I worked in the home for a number if years in the late 90s I worked in at mirin predominately but have worked all over the home x found it interesting that tracie picked up people sitting in the chapel area for a time this was used as a dining area x footsteps are notoriously common one night we rung the police because we believed there were squatters in the attic area when they investigated they told us if anything it was rats aye with size 8 boots on lol it's believed there is underground tunnels leading from paisley abbey to many building around paisley for the monks to visit without being in public so monks being present is very likely x there were 5 units 4 in the main building and 1 off the basement x this building is very eerie and lots of unexplainable things happened chasing residents who disappear do a bed check to see who's unaccounted for only to find no one was yet more than one person saw the apparition mists would form and fill corridors and noises from empty rooms x defo think some one to guide you in locations as large as this would be a huge benefits in my experience the chapel was spooky but it didn't feel sinister x
There's one tunnel that goes from the RAI to the RAH my dad walked it many times when he worked as a porter and later a telephonist .. my mum was a nurse/ward sister for a long time and St Margaret's and Barshaw too. I had my tonsils and adenoids removed at the RAI when I was 5yrs old then much MUCH later (1990's) I worked as a hairdresser in the part that was opened as a care home I absolutely hated the big corridor with the chapel in the middle going towards the Mirrin wing. The rooms had a very heavy feeling and I dont know when it was done but the whole upper most part of the building was locked up which was used extensively to treat soldiers wounded in ww11 the nurses would talk about hearing shouting for a nurse or screams of pain especially at night. St Margaret's just up the back on the hill had a resident 'Grey Lady' who was seen mostly on the top floor where the changing rooms were .. the nurses wouldn't go up unaccompanied.
I worked as a Porter in the RAI. It was strange that after the hour mark when checking out the old Chapel the background music changed to a Church Organ. As a Porter, one of our security duties was to accompany the hospital cashier around as he emptied the public phones. Can`t remember his name but, he was a small, slightly disabled old man who had a severe limp and hunchbacked. Most days during his Dinner break he would go to the old Hospital Chapel and sit a play the big Church Organ. It was nice to listen to but, also quite spooky so you can imagine the `feeling` I got at that point of your video. Having worked there I can tell you it was just as spooky when on the night shift. Especially taking a Corpse over to the Mortuary in the wee small hours. I also remember those big hinges from the Chapel door. May I suggest that if ever you check out the old place again, try and find someone who used to work there. They would know their way around. Keep up the good work. Neil.
+Neil OGormley It's unlikely that we visit the same place twice. Only on rare occasions. But if we do you're certainly more than welcome to come along and provide first hand experiences! Thank you for your input!
Finally! I've been waiting eagerly for guys to make another explore. I LOVE the music you play as well. I hope you don't take so long for the next one......and thanx for sharing.
Yay! thank u so much for shooting this video, really enjoyed it, so happy to see you guys back again , was wondering where u had got to lol have a great xmas! Xx
Myself and others were in here last week, and we noticed a weird bang after I said 'Its funny that nothing creepy or scary has happened yet!'..We left and decided to come back a few days later, whilst walking about in the abbey unit, we asked if anyone was home to then be greeted by a bang, we repeated ourselves and got a bang this time, louder and closer. We wandered around the building with our mouths shut and we heard no more noise, we ended up back upstairs and then announced our presence to be funny and we heard and even louder bang that then got even closer to us whilst we ran. It was really thrilling and so cool, would definitely suggest you guys go back and focus on the the whole of the upstairs. Especially the abbey unit!
The Abbey ward was one of the scariest to work in even when it was it and looked good , we had lots of weird experiences in that ward, and the Tannahill !!! The coats !!!! got me thinking now about all our experience's in there we had the police out on lots of nights there was always something happening in there.
Great work! Super creepy location. The attic was particularly disturbing. What were all those little hallways for?? Basement was pretty disturbing too! Celebrities Tina and doggy side kick! Good to see. Loving the disturbing, creepy stuff! Happy Holiday's, and Thank You.
Place dates back way further than the 1900s. There's a bit up the roof that's only accessible by crossing a metal bridge. You don't really appreciate how tall the building is until you are right up on the roof. The bridge is in 2 parts and we got to it through a skylight in the roof. One part is ancient and rusting and a little shaky. The bit that actually has a drop below it is fairly modern and solid. Got a nice pic of the drop from it whilst I was up. I found a Metro freebie paper date 16th February this year. Did yous find the old safe? We found it in a room that looked like it could have been a doctor's consulting room. There might be some really old medication in it.
Love people that are interested in abandoned Scotland and all if the mysteries the buildings hold, as being Scottish myself I love that people are exploring our old buildings and bringing back the past. You should defiantly check out up here in the highlands there are loads of creepy building that are said to be haunted 👻
Thanks for the great episode - creepy! James ... your startling gaps of air are the best! Happy holidays, Haunted Scotland team ... we look forward to your next adventure (fans in Western Canada).
