Ash & Kelly from Ash vs Evil Dead.
A mental patient is a loony. For whatever reason, these people have suffered from circumstances in their lives that have made it impossible to deal with reality. In the best of cases, they receive treatment from a respectable psychiatrist or mental health facility. In the worst of instances, they are remanded to a sanitarium because they're a five-star certified whack-a-doodle.
Season two of American Horror Story was chock full of loonies. You had nuns possessed by demons, priests with delusions of grandeur and so-called scientists who wanted to populate the world with genetically mutated aberrations. To say nothing of the patients!
Many fine young whack jobs may even find themselves as patients at the Westin Hills Psychiatric Hospital, which is located near the town of Springwood, Ohio in the A Nightmare on Elm Street film series. Here, groups of teenagers are placed on suicide watch after suffering intense nightmares involving a demonic killer named Freddy Krueger who murders them in their dreams. Although staff members generally write these patients off as being Cuckoo for Coco-Puffs, they are actually correct in their assertion that someone is using their dreams to kill them. To keep the more unruly patients in line, the staff at Westin Hills would prescribe an experimental dream suppressant called Hypnocil. Although this was used only in special cases at the onset, it eventually became standard medication once the staff learned the truth about Krueger.
