Tunnels
editIt would be nice if this could be expanded a bit. Right now it reads, "Tunnel systems exist beneath the hospital." First, it should be "existed." Then--are the tunnels still there? Or have they been filled in, and if so, when, and by whom (the state, the college)? If they still exist, are they still accessible? Since some of the buildings of Willowbrook are (apparently) still standing, do the tunnels connect these buildings? Finally--is there any real reason that the tunnels are mentioned in relation to Rand and his victims and the missing persons? When the tunnels were mentioned, I expected to then read about how Rand had used the tunnels or something. Instead, it seems to be a "throw off" fact - interesting, but really unrelated to the page's topic.Colbey84 (talk) 16:24, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
Motive
editSatanic rituals is mentioned as one of the possible motives, but "Cropsey" mentions also another possible motive - Rand holding a view that mentally disabled people do not deserve to live. Though, as far as I understand, at least one of the victims covered in the movie (Holly Ann Hughes) had no mental problems.--Alexmagnus (talk) 20:34, 9 October 2016 (UTC)

Clarity
editThe first paragraph of "victims" refers to "the island" and "the parks" before any island or parks have been metioned. Can someone add info as to which island and parks these are?
