Then in the next town over ther was the adult hospital Eloisehttp://www.talesofeloise.com/history.html

At both places over a dozen buildings were conected by tunnels
In some tunnels there was a faint breeze, indicating a nearby exit. Other passages were heavy with foul air. It appeared that no one had traversed these dark caverns in many years. There was no way of telling what we would stumble onto. As excited as we were, we admitted being prepared to make unpleasant discoveries. If this was not death&#39;s custom-tailored performance space, I don&#39;t know what is.

Trouble? Have you been abandoned as a child in one of these places. Or have you stumbled on them by accident?

There happened to be one in my very small and boring home town, after reading patients records about electro & insulen shock treatments and see pictures of these fucked up people it seemed the closest to hell and pure evil a mortal can get. It&#39;s super freaky when your tripping.

From AP News,

A male mental patient was charged Tuesday with murdering a female mental patient whose dismembered body was found buried on the grounds of a state facility, the attorney general&#39;s office said.

Investigators on Tuesday discovered the body of Ann Marie Davey, who was 36 when she disappeared from ____ State Hospital in 1978, buried in "three or four holes," at the mental institution, said Kenneth Wayne, an attorney general&#39;s spokesman.

The cause of death was not immediately determined, but the attorney general&#39;s office classified the death as a homicide, Wayne said.

State police arrested Melvin Willson, a former ____ Hospital patient now confined to Bridgewater State Hospital, charged him with murder and brought him to the District Court. Willson, a mental patient for nearly 40 years, is in his late 50s, said Wayne. Miss Davey had been in institutions in Massachusetts and Maine for 18 years.

The woman&#39;s disappearance was publicized last spring during a state Senate probe of "unexplained" deaths at state institutions. Sen. Jack H. Backman complained at the time that, although another patient had been found in possession of seven of Miss Davey&#39;s teeth, state officials had not explored that lead.

Backman said at least 26 other patients have died at state and private institutions in the past three years under circumstances he considers questionable. They include suicides, drownings in bathtubs, chokings on food and heart attacks.

I bet England has all kinds of derelict and abandoned places since it&#39;s a lot older than the USA.

my dad used to live in a bigass scary old house. a quick scan on google says it was built in 1170 but i dont know. anyway its like a mansion thats split into two houses. i have two stories about this place.

1. once my dad went on holiday and i had to look after the house for a few days, i&#39;m not afraid to admit i was shit scared so i invited a few freinds over to keep me company. so one night i went to work and when i got back (cant remember what time but it was dark) but they had slipped into what we call alpha male syndrome (made that up but its probably true) where one was shitting it and the other acted like rambo. then we decided to go to the shop, so me and the one who was pooing it went (during this time i explained the phantom mascherator(poo shredder for thin pipes in old houses)) then the other guy came sprinting up the road kinda scared. we got all our stuff and got back and decided to crash out in the living room then for no reason the mascherator went crazy and started vibrating the house down. for some reason 2 of us didnt care but the other guys face :fear2:

2. another time i went i had to sleep on my own downstairs. my dad told me that he had slept down there with his gf and seen a scaryface sctretch through the curtain, before going to bed. that night i couldnt decide to close the curtains and see a ghost or open them and see a ghost in the pitch dark garden.


sorry for wasting your eyes. i have a few more stories which i may post one day. or maybe not

Hey I live right around the corner from old Eloise...or what used to be Eloise since they tore most of the old mental hospitals down.
Before I moved over on this side of town I lived near the old Clinton valley Center. In Pontiac.
For some reason I seem to find myself always living close to old asylums.. :unsure:

I&#39;ve always been attracted to these buildings because of their architechture. I find them beautifull and I also find it sad that buildings just aren&#39;t made with that much flare anymore..
I&#39;m also into the history. I never spent anytime "Partying" in any of these old buildings cause I always found it sort of wrong and disturbing to peoples memories and history that these buildings hold. I also was totally against the destruction so many people would cause when they went out to party in them.. :(

Not England Trouble. I come from Scotland. Which is a Country integral to the UK as is England. Yes there used to be that type of place here. But they have mostly disappeared. You have to understand that this is a very small island, you have some states larger. Yet we have a population only about a quarter of the USA. Ergo there is not much that can go unnoticed. Or for that fact derelict for long, before it is redeveloped. The hollywood description of the UK is far away from the reality. Am I talking a lot of shit? OK time for bed. :lol:

I love this type of stuff.

Here is an abandoned brewery in St. Louis connected to underground tunnels. Too bad I didn&#39;t know about it when I was living there.

It is reported to be haunted as is the family mansion, due the many tradegies in that family.

:ghostface: Gartloch Asylum in Glasgows :ghostface:

http://www.hiddenglasgow.com/Asylums/Gartl...52003/index.htm (http://www.hiddenglasgow.com/Asylums/Gartloch_14052003/index.htm)
The Victorians built them and in the last 10 years they have been phased out and closed down. Now lying abandoned to the elements and the will of the ever vigilant property developers, Glasgows Asylums no longer hold patients.
