Plus, almost everyone connects hospitals with pain, illness, suffering, blood 
and sharp metal things being poked into you. Heh. Idea for a scenario: the 
PCs are contacted by someone who tells them about this hideous human abbatoir 
where people are experimented on, bled, cut open, and injected with chemicals 
by masked sadists. He begs them to help him save his wife from their 
clutches. He's going to raid the place and bring her out of there, but he 
needs their firepower+magick.
Turns out he's nuts and talking about the local hospital. Ideally, the PCs 
don't find this out until they're in the back of the lunatic's van when he 
drives through the front door of the hospital...
