Asylum got off to a great start

9/10

"The first episode of asylum is great, it set up the characters theme settings well, the bloody face introduction is great, the first half of asylum is awesome but sadly fom me the second half let's it all down..."

💡 Did You Know?

The song "Dominique" that plays constantly in the common room was not chosen at random. Jeanine Deckers - also known as Soeur Sourire or "The Singing Nun" had recorded the song to raise money for her convent's mission in Brussels. She eventually left the order to be with her lover, a novice nun eleven years younger than herself. When the two took their own lives together in 1985 she was deeply in debt for the taxes owed on the over $100,000 in royalties the iconic song earned. Money she never saw a cent of, as all profits continued to go to the Catholic church.
