Haibara Infirmary
| ||||||||||||||||
Haibara Infirmary is a hospital located on Rogetsu Isle. It is one of the main locations in Fatal Frame IV, and was featured in promotional material before the game's release.
The hospital was built by the Haibara Family to study and treat Moonlight Syndrome, using a combination of modern medicine and traditional spiritual remedies. Attached to the hospital by a connecting corridor was Rogetsu Hall, a more luxurious sanatorium, and both buildings were staffed by the same personnel. In the 1970s the hospital was managed by Shigeto Haibara, who used his role to carry out illegal experiments on patients, usually in secret rooms. Medical records were burned in the incinerator in the backyard.[1]
The hospital's basement was extensive, and in places intersected with the ancient tunnel system that honeycombed the island.[2] In the backyard, at the end of a long path, there is a grave mound behind a row of torii gates. A photograph of this place can also be seen in Room 412 of Rogetsu Hall. At the front of the hospital, a dry well-shaft allows the moon to shine down into the Moonbeam Well. After the Rogetsu Kagura, Shoji Katagiri heard voices coming from the well and guessed they belonged to the five kidnapped girls.
Shigeto Haibara's wife committed suicide by jumping from the roof. Her son Yo Haibara also went to the roof on the Day of Tranquility to await death, and there he killed and was killed by Choshiro Kirishima.
The player explores the hospital during Choshiro Kirishima and Misaki Asou's chapters.
