I wrote this one before, I think, so short version:
We used to have a room at the hospital-6139- that patients died in statistically significantly more often than the other rooms. (We prolly helped the stats along by putting gomers in there, towards the end) The weird thing was, many times the call light would go off by itself after a death until we got someone else in there. It got so that we didn't even bother to check the room after a while, just muttered "Shut up, Ghost" and canceled it from the desk. The very young candy stripers would claim it was freezing cold in there, they felt a presence, they thought they saw a shadow, blah blah blah.

Us ol' battleaxes knew they were full of it.

Hardly suprising that more patients died in that room than any other if you ignored their calls for assistance.

Indeed.
The assumption by nursing staff that somebody is going to die can't help their chances of survival either.

Putting those you've written off in an unheated, secluded room notorious for death, then ignoring their cries for help until you're sure they're deceased?
In first with the Godwin, here.

So,
that's where your mum ended up, isn't it?

What about room 6139?
You're scared of room 6139, ain't ya?

Mr TDub, what's in room 6139?
