Notable loot

 * The Charisma bobblehead is located on Jack Cabot's office desk, close to elevator, administration area.
 * A Syringer in the last room on the left at the end of the block of cells in the basement (before reaching Lorenzo by dropping down through a square hole full of exposed rebar in the floor).
 * It is possible to acquire a deathclaw gauntlet from Lefty; other raiders at this location may also have one.
 * Mysterious serum, Lefty has four syringes, and three are on a table near Lorenzo.
 * Overdue book - There are potentially two in the filing cabinets in the Control Room. Check the loose draw on top of the cabinets by jumping up a bit, where one book may be found, otherwise hidden out of view. Another book found in the small room access through the short brick tunnel out of the Control room towards the lift used to enter. Also in an open filing cabinet to the west side (left on entering).
 * A Massachusetts Surgical Journal can be found on a table in Lorenzo Cabot's cell.

Behind the scenes

 * The Parsons State Insane Asylum is based on the real life Danvers State Insane Asylum. This can also be considered another H.P. Lovecraft reference, as Danvers State Insane Asylum is mentioned by name in at least 2 of his works.  Furthermore, H.P. Lovecraft's Arkham Sanitarium was believed to be inspired by Danvers State, which in turn was the inspiration for Batman's Arkham Asylum.  Danvers State has appeared in at least one other video game, it was a level in 2004's Painkiller.
 * The patients records found on Jack's office terminal show that the asylum once held a vigilante named "Nightwar", a woman who only wore black leather, and a murderer who was always laughing. This might be a reference to the characters of Batman, Catwoman, and the Joker.
 * The "Abremalin field" imprisoning Lorenzo appears to be a reference to a historical occult work, The Book of Abramelin.
