Certainly from my point of view it seems highly unlikely that they would even refer to the setting as a mental hospital/asylum unless they were planning to include more horror based stuff, especially when they start introducing more classic Victorian gothic horror characters, namely Jekyll and Hyde. Having those two characters in the show means that they're going to at least attempt to do something concerning the horror genre, just like when they revealed that before the first curce Dr Whale was Dr. Frankenstein; if they only needed to use Jekyll and Hyde to introduce the serum that split them into two then they wouldn't have set them up as major characters for next season, they would've killed them off or stranded them somewhere with no way to escape. Yes, but the world Jekyll and Hyde were residing in prior to coming to SB was not a horror world, but if anything more of a steampunk world, or otherwise just a mishmash of a bunch of worlds. And that is the world Hyde brought people over from. So we can't really say what stories we will see in 6A. Jekyll and Hyde were residing there because their story isn't finished, that doesn't mean that they originally came from the LUS. We've seen with characters introduced in previous season finales that they usually play a big part in the first half of the following season and are usually involved in at least one set of flashbacks; since Hyde is now supposed to be in charge of Storybrooke we're almost certainly going to get to see his and Jekyll's backstory. Given the origin of the characters it would be highly unlikely, if not impossible, for them to have originated anywhere but the LWC and since that's where Dr. Frankenstein came from as well it would count as a horror world.
