Welcome back everyone, in todays video, Ill be heading underground to take a look at bunkers.
Most people have probably never been in a bunker - thats because bunkers are quite secretive
or theyre meant for protection - once the danger has passed though - bunkers are quite
often just abandoned.
If you visited old ones today, youll find them to be creepier than most places on the
surface.
Mind your head on the way down, my name is Danny Burke and this is the Top 10 Scary Underground
Bunkers That Should Have Stayed A Secret …
Starting off at number 10 we have The Safe House[a].
On May 5th 2017, the YouTube channel -Shiey- posted a video of him discovering and exploring
a fully stocked underground safe house.
He found it while walking through the grounds of an old factory in the industrial area of
his city.
As he was exploring, he discovered a strange concrete block with a metal gate on the side
of it.
He opened it and climbed the ladder.
There, he found a dark, small tunnel leading to an underground bomb shelter and safe house.
What youre seeing is the results of his exploration.
The rooms seem to have been abandoned but were scavenged for valuables before its owners
left.
Some of the rooms contained old looking military posters written in Russian.
Many of the posters were mounted behind glass on a wall and lit up.
Other rooms contain boxes of supplies and equipment - enough for dozens of people.
What were they for?
What were they planning and perhaps most importantly, where are they now?
Moving on to number 9 we have The People Above[b].
This video was uploaded in October 2017 by the YouTube channel Probzz.
They visited this underground bunker but 5 of their friends decided to turn back eventually.
They said that continuing to explore it just as 2 was the worst decision theyd ever made
and that it was terrifying.
After following brick hallways filled with pipes, the rooms eventually began to open
up.
They still had no idea what the bunker was used for.
There were strange holes in the floor that revealed another space below - it appeared
that they were standing on just a thin bit of concrete.
When the others left, the vibe got even creepier.
ED 4:39 … their bravery was rewarded though when they found a secret area where it seemed
like the ceiling had caved in.
The nervous laughter turned to genuine fear though when they heard someone else was nearby.
ED 7:48 … it wasnt long before they decided to get out of there before they run into whoever
or whatever was down there with them …
Coming in at number 8 we have The Water Plant[c].
In March 2018, a underground bunker in South West England made the news when it went on
sale for 28,000 pounds - about 36 and a half thousand dollars.
Is that a good price?
Maybe, but wait till you see the inside.
The bunker was built under an old water plant that has been decommissioned and largely forgotten
since the 1960s.
It was bought by a man who wanted to turn it into a hostel or a mausoleum to store the
ashes of dead people.
As you can see from these pictures, it certainly had the right vibe.
The rusting halls and corroded rooms are being slowly reclaimed by nature - moss and grass
is now creeping over the old machines and corrugated walls.
The owner said it isnt suitable for residential living - and I think most people would agree.
Moving on to number 7 we have Hello Satan[d].
In 2014, Two Men in Germany were out exploring some woods when they found two strange pipes
sticking out of the ground.
As they got closer, they found the entrance to a bunker surrounded by trees.
They prized the wooden lid off using a crowbar and found an iron door.
They followed a dark hospital corridor down for what felt like forever.
Other pathways appeared but they decided to keep going straight so that they didnt get
lost.
There were holes in the wall that appeared to be made by a hammer.
Eventually, they started to find strange graffiti on the wall and realised they werent the first
people to discover the bunker.
At first, it seemed like the kind of grafiti some kids would do for fun - but then the
writing seemed to get more sinister when they found some graffiti that just said -help-
… then they found a huge yellow door that seemed to have been ripped off its hinges.
They didnt think it was possible for a person to do this - it looked as heavy as a bank
vault door.
After that point, the rooms seem to look more and more decayed.
Eventually, they find some graffiti that, in German, reads -Hello Satan, I love you-
… thats when they knew they had seen enough.
They quickly retraced their steps and left the underground bunker …
Next up at the number 6 spot we have Mothmans Lair[e].
Those of you who have watched a lot of my Urban Legends will have heard me talk about
the Mothman.
A creepy half man, half moth creature that was seen across West Virginia during the 1960s.
The locals said that the Mothman had a secret lair that only a few people knew about - the
TNT bunkers in Point Pleasant.
In 2016, Dan Bell uploaded a YouTube video of him and a friend exploring the abandoned
bunkers.
