Hello and welcome back to the Most Amazing channel on the internet.
I am your host, Rebecca Felgate, and today we are talking about the Top 10 Scary Abandoned
Hospitals.
You guys seem to love our scary lists!
At our most recent Fan meet up we met so many awesome people, and loads of you came and
told us about how you were all about the scary lists!
We’re listening, and today we are getting the clinical kind of spooky!
I have to say as well, a lot of these places were former psychiatric units, which somehow
makes them even scarier; are the spirits of the criminally insane still stalking these
abandoned buildings?
You decide!
Before we delve into the video, though, I just want to ask you guys what the scariest
situation you have ever been in?
I’ll tell you to mind at the end of the video!
Also please leave a thumbs up if you like our content!
Shall we start this list off with a Nazi Asylum?
At number 10, we have an Abandoned Hospital that Hitler stayed in?
Check out Beelitz Heilstatten Hospital in Berlin
Located 30 kilometers outside Berlin, the huge hospital has been used as a place to
treat tuberculosis as well as transforming into a military hospital in world wars one
and two.
In 1916, Adolf Hitler was admitted to the hospital after being wounded in the battle
of the Somme.
Later, in World War Two it was exclusively used to treat Nazis.
A lot of nasty people have been nursed back to health here, which is pretty concerning
if you think about it and means it is not a place I would want to spend the night.
They say that walls absorb history…well..
there is some pretty intense history absorbed in these walls.
The hospital is VAST too…
like…seriously huge.
While it is abandoned, it has been used as a film set on a couple of occasions.
For example, It was used in the 2012 movie, the Pianist.
9 - Denbigh Asylum Denbigh Asylum is a former psychiatric institution
in North Wales.
Over 1,500 patients were lobotomized on the grounds between 1848 and 1995.
Not only that, Welsh MP George Maitland Lloyd took his life in the asylum in 1949.
Urban explorer and filmmaker Lee Rielly shot an incredible piece of footage on a DJI Phantom
4 Drone flying over the old abandoned building.
It is kind of hauntingly beautiful.
Lee also ventured inside and took some photos of the crumbling building.
Talking about his Urban exploration, Lee said “the buildings just sit there letting nature
take over.
It's sad in some ways but I feel proud to be one of the few people to see the places
in their current state.”
8 - Britain’s Largest Lunatic Asylum Hellingly Hospital has been abandoned for
18 years.
Sitting in the Sussex countryside near the village of Hellingly, the building has fallen
into disrepair.
The main hall has a theatre like a vibe, with spooky high ceilings.
Some of the old equipment is still in the building too, like this patient chair, for
example.
I can imagine someone laying in that chair while a doctor prodded and poked at them with
utensils.
The fact that that chair can still be found in the building is pretty chilling.
7 - This next hospital is also in Berlin and is rumored to be haunted by Zombies.
Whaaat?
Also, this hospital was a children’s hospital which makes things even creepier.
The facility was called Kinderkrankenhaus, which to the English tongue makes it seem
even scarier!
These days, the building in the woods has been battered by the elements and ransacked
by vandals.
Urban legend in the nearby town is that the old abandoned hospital is home to a number
of zombies waiting to strike.
Those who dare visit the location have taken some terrifying pictures if the interior and
exterior.
On the flip side, though, some of the graffiti is pretty cool.
6 - Kings Park Psychiatric Hospital – NYC Kings Park is on Long Island and it opened
in the late 1800s.
At the time it opened its doors as an asylum, it was the largest state-funded mental institute.
The facility came complete with railroads to bring in supplies.
The facility expanded and eventually suffered from overcrowding in the 1950s.
By the mid-90s it had run out of money and was closed down.
While people can explore portions of the grounds, the buildings are kept away from the public
eye.
That hasn’t stopped urban explorers gaining a glimpse, though…and I have to say, it
looks terrifying.
Like most scary abandoned hospitals, it is surrounded by woodland…
I can just imagine the patients running through the trees trying to escape.
Youtube channel Vocativ made a whole video about the place that you should check out.
Also…here are a few pictures from the inside…Look at those paintings on the wall too.
I am not talking the graffiti….
