and tours but the rest of the time they are free to enjoy their land and property.

RHA is NOT public property it is private property and privately owned. We open it up to the public on select dates for people to enjoy and learn about the history and the spirits here. Be respectful. After all, we'd never pull up to your house, get out of the car, and begin strolling around your property, back, yard, barns or garages. It just isn't appropriate and it's trespassing. Using this analogy- if you were to advertise that you are having a yard sale on xyz dates and times, but strangers decided to show up on non-advertised dates & times and wander about your property, you'd feel violated. Same here.

Always check any locations website for details, rules and regulations - that way you will avoid problems with owners, authorities or the police.
