Exploring an Abandoned Mental Hospital at Night - Dark Past

[@DarkExploration]

In general, I don't believe in paranormal but in today's video thanks to the guys @TheProperPeople we had the chance to test our open opinions on the matter. Let me know if you enjoyed and if you want to see more night videos? Have a good one !

[@ParanormalExplorers]

Wow can’t wait to watch this. Looks creepy as out mate. Love anything paranormal. Will be another amazing video as always. 👍

[@pramana1685]

Yes it's a great way to make inquiries with whatever is left behind in these deserted places of unfathomed silence. Even with no answers, the posting of the questions can be reflective and introspective to the audience.

[@apriljackson1370]

I wonder if there's still active mental hospital around the world?

[@jamesrobertson9582]

@@apriljackson1370 Hi April, In answer to your question, yes there are still active mental hospitals at least in Oklahoma. Just off the top of my head, I know of two in Oklahoma that treat patients from mild depression up to the severely insane(and I hate that title) that have commited crimes such as murder. Rest easy, I've never been a patient but when I worked for the state, we had to tour one of the hospitals for my job. I'm sure there are still active hospitals all over the world, some that we probably never hear about especially in other countries.

Hi Brian & Michael! I'm so happy to see all of u together,I also love that u explore & r open minded. I wanted to ask that u go & give Robb from R&K all day some love. He got arrested & has some legal issues ahead. The sad part another explorer is involved & had something to do with what's going on. #FAMSTRONG. 1 thing I love about watching all of u is that ur a small community who should stick together & most of u treat each other like family but to have 1 need support & have another betray that trust this makes so sad.so go show him some love thanks 🏚💙🧡💛💚🏚

[@agent_ninety9]

I've been working in a hospital my whole life and worked in medical records. They are stored for so long and then after 10 years they are disposed. Patients are given the opportunity to come and get their records before they are purged. The reason I'm saying this is you would think that the families these patients particularly the Special Olympics would want those pictures or plaques. That's pretty devastating that they are just left it there to disintegrate

[@SamuelBlack84]

Sometimes, the old patients that used to be in these hospitals come back to squat in them after they're abandoned because they have nowhere else to go which is sad. Just imagine them sitting in the dark silence, alone genuinely wondering where the nurse is with their food. But, nobody is coming

[@deendrew36]

That is sad and surreal.

2 of my favorite exploring channels! Excellent content as always!

[@tamarrajames3590]

Some of your opening stills are absolutely breathtaking. Your abilities with contrast, composition, and framing have been steadily growing, and the effort you put in really shows. I know the paranormal exists, and can be very enticing...but I would like to caution you if you intend on doing much of this specialized study. Just as you always have your mask and gloves...on this kind of exploration you need a different kind of protection, a talisman to prevent anything attaching to you, or feeding on your life energy. You should make friends with an adept Occultist who has enough experience to guide you well and keep you safe. I would also advise you that spirits, or entities from other dimensions which can, and do juxtapose with our own at certain times and places don’t care if it is day or night...if a place provides residence to any of these entities, they/it will always be there without regard for the time of day or night. I do not feel that all the electronic speaking aids and stick figure displays along with heat sensors are needful, and they can distract one from the actual experience of a place. I suggest going in as you normally do, with your empathy and sensitivity open, and welcoming to those positive or beneficial entities only. Carry or wear a protective talisman that is keyed to you alone. Make sure your Occultist is prepared to cleanse you of any stray attachments you may have inadvertently allowed past your guard, or study how to handle this yourself. Upon entering be clear about your intentions, and assure that you mean no harm or disrespect. Do not make a lot of noise, or try to push for some form of manifestation...instead, be open to what you feel within the place, let your feelings be the means of your communication. Do not show fear or give into it, stay calm and centred. The Proper People are good at what you do, with an excellent reputation, and they too are primarily urbex explorers who occasionally venture into paranormal waters. I mean no offence or disrespect by saying these things to you...I have had to undertake more than my share of clean-up following an ill advised venture into the unknown by untrained enthusiasts. I respect your work a great deal, and just wanted to be sure you know how to be properly prepared for this type of exploration. I have been following you for some years now, and I always wish you and your channel success, and a steady growth in subscriptions because I have watched your skill sets improve as you learn more...I also greatly respect your appreciation and empathy for the places you show us...and for those who lived, and sometimes remain in those places. Thank you again, and stay safe out there.🖤🇨🇦

[@scorpion777silvermoon3]

Well said

[@2_2_4_3]

Only way to believe is if you experience it. I have over the years in my parents home and in my current apartment in the past. It's even more believable when you have witnesses who experience the same things or seen similar in my parents home and at the apartment. The first time I saw something was an orb that woke my newborn up. Pitch black in my room and it was a round circle with a golden tint to it that hovered and moved funny and then took off thru the door. One of a few experiences Ive had over 10 years ago as an example.

