Asylums and sanitoriums of old often had to deal with absolutely scarily insane people. Violent, loud, manic and with medicine not being what it is these days, doctors and nurses didn't have the medicinal treatment to deal with these psychiatric patients.
So they used a darker, scarier style of treatment and that's what's pictured here...The tranquilizer chair.
Similar to devices used in Victorian times, this is one horrible way to treat the mentally ill.
A wooden commode with straps on arms and chest to lock the crazy person in. This chair also features a wooden box, to hide the head...Keeping the insane quiet, calm and not seeing what else is going on around them.
Just leave your patient there for a day, wallowing in their own filth, hungry and still...They'll soon calm down.
Set up your mad house and tell your stories with Mindshift furniture. Great for roleplay this chair features a seating pose.
Detailed and interesting this piece of asylum equipment is also transferrable, so send one to your local looney...
More furniture, decoration and gifts available at our mainstore...