The kind of absurdist ones at the back, like what on earth is going on there?
Another New York Asylum up next, we have the Willard Asylum for the Chronically insane
at number 5 This is one of the creepiest places on earth.
Operating from 1800 until 1995, rumors circulated that once people were admitted here, they
would never be leaving.
The average stay of a patient was 30 years, which….is actually longer than most life
sentences…so that is pretty intense.
It is also said that people who died in the asylum were buried in nameless graves in the
hospital grounds.
As the hospital was closing down in 1995, an employee found 400 old suitcases stowed
away in the loft, clearly packed away as if the person was never going to leave.
The cases contained personal items and letters from family members, which is really sad if
you think about how the patients weren’t allowed to keep them.
Some contained old photographs, which are really haunting to look at when you know that
these people were admitted to the hospital and never allowed to leave.
Several murders took place in this hospital…we have the Gaebler Children’s Centre at Metropolitan
State Hospital in Waltham, Massachusetts at number 4.
The children’s center was not a nice place to be.
In a book written by Dinah William’s on the topic of Abandoned Insane Asylums, she
reveals how the center was once amid a scandal of accidental poisoning.
On top of that, the location has garnered the nickname of the hospital of seven teeth
due to a nasty murder in the 1970s.
A patient named Anna Marie Davee was pounced upon and murdered by a fellow patient, a deranged
man named Melvin Wilson.
When Police finally investigated him, they found he had chopped up her body and hidden
it in three separate graves.
It seems that Wilson kept three of her teeth as a souvenir.
The hospital closed in 1992.
While some parts of it have been demolished, some scary abandoned buildings still remain,
concealing their dark history.
Sooo what is scary than a creepy abandoned hospital?
A creepily abandoned mortuary – basically a hospital for the dead at number 3
This is disgusting!
Memorial Mound in Kentucky was left abandoned for 18 years with corpses left to rot inside!
Caskets were disintegrating and bodies left in blue plastic bags.
Weirdly, coffins were elevated off the finding and left to decompose.
Embalming liquids still remain in their tubs too...which is weird!
Some of the interior walls and fabrics appear to be molding, too.
The site closed down in the year 2000 and was left abandoned since.
The building, bodies and all, was rediscovered in 2014 and is now on sale.
Who on earth would want to buy this building?
It is horrifying and more than likely totally haunted!
What is worse than a creepy abandoned dead person hospital….
A creepy abandoned Mental Asylum riddled with ghosts….
Give number 2 your best smile…
it is the Sai Ying Pun Psychiatry Hospital in Hong Kong.
This hospital was the sole asylum in Hong Kong Between 1947 and 1961.
The building was later abandoned in the 70s, however, it seems a number of ghostly spirits
were left behind.
Supernatural spirit hunters have reported mysterious footsteps and sounds of a woman
wailing…worst of all, though, some people who have been unlucky enough to be in the
building at night have reported visions of an evil man bursting into flames, while others
report seeing decapitated ghouls staling the halls at night.
The scariest and haunted hospital in the world has also been the spot of many murders and
suicides… at number 1 we have Kingseat Psychiatric Hospital in New Zealand
Opened in 1932 and shut down in 1999, the Kingseat Hospital was not a nice place to
be when it was opened and is seemingly even worse now it is closed.
The maximum security psychiatric unit was very very intense…and you can still see
the bars that were placed on the windows as well as scratch marks in the walls from where
patients were clawing to get out.
Local legend has it that more nurses died at the facility than patients.
Since the hospital's closure in the 90s, several death cases have been reopened and investigated
as manslaughter or murder amid repeated claims of abuse, with some saying staff beat several
patients to death and simply let others starve to death.
There have been over 100 ghost sightings in the building, which has been the subject of
several paranormal investigations over the years.
Many believe the hospital is haunted by a grey nurse… others report seeing a number
of shadows.
A family that lives nearby has even claimed that the ghosts play with their children.
Creepy.
Okay, so that was the top 10 scary abandoned hospitals – which do you think is the scariest?
I told you I would tell you my scariest story earlier, didn’t I!
Well, I have never been to a scary abandoned hospital, but I have been to a haunted house!
