PLAGUE Quarantine Island Abandoned in Italy

[@christinemccallum6111]

Because of you I went to Romania a couple weeks ago!!! Had a fantastic time!! Thank You 😊

[@lorassorkin]

For being called the most haunted building in the world, it sure didn't seem like you guys felt creeped out. Great explore, thanks!

[@EffortlessLH]

Wow guys! What a privilege to get a secret explore! This Island is a true one off! It certainly is an eerie place, you can only imagine what went on here! Well done for an incredible explore!! Thank you so much xx

[@jane.c.c]

Thank you guys. I actually live here and have always wanted to see that place but no one would dream of going there, so well done. My curiosity has finally been satisfied after many years. You are both incredible. You aren't Houdini's long lost relatives are you? Getting into all the places.. ❤

[@rachelvictoria1991]

In a National Trust house I once learned that cantilevered staircases like that main one are often prone to collapse. In lots of old houses they don’t let you walk on them anymore… for good reason clearly!

[@d.parisi]

What a fascinating place! Even on an abandon island there is graffiti!!! I think some of that old equipment is industrial laundry machinery. I don't think they were making fabric, but rather the fabric on the rollers were deteriorating. Maybe?

[@exohio]

Yes, very old laundry equipment. Possibly Victorian era to very early 1900s. The first machines, with the two large chambers, those are autoclaves. Usually they use autoclaves for medical equipment, but they can be used to sterilize laundry as well. The second tumbling machines with the holes, those are steam washers. The third machine with the fabric rollers, that is an industrial steam press for linens/bed sheets, basically a steam rolling ironing machine. They still use those today actually. So, judging by the large autoclaves in the laundry department, this place was not originally an 'asylum', but a 'sanitorium'. That's when disease would have scared people enough to put their laundry in an autoclave to sterilize it. And according to Wikipedia, it says they used it 'for 'quarantine' for over 100 years, before it was turned into an asylum in 1922 (after the Spanish Flu Pandemic was over), it was an asylum up until the 1960s when it closed. I'm sure it had a very rich history, and many purposes, operating through the first and second world wars, epidemics and pandemics. Opening in the late 1700's, that's 200 years of history there and it still stands.

[@d.parisi]

@@exohio I worked in industrial laundry (and also drycleaning) for 30 years. Our equipment was larger than the ones on the video and so much older it was hard to be 100% sure. Thank you for responding!

[@TB-us7el]

Jess is doing her best serious voice in beginning of this video and I love it 😆

[@denisewatson5295]

What a great explore. Fascinating place. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊 😀.

[@tinaprentice2136]

My parents are born in Italy I should ask my mum if she heard of this place. Great explore Sam and Jess love seeing your older videos ❤

[@flipnawesome5756]

If the doctor was doing what you said, the unfortunate tortured souls would linger. There must be so many scary stories, that’s why no one wanted to take you. Good explore.

[@ThePhasesofaRubyMoon]

Absolutely amazing explore! I want to see this place in person so much but have had to settle for videos of it. Your's has been the best by far! So beautiful. You're always so respectful of the places you explore. This island warrants that doubly so which you didn't not fail to do. Cannot wait to see part 2!! Hope you both are safe and having fun wherever you are now. Much love! 😊💗

[@hahomy]

great video guys enjoyed this thanks for sharing x what an amazing place so beautiful x

[@tammyasbury6517]

This was very interesting,nice to learn about places like this

[@CharlesCornell-q4t]

From Michigan USA You are the best explorers on utube, keep up the good work

[@sylviamiller9047]

Great exploration 😮❤

[@kelleycolvin5632]

You’re so brave. I’m so afraid of heights

[@nigelstringerNVS]

Loving this video Sam n Jess. Xx

[@scootyboorat608]

The boiler room you encountered at the start was for generating steam for the radiators throughout the building to heat rooms.

[@charlottef87]

Wow!! 😍 Absolutely stunning place. Best urban explorers in the game 🔥

[@bethdoublekickchick8007]

I remember when you guys went here, thanks for the trip down memory lane 🤘

[@stevebennett1584]

Another cool explore guys. More Jess-intros please? Be well you 2. Cheers!!

