Hey there. Current High Point University student here. The university owns the mall and uses it for storage. So most of what you’re seeing isn’t “abandoned” items or materials. They get used on campus. The Christmas decorations get used for the annual High Point University Christmas drive through for example (look it up, it’s rather neat). Otherwise the mall is used as a mail center and hosts various student projects. I am the treasurer for High Point University’s Volunteer Center who’s partnered with the Center for Community Engagement and we make use of this often. That “security” was more likely than not an HPU security officer who has no real authority to arrest. Sorry if this information ruins the premise of the video, just figured you may want to know what all is going on here!

The very first store on the far left corner that you said was a pizza place was the Cookie company .. then Sbarros, there was a Japanese place then on the end next to the theatre was Panda Express.. Chick fil a was on the right then that next store was a bunch of different things that never lasted, then Subway and a Wendy’s then the arcade. The last spot used to be the customer service place. I worked in that mall for years as well as my husband (Cfa)

15:31 Behind that plastic sheet used to be the Sears. 15:36 I used to work in that KayBee Toys!!! I worked there for 3 Christmases in a row during the 90's. 17:52 That used to be a Chick-Fil-a!!!! 18:06 That used to be a Cookie Factory, they sold large cookies there. 18:57 Yes, that WAS an arcade!!! 19:41 I saw MANY movies there in the late 90's!!!! 21:12 That movie theater had it's own mini arcade...that's where it was. 22:09 That looks like the old video game store or the Suncoast video store. I'm not sure because you didn't pan into the store enough but I remember shopping in it when it was open. 22:28 Behind you from this shot there was a Sunglasses Hut & there was a candy store beside of the Sunglasses Hut.

High Point University uses the mall for storage as another person said I have lived here all my life and the University puts on a huge Christmas drive thru .I can't believe they let that roof go like that , with all the money that University has . I used to shop in that mall when my son was a baby sometimes we would just walk he loved to ride in his stroller. I think they are covering up the skylights ,This mall was very pretty in its day . Thanks for filming it .

I remember going to Oak Hollow as a child. It's interesting to see it in this state after so many years and so many memories. I barely recognize some of these locations. I distinctly recall the food court and theater, as well as the nice area with the astroturf circle and elevator (12:14). It was such a unique place to me, and honestly, I'd be happy to see someone make an entire map of Oak Hollow mall virtually to just walk through. No scary monsters or horrifying twists, just exploring the environment of a place that once was.

I used to check in on this place when I had business to be in High Point, watching its decline. I remember twice eating at the food court when only one or two places was still open. The last time I was there, I remember going to the Hallmark store which was weirdly way off on its own surrounded by closed spaces. The few other remaining stores were huddled near the entrances.

I’m surprised if a university owns the mall that the roof is in such poor shape. The school should use it as a satellite campus and make good use of the mall. It would be perfect for classrooms and such. In other comments apparently students go in there. The roof should be in better condition if people use the mall regularly especially with the mold problem.

The nutcrackers remind me of a Dr Who episode when Rose walked into a room full of dummies and the dummies all came alive. Imagine if the nutcrackers all turned to face the camera and the video suddenly ended. The soldiers were pretty freaky too. What crazy things to find in an old mall. If it is owned by a university then i guess you are looking at why student fees are so expensive.

Came here to comment about how the Christmas stuff was not abandoned it's just in storage. I did wonder where they stopped that stuff tho lol... it's really weird to see how deteriorated it's gotten in the last few years. My kids and I used to go there right before it closed for Good when Bath & Body Works and Victoria's Secret where right before they closed for good. It was really odd and eerie shopping in a mostly empty Mall. Dillard's is still somehow holding on.

I am shocked that High Point University didn't make use of that vacant space with that mall in such good condition and so new for malls. They could have easily used the mall building to grow their campus. They could have easily converted the small stores into classrooms, labs, offices, data centers, or other facilities. They could take an anchor store and turn it into a library, a computer lab, a student union space, or the like easily. Another use for an anchor store would be to convert into a performing arts theater, gymnasium, workout gym, aquatic center, or other facility. The food court could serve as a cafeteria for the students. They could have taken those abandoned movie theaters and converted them into lecture halls. With the oversized parking lots, you could bulldoze some of the parking and build an student apartment or a dormitory. They could also add an athletic field for sports too. They could have taken some of the remaining space and put in a data center or server rooms for the campus. It would have been very easy to make a university satellite campus out of a mall like that! Malls have been turned into college campuses before. Amigoland Mall in Brownsville TX was turned into the ITEC campus for Texas Southmost College. Palm Springs Mall in Palm Springs, California is being turned into a campus for College of the Desert. P.S. I am guessing about those Nutcrackers. Did Macy's leave them behind for their parade? Were they part of the University's decorations or marching band? Was someone leasing that space for use as a storage facility? Where they part of the original mall's decorations?

