* Lowood School in CharlotteBronte's ''Literature/JaneEyre'', though the conditions improve after the big typhoid outbreak, with the filthy cook getting fired, Brocklehurst being edged out of his post and donors putting up a new building. It overlaps a little with the OrphanageOfFear, since the pupils have all lost at least one parent. A school drawn from life: the model for Lowood was the Clergy Daughters' School at Cowan Bridge, where two of Bronte's sisters contracted fatal illnesses. Lowood's proprietor Mr. Brocklehurst is similarly based on Cowan Bridge's William Carus Wilson. Several of Bronte's contemporaries noticed the resemblance and complained loudly (Carus Wilson among them), while some survivors complained that she'd left too much out.
** The real horror is that Clergy Daughters was considered one of the best schools of its kind, and Rev. Bronte sent his girls there because it seemed in general to be a pleasant place where they'd get an inexpensive but high-quality education.