[@juliewalls3118]

Sad island with plenty of history.Finders Beepers did this a couple of years ago, great explore.

[@toddhill4243]

well just the whole place with the back story. your very brave

[@marilynwargo6288]

Mar here in Colorado Rockies! Hello hello! I have missed you all so much! Sounds like a great explore!💙🌸🌙🐌🍁

[@MattandBecExplores-lt9vf]

Wow! This is incredible! Great explore 😮👍

[@flolot]

the room at 4.00 min is a washing room, big washing machines driven by a central motor or a steam engine and belts. the shaft is running true different rooms maybe with driving other machines by belt like textile mach

[@karenfountain1352]

This was outstanding guy's 👏 ❤🙏

[@sueneilen4526]

Wow amazing great video thanks

[@marykaminski7791]

Can’t believe you guys went up the water tower. 😮. But that was really Cool ❤

[@chrisblack8390]

That place is gorgeous! Those big cylinders looked like something they would kill people with. That machine with the fabric on it is an ironing press i think. For ironing all the bedding. The fabric used to go all the way across the machine. Then the sheets roll thru it an is ironed. Thank you. I loved that place.

[@lorassorkin]

I was thinking the same about the industrial iron. I've seen those tumblers with holes before - if I recall correctly, they are for laundry washing too.

[@hollypierce3076]

Yes I worked in an industrial laundry before, washing and pressing oil plant uniforms, that is a fabric press.

[@ThePhasesofaRubyMoon]

I was thinking the big cylinders might have been industrial dryers for linens and clothes and such. Cool to learn about the press! Cannot imagine how hot it would have gotten in there!

[@roxyjames123]

The staircase reminds me of the film labyrinth

[@jlaws007BD]

Due to all the plague victims being burnt, the ground there is supposed to be 50/50 earth/human ash 💀 👻

[@davidn3394]

Yes that is true sadly.

[@blairwarren5418]

That is why they never dig up graves or disturb the dirt certain years they were buried. Some plagues stay in the dirt forever.

[@SusanMowe]

Omg not seen this one before . Horrific !! 😮

[@janscorza7549]

The first area you went into looks like the laundry. The big machines for pressing sheets, the big boilers for heating water.

[@Pure-Luck447]

Looks like they might eventually repair the main building and tower

[@bridgetward5896]

28 minutes and 32 seconds. But you have to do it very slow motion

[@annmcilvane]

Hi sam and jess ❤️

[@lindatimmons3675]

What a place.......

[@IcelanderUSer]

Those giant oven type things were to fumigate mattresses I think.

[@Jendarhan64]

Deliciously creepy! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@markcherriman6136]

Imagine finding a skull .

[@signal98]

❤

[@geraldjackson7652]

It looks like a very old tanning both.😊

[@richardsmith6074]

Bravo! Good tour. Oh yeah Kool aid couple! Gone with your bad self! 🐟🍷

[@bridgetward5896]

Please let me know is it a ghost

[@trevorwills3356]

The image you see is actually Sam himself being filmed by Jess.

[@davidfield6223]

You should make Sam colbey stay her

[@davidn3394]

I'm sure most haunted visited here many years ago it was full of rats.

[@jodyhammett6292]

Those long tees with all the holes in it that was washing machines industrial the military Houston the ones that's got the big doors on what's the heat the water that was industrial washing machines they were they also use the big heaters it pulled heat in and would run two dryers that was more or less at 1st and military Bass that's what it looks like to me before is was ASI Leon

[@Volf1916]

The fact that the island have nothing of the actual "Haunting" or events that is claimed to make it haunted, it is just more click bait fake "adventures" that amount to nothing but old buildings falling down.

