### The Haus Waldorf Experiment
A CIA memorandum from June 1952 describes an ARTICHOKE interrogation conducted at a safe house called Haus Waldorf, in the countryside near Frankfurt, where ARTICHOKE team members used "light dosages of drugs coupled with hypnosis" to induce "a complete hypnotic trance" in a suspected Soviet intelligence agent. The trance lasted approximately one hour and forty minutes and was followed by "a subsequent total amnesia produced" in the subject. This experiment, documented in the ARTICHOKE conference files that form part of the National Security Archive's Gottlieb testimony briefing book, illustrates the operational mode of Camp King-area experiments: small teams, recruited subjects from the Soviet bloc intelligence community, and a combination of pharmacological and hypnotic techniques drawn from both the American behavioral research programs and, through the Paperclip doctors, from Nazi precedent.[^4]