[@Stevie_B_0828]

The opening sequence was shot/produced very well. Stunningly beautiful footage, music was well matched to the images. As for the location, definitely has the creepy factor going for it, but I was astonished by what all was left behind. Files, pix, personal items in employee lockers, mountain of wheel chairs, clothes, medical supplies and equipment. Just odd to me. Great job guys! Glad to see another installment, looking forward to more. 👍👍

[@techalyzer]

Isn't that constantly interrupting static just a radio receiver scanning through frequencies? That would explain the short words, you just get radio stations and then quickly jump back to the static of another empty frequency.

Okay, I've only made it to 11 minutes so far and enjoying the hell out of this tour. I'm confused, did they have an emergency evacuation? I saw the calendars '08 but that place looks like its been empty for a 100 years and not only all the confidential records was left, it looked like a lot of personal items was just left.... One of co-workers went off on his own and to borrow a phrase we learned in the Navy, I would love to have been there with you guys but it would have been ''nuts to butts'' before I would go off on my own in that place!!!

I noticed at 2:46 Varathane and Benjamin Moore paint. If you EVER see paint named "Cook & Dunn" Please get a close up or a even a pic. That was a paint company located in Lodi NJ until the late 90's or early 2000's. It was sold all over the N.E. I used to sell it at work. Would love to see the paint again. They were bought out by another company then went out of business a few years later.

[@i-vlog1994]

I’m not gonna lie that building looks like it’s going to fall in on itself. When places get that bad and so vandalized I wish local county historical societies would go in and salvage anything of historic value. Those medals belong in a museum or something.

[@KayVolkering]

I really appreciate how respectful you guys have been and very safe as well with gloces and masks etc. I'm happy I found this channel, I will say though, that meter isn't a 'ghost meter' although it might've been marketed as one. It's a K2 meter which measures megnatic fields and it is something spirits either manipulate or manifest with etc. But it's not normally used for that normally just equipment for electricians etc to know where energy sources are in buildings like in walls and stuff. But in those places usually there shouldn't be any power anymore and it won't pick up stuff from the cameras etc if you're far enough away. And as an atheistic spiritual person myself, I'm always very skeptical and only trust my own brain or equipment that can't lie. Now both of them can malfunction so I'd always say or admit in case I'm wrong by like having a brain tumor or whatever when that would be proven to me. But if I don't harm anyone, don't try to indoctrirnate people like religions and ya know, keep it around myself or people who are similar or want to learn about it, then I think I'm quite alright doing what I do. Also, I might be spiritual but I don't believe most mediums, none of the tv mediums cause of fucking course, and idek if psychics are a thing cause I've never met one myself and had someone acurately predict my future soo xD Always try to find a natural explanation first before going to the paranormal side I'd say! p.s. I forgot to mention that those movie tropes of 'make yourself known' is kiiinda ridiculous xD They're human ( normally and i don't believe in demons ) So why don't you just talk to them like normal people. They don't have anything to prove and don't have a reason to prove themselves either so saying 'this is your chance' is really not gonna do much. Instead just say stuff like ' since not many people come here except for maybe other spirits, it might be quite lonely. Maybe you'd like to talk to us? If you do than you could touch this device or maybe speak through the box. ' that kind of a thing. And be respectful but not like 'we have to close off the seance or we'll be murdered ' xD again, humans.

I could have watched another 3 to 4 hours of this one. Your co-worker turned the meter on and I jumped about 3 feet out of my chair and knocked over my glass of tea and I even knew it was going to happen. All of you deserve a huge pat on the back for this one, all the work you put in on making this tour possible shows from the very beginning. I have a question for you, in making this video at a little over 22 minutes, how long was you actually in the facility, did you cover the whole place or do you have any plans to go back? Sorry, I don't know how to ask short questions when I really like something. Thank all of you from those that can't get out there and please keep them coming!!! Your #1 fan from Oklahoma, Just Me