They had to make their way through pitch black marshes and woods until eventually they found
the entrance to the bunker.
ED 13:12 … they head inside in silence.
The old walls were covered with graffiti, many of them making reference to the legend
of the Mothman.
ED 13:39 There was also satanic graffiti that said burn the witch and 666.
ED 15:38 After a short walk through the woods, they come across another bunker with similar
writing on the wall.
Needless to say, they didnt find the Mothman, but there are two other videos in their Mothman
Lair series if you wanna go check them out …
Moving on to number 5 we have Urban Geeks.
These are the guys who uploaded a video in May 2018 showing a creepy bunker they found
in England.
After exploring the surface level for a while, they eventually go underground.
ED 9:45.
It gets darker and darker, the grafiti becomes more difficult to read.
The walls look like theyre crumbling around them, and then they see this.
ED 10:23.
Thats right - some grafiti telling them that they are being watched.
Your natural reaction may be to dismiss this as just a joke - but part of you would still
be wondering if someone really did live in this complex, watching every person that passed
through - and perhaps never made it out.
Eventually, the temperature plummets and they decided to get out of there ...
Next up at number 4 we have Mezzarino[f].
Thats the name of the Australian YouTuber who went out to explore a bunker in 2017.
He went there not knowing anything about it - he did some research online and almost nothing
came up - that would put some people off but he decided to go for it anyway.
ED 3:16 After exploring the woods on the surface, they eventually find a small metal door.
This led to a spiral staircase.
The rooms at the bottom were covered in old white tiles.
ED 5:17
Eventually, they find one of the first signs of humans down there - a ouija board thats
been written on paper.
Clearly someone had used this bunker to try and contact the spirit world.
After visiting the bunker, the group had no more answers to their questions of who built
it, what was it used for and why exactly it was abandoned …
Next up at number 3 we have The Fuhrerbunker[g].
Those of you who are up on your history will recognise this place immediately as the last
headquarters of Adolf Hitler during WW2 and the place where he committed suicide.
Its where Hitler made his last ditch attempts to save his Nazi regime as the armies of the
allies rolled towards Berlin.
Like I said, Hitler killed himself, the Allies soon won the war and the Soviets spent the
next 4 years destroying Nazi landmarks.
They tried to blow up the bunker but only partially succeeded.
In modern times, German authorities dismantled everything else and built a car park right
on top of it.
You wouldnt even know you were there if you walked past it.
This has been done in an attempt to stop the area becoming a neo-Nazi shrine.
Moving on to number 2 we have The Medical Bunker[h].
In July 2016, the YouTube channel -Hell on Earth- posted a video of them exploring an
Abandoned Ungerground WW2 Medical Bunker in Sheffield England.
Before going on there, they were told it was used as an air raid shelter for people to
hide from German bombs and also to treat the wounded.
One of the first things they found was some sort of melted candle - or egg yoke - or,
something, its hard to tell.
ED 2:52.
Then, things start to take a bit of a creep turn when the guys hear a strange knocking
sound in the background.
ED 4:17.
The
group carries on as far as they can but eventually, there are huge parts of the cieling that have
just caved in from the ground above.
I was wondering what would come after if they kept exploring - maybe theyll return one day
to find out …
And finally at number 1 we have The Secret Forest Door[i].
This video was uploaded by WW2 History Hunter in 2016 who explores old WW2 sites - this
one was an old German bunker.
He has visited the site before but this time he brought equipment.
ED 8:19 The bunker is a bad condition.
Decades of water pouring in has corroded the iron and turn the wooden beams to pulp.
He then finds a long halway where the walls have metal bars coming out of them.
He guesses that this is because there used to be doors there before - where they are
now - he doesnt know.
As he heads deeper into the bunker, the lack of light makes it almost impossible to film
and we have to rely on his verbal descriptions.
He enters a huge room with stalegtites coming down from the cieling.
He sees another door which leads to an area with more stairs.
ED 13:28 The stairs seem to be built into the living rock.
Whatever the Germans were planning for this bunker during WW2 - they wanted it to withstand
a lot of firepower …
And thats all I have for you guys in todays video, what creepy aspect of the world shall
I explore next?
The choice, as ever, is yours … thanks for watching as always, my name is Danny Burke
and Ill see you all in the next video