[@Dawn5048Batchelor]

Popular visit spot, shiey, matt and checkmate were their few days ago, lol.👍😖😁🕊🦘

[@bridgetward5896]

Hello, Sam and Jesse. I was looking through your videis there. Someone else with you when Hello, Sam and Jesse, I looked at your videos. There is one of them it is called mysterious abandoned house in the woods untouched. If you look at 2832 minutes. Who is that man? He is peeping his head round the door. R, is he with you? Do it in slow motion. You will see him is he with you please tell me thank you

[@helengaley1256]

❤

[@Cueman222]

Looking forward to Part 2. Man that place is very dodgy to be going up those steps. Ninjas for sure.❤👍

[@deniseroe5891]

I saw a Ghost Hunters years ago on this island. Of course if was in the dark with a lot of hype. Nice to see it in the day. I am jealous of your travels.

[@tomgrant3893]

Love Jesse's intro, for someone so shy, she sure knows her stuff. looking forward to part 2.

[@bridgetward5896]

The video was called mysterious abandoned house in the woods. Untouched it is a year ago. 28 minutes and 32 seconds. You will see the man. Put his head around the corner of the door. Please let me know if this is a ghost or is he with you? Thank you.

[@Friskee62]

I do believe that that guys from the tv show, GHOST ADVENTURES was on that island and did a show from there. They shot at night with NO lighting...

[@greatlambrini8722]

How the heck did vandals get there then?

[@RinnRuannan]

It is so striking the apparent beauty of the place with the centuries of trauma and tragedy, suffering and death. It is a testament to the architectural and constructive integrity of the time that amidst the decay of disuse there is so much still there to wonder at. I'd love to see an overnight there with Karl. Thank you for this!

[@bridgetward5896]

Good videos

[@liacanio5948]

Tétrico lugar, con semejante historia detrás. Saludos chicos

[@sheilad83]

#Sam and #Jess, if I've never said it before I'll say it now, y'all have some sick photography skillz! Beautiful and amazing shots my friends! Great explore and hats off to you both for having the BALLZ to go there! 💜

[@benbaker2965]

Very interesting explore. Do you know how old the structures still standing are?

[@leonielson7138]

Only 20 plague victims are buried on Poveglia Island, and it was used as a navy hospital, not an asylum or an "end of life" hospital. There's no history of paranormal activity on the island, and the reason you paid extra was because the boat driver would be fined if you injured yourselves, the other drivers didn't want to take you because they didn't want the liability. The hexagonal island is artificial and was a cannon fortification. Far from thinking it's a cursed island, the descendants of the islanders are petitioning the government to let them turn it into a tourist park. Ownership is currently under debate.

[@charlesbeardsmug1553]

I'm not sure what's more disturbing, Plague Island or this guy's nasty, tangled dreads.

[@Kim-J312]

Those 2 large cylinders shaped things look like the crematorium they would use for the bodies 😳. The plague ☠️ , omg wash your hands, clothes everything your wearing

[@jlaws007BD]

I believe those 1st were the boilers, followed by the furnaces. Then again Italians may have built thing's differently than 🇺🇸 🤔

[@geraldjackson7652]

It's Terrible you only had 2 hrs you really can't search thoroughly with no more time than that. It's a large place.😊

[@toddhill4243]

27 minutes in..the line of toilets down those hallway looking rooms. what the hell man

[@gazzer883]

The big drums were probably for laundry drying .

[@davidfield6223]

You should make Sam colbey stay her

[@divaofdecobling8040]

Can't wait

[@dazyamaha]

When did you go here guys the weather looks mint 👌

[@alisonmills8515]

How do you not know those are incinerators?

[@daphnerosemoon9843]

Brilliant ! Thank you Sam and Jess 💖💖⭐⭐💐💐🏆

[@carolali8851]

Great explore, you covered a lot of territory in 2 hours. At 3:00 it made me think of a tanning bed but then I was wondering if it had been used as a sterilizing unit by putting a rack in and sterilizing sheets, etc. Something like that would be needed in any confinement/hospital type facility. I found something that looks like it but it's for food, under Industrial Food Sterilizer (wish we could paste pictures in here).

[@evelynmayton470]

absolutely fantastic, great music, introduction and camera work.

[@helik22]

I missed the premiere but this is amaaaazing! So many wishes to visit here, you guys did!
