Abandoned- The Haunted Kmart

[@trustysteeringwheeltray7392]

As of June 2020, there are only 44 Kmarts left in all of the world. Which means if you live near one, you live near a treasure.

[@mikey3980]

one by me closed like 5 years ago

[@cherilynnsorensen668]

I agree

[@vincentvarkor]

I had two one closed in 2003 and the another one in 2017 yeah find a Kmart is like finding a treasure

[@stefaniengland9839]

The Kmart where I live burned down almost 4 years ago, but if it hadn't it would probably still be open today

[@PrinceNyNy]

As of March 2021, There is ONLY 34 K-MARTS IN THE WHOLE WORLD.

[@davidbrown8303]

You can hear the ghosts of the little old ladies saying run run we don't want to mess the blue light special.

[@Rogervista100]

There is also a ghostly smell of Popcorn and Pizza...

[@veesintown]

@@Rogervista100 OMG YES I remember being in the store and I said why does it smell it someone is making popcorn to my mom and she said idk

[@davinp]

This Kmart opened in March 1975 and closed in March 2017 which means it's been abandoned for almost 3 years

@AldousHuxley's Ghost i sure do miss kmart was one of my favorite shopping place

[@KiltedVeteran]

[@carissaovo8417]

The place where the childrens toys and craft stuff was is said to be the most haunted part, also. I still cant believe its already been almost 4 years since it was shut down. I can still reamember going here everyday, to get my grandmas friend from work lol

The good ol' haunted Kmart. I've met a few people that I went to college with at WVUP who worked there and told me some crazy stories about that place.

[@huotarilovesradio7636]

Really?

[@KiltedVeteran]

​@Inability1 I must first preface that these are just stories I have heard secondhand from friends and fellow college acquaintances. I have not personally experienced any of these so I cannot validate the truthfulness in said stories. That being said, I have heard stories from several former employees experiencing strange goings on, especially while closing down the store for the night. They have talked about witnessing things randomly flying off the shelf or items being moved around. One of the folks I graduated college with said that they would put clothes or whatever on the shelves. They would leave the area briefly, come back, and find said clothes folded and stacked laying in the middle of the aisle. I e also hears from a couple of people that someone, ir something occasionally came over the PA system and spoke in a whisper-like voice. Many have also experience sounds of children laughing and playing after the store has closed for the night.

[@huotarilovesradio7636]

@@KiltedVeteranthat is creepy

[@DriftyAlison0]

Lost both of our Kmarts. One closed in 2012 and the other due to lease not being renewed in 2013. Both are not abandoned. The 2012 closure turned into an airforce store while the 2013 one turned into a Hobby Lobby.

[@CaptCanada45]

That alarm was the creepiest part of the whole video! Btw, why is there still power?

[@theral_24karatgarrett]

Sometimes they just never stop receiving power, I find it quite weird

[@robertscott4329]

At 8: 52 you film electronics on a shelf. I believe that is the system that kmart had in place to play music and power a giant blue light that the stores had put up in the early 2000's. Stores had a giant circular blue light that hung from the ceiling that flashed and a song was piped through the system when you turned it on. That program didn't last very long. Anyone remember that?

[@tammywallace5928]

Blue light special lol when I lil in the 70-80s my gram would run over lol!

[@Nevaehcover]

Yes it is

[@huotarilovesradio7636]

Tape player? it looks like a tape player

[@UndyingZombie]

That alarm is malfunctioning. Not too shocked but kind of annoying. I would have been soo tempted to break it just to shut it up to be honest.. Though I would never actually do it.

[@cgreen339]

Doesn’t sound like it’s malfunctioning sounds like it’s ready to be armed, just beep like that from the factory, it’s like that in most stores but the sound of life usually blocks it out Lolx

[@christophernicholson20]

This looks like this could be the perfect location to film a horror movie. It has all the elements it's dark, creepy, empty and abandoned.

[@SoosRamirez1]

Adds to the affect

[@markhuotari3816]

Those bathrooms are creepy and the backroom is more creepy at night for sure when there is no light makes it even more creepy and do you get a feeling that something will jump out at you ?

[@charitysghost1207]

I'm a security guard, so all I do is hang out in empty buildings. Sometimes I think about who used to be in these buildings and what they did. I've always wanted to go exploring abandoned buildings. It would be loads of fun.

[@huotarilovesradio7636]

No that’s too creepy

[@danestegman155]

Good video! I am surprised that the lights are still on, after this Kmart has been closed! That alarm going off is creepy! And your by yourself too! Nothing worse then running into cobwebs!

[@doug9066]

Nice to see inside a former Kmart after being closed for some time.

[@mikegallant811]

It ain't K-Dark yet , but definitely K-Dim.

[@phil34nc]

That's weird they leave the electric on in there. Because it looked like that Kmart has been gone a very long time.

They leave the electricity on in the buildings to prevent vandalism and copper wire looters.

[@flankercombat]

I remember getting my picture tooken for Christmas when I was a little kid. I never was aware that it was "haunted" at all. Infact it was the most lively place in town on southside. I remember going up to that same exact pharmacy and me and my grandpa getting his meds.

[@WilmingtonOHProductions]

That alarm wasn't really an alarm. It's one of the buzzers that go off when a door is open. So in this case a door must have been hanging open

[@Dailyswuzzy]

Damn

[@OtterloopB]

Camp Counselor: "You wanna hear a scary story about Kmart, kids?" Kids: "O-okay..." Camp Counselor: "Once upon a time, a Kmart closed down not far from here,and for years, nobody thought there was anything inside. Word got round by the locals that the place was haunted. So one night, an anonymous guy with a camera decided to see what was inside of this supposed haunted Kmart. His video camera was found discarded inside the Kmart by those who owned and occasionally inspected the property. When they were able to boot up what the guy had filmed inside, the property owners were aghast! The footage showed the guy creeping through dilapidated back rooms and offices, only ever finding mold and discarded paper work. Eventually, the guy carefully crept his way out onto the main floor where all the shelves used to be. When the camera turned, an audible gasp could be heard by the guy. There, still standing, was the Electronics Section. It hadn't been taken down. With trepidation, the guy crept toward the Electronic Section. As he inched closer and closer, the man stopped. The Inspectors claim they heard him muttering on film, "No. ... No-no. No, it can't be. It mustn't. Why?! Of all things, why?" The man's voice began to climb in alarm. Suddenly, he let out a blood-curdingly scream at what he saw still on the shelves." Kids: .... "Wh-what... what did he find?" Camp Counselor: "... You really want to know?" Kids: "... Yeah." Counselor: "You SURE you want to know?" Kids: "Y-yes. Yes! What was it?" Camp Counselor: "... It wasn't electronics." Kids: "....." Camp Counselor: "... IT WAS NOTHING BUT UFC WORKOUT DVDS!!!!" Kids: "AAAAAAAAAAaaUUUUuUuuUUUUGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[@jons.6216]

I was reading up on the one in San Jose California where I grew up as I know it's been closed for years! The plan was to gut the interior and make it a multi store facility. The big structure is still on Google maps! I've never actually been to a Kmart as that one was way across town for my family to bother! I have been to every other similar kind of discount retailer with the exception of Walmart because I just don't want to give them my patronage! Haha!

[@TT.4_]

Poor K-Mart has gone out, ever since Sears were going down it pulled all its other stores down with it. 1990’s-2000’s was love to grow up in K-Mart and Sears! I remember some K-Marts even having a Little Caesers Pizza in the inside.