High Point University uses it for storage. I had heard that they couldn't get Dillard's Clearance to leave. Don't know if that's why they decided not to make classrooms in it, because that was what was suppose to happen. I just went by there yesterday and saw where the old Barnes and Noble is now a church. The University had made it a Arts class. The University lost money this time.

The university looked into the option of doing many things with the mall space. At one point we were shown concept art that included converting it into several academic buildings and a basketball arena. Unfortunately, the architect determined that it would be too cost prohibitive to do the renovations and because Sears had an automotive shop there, any work done on the structure must go through some sort of EPA checks.

I have lived in highpoint/thomasville all my life. This was my mall as a kid.. kinda makes me sad watching it because it brings back better times as a kid with my mom and sister in the 90's. Those nutcrackers you seen, I remember those, however I do not remember them having so many. I remember during Christmas time when they had santa come to the mall, there were a few around the "entrance" to go see him you see him set up on the bottom floor around the fountain at 12:16. If you have any questions about which store was which, I'll try to help. BTW, where you pointed and said "that has to be a pizza place", that was actually a cookie shop. The place to the left of it was a sbarro. Thanks for the video. Really was a fantastic mall.

This is a different kind of closure. This Mall opened in the mid 90s, not an old mall by most standards, yet the parent co was looking for a buyer a dozen years after it's opening. This closure is more about the economics of Highpoint than the nations distaste for them as the move to on line shopping becomes the norm.

I snuck into the OMNI International Mall In Miami in 2021. It was almost completely guted except for the office. The Mall was closed down in 1999 after being built in 1977. Its probly the longest abandoned mall in the US because there is a 25 story hotel on top that is still leased till today. Had a blast in there. What strikes me about these abandoned malls is the same electrical humming noise you hear in them. Sadly I lost my phone which had 150 videos of the mall. sucks

The whole place has been so down for years before they closed. When I lived in high point. I went to this mall all the time. And went to get my hair done in one of the big store place over there. There use to be a movie theater there. Long time ago. It’s sad how it turned out. Wish they would do something to fix it. Back to where we can shop there. Or make apartments out of it. Saraba Italian. There was a cookie place. There was a jappenese. Chinese place to eat.

Just watching video. As many have mentioned, High Point Univ. (private school) stores a lot of their campus holiday decorations. Every holiday season, the school features a very elaborate and extensive holiday presentation and opens up the campus to the public. Obviously, a large empty mall provides an ideal and convenient location to store the items as the mall is just a few miles from the campus. Given the cost of warehouse space, it’s likely HPU saves on storage fees vs. more commercial storage options.

All the large nutcrackers and soldiers are owned by High Point University (across the street/intersection) and are used on campus for Christmas decorations. The Food Court had the arcade and the cinema, as well as a Chick-Fil-A, Panda Express, Sbarro Pizza, Cookie spot, K&W Cafeteria quick service (briefly) and Subway IIRC. The first floor ZOE urban barber shop used to be a Barnies coffee. The second floor store with the white roman columns out front was a Structure, with Express nearby. There were rumors that High Point University was going to use it for additional classroom space, etc. I once heard they were going to put a sports stadium on the land. But at this point, who knows. The Marriot hotel is still there and open, next to the old Circuit City building.

Not sure who thought it was a good idea to add a second mall in the area especially after Carolina circle mall was beaten out by four seasons, even holly hill mall has become a ghost town over the years after other shopping centers opened in the area, I remember going to oak hollow a few times as a kid though

We have one in tampa, florida. It was called east lake mall, its now Net Park- it has high speed internet service. How about condo's to live in and medical offices and hospital to serve the residents. 17:32 17:34 17:35 17:36

The store Dillards is still there. They own their piece of the mall and have a clearance center open to the public

Amazing explore with quite some risks taken, the hand dryer was hilarious - just one recommendation, lose the creepy dubbed-in background ambience sound, and mall music - if there's silence, let it be heard 🙂

The food court is almost always on the top floor of a mall so that proper ventilation can be available for the ovens and cooktops. In my experience, unless is was a ranch-style mall, I have never seen a food court on the ground floor.

I was shopping at Dillard's here the other day and I did see some construction people entering the mall. Idk if they were there to repair it or if HPU called them, all I know is they are doing something inside of there.

Moved to Greensboro in 1984 this mall at that time it was a nice mall. It even had a ice skating rink inside it and people were always skating. Then came the decline and the mall was wasting away. Even after the remodel it never made a come back. As is with all enclosed malls they are going down. The Four Seasons Mall after a remodel didn't thrive. A lot of people are shopping on line now. Malls are becoming a thing of the past. With the advent of social media, shopping on line.

Did you end up getting in with permission or finding a way in on a later date? 11:32- what was the music in the background? It sounded like an organ, did you ever find the source?

Like the Gentlemen told you, nothing is abandoned, makes for good click bait, was a Mall, now a Storage Facility, and a very organized one at that...