Thank you for this peek at Scotland. I am an American, but my ancestors came from Scotland. The family name is Guild. If I lived there, I would clean out all these beautiful old sites.
At 15:38, when the torch light was in the tunnel, it hit a black shape that was huddled in the tunnel, it wasn't there when the light returned. It looked like the shape of a person in a fetal position. When you heard something falling, it sounded plastic and like it had been dropped or thrown from a small height, maybe bounced against a wall or the steps.
that area when i worked there was where most sightings of the grey lady and also a bearded man would appear, i seen a nurse i worked with one night who was uncontrollable after seeing the bearded man down the tunnel on her way to the patients kitchen.
Love this, awesome work! The footsteps are creepy and so loud. That evp was weird too! i would rate this higher after seeing all the footage and evidence put together. And lol at the trolly scene! Shame there wasn't another one, could have had a race down the corridors haha :D Look forward to another adventure :-)
:D The footsteps were defo coming from above us! You always say about rating it higher once you've seen it! lol There was two trollies but i think we would have to drag the other one from the floor above down to the basement and no doubt one of us would have ended up in A & E! Don't go putting ideas into my head though! haha Yes will be in touch I can't wait for next one too :D
I'm 16 and just joined a paranormal investigation team that my cousin made. I haven't been on an investigation yet, but my cousin is talking about going here. although I am quite young paranormal things have been a passion since I was very young. :-) :-)
Just got back from having a wee look round the place. Was a bit para about going too far in since there's only one way in and out just now. Place is huge, would be really easy to get lost in it. Noticed there was lots of modern light fittings, switches and radiators.
I live just around the corner from the RAI and my great gran was in the nursing home there. She used to talk to a nurse called Claire when i visited but there was no one there! Her room was at the corner of Abbey Wing and the tower was her toilet. I definately believe it is haunted. I am a paranormal investigator and empath and would love it if you could give me a shout next time you go xxx
I worked with Claire on night duty a great nurse and hard worker. seems only like yesterday after watching this video, it was weird to see it in that state , last time i was in the building it looked really good it just been decorated, the place actually had quite a majestic feel about it up on the wings , but as you headed away to the kitchen area it was very scary and not a good feeling from the place at all.
Hi, I worked in tht building for many years!!!! the most haunted part is upstairs in the old chapel near the abbey unit. I remember stuff from when I was a child happening as my mum worked there 25 years ago.
lindsey woods It must be sad for you to watch the video and see the state it's currently in. We would have loved to rewind back 25 years and see how it looked back then in operation.
I worked there as a porter from mid-70s till 81. Loved my time there. When I `get off the bus` I think I will go back and visit. Any Paranormal investigators that return after I have passed, just ask for Neil. I will accomodate.
2 nights ago I found that there is still an easy to access way in. If you come in to the ground off Calside and go right to where the new fence was put up to block off the bowling green side there's a huge gap in the fence, so no climbing or squeezing through gaps. Walk along the bowling green side of the building and you'll find a window that has had the Sitex ripped off. I don't think workies visit the site very often so that way in should be available for a while.
Yey someone found my entrance! The door next to the window was open for quite a while but went back a couple of weeks ago and the window had be opened a tiny bit.. Opened it a bit more :) There was a couple of woman there we went, making sure everything was still sealed but didn't find that bit :)
Do you still do these projects? And would you take poeple with you if they were interested? I'm wondering because I would like to visit scotland somewhere next year and these videos are so fascinating, they give me shivers!
Love the work guys keep it up, This place is bad in the day time never mind at night, we are sure there is a spirit in the wards as well, that felling that some one is behind you all the time.
My gran and grandpa recently moved to the flats right across from it. I find it quite eary (even the house too) . I like zooming in on my phone to see if any things there lol
I read that dragging sounds have been heard coming from the empty attic and that it is supposed to be haunted by a grey lady. Also I heard that some of the beds would move by themselves. My dad told me that he was in there sick many, many years ago but the only weird thing he ever saw was a patient on the same ward with a bad temper who would throw the contents of his potty at the nurses.
When did you make this video? I live across the road from the old RAI. A big chunk of it is now flats but there's still a huge bit of the old building that's still disused. It's a shame that most of its old stain-glassed windows are smashed. You can still access most of the old building through the Calside entrance but I think all the ways in now are blocked off with Sitex. Think you would need a crowbar now to get in. Because most of the windows now have sitex blocking them there wouldn't be much in the way natural light available. Heard the nursing home bit got shut down because it was a total shite-hole and there was a lot of neglect of the patients.
Is this place safe? Me and my friend were gonna go just to explore and venture into abandoned places but now it's supposedly haunted which I never knew, like will there be any bad forces there or spirits that would hurt us?
Reece McCallum Naturally we can't say that this place is safe and that it's safe enough for you to venture into, but I guess we could say that it was one of the more safer places that we've been to lol.
I was disappointed to see that I could not get into any of the Bangour buildings, but walked about there on my own as well as the fever hospital in Thornton. I ain't a scaredy cat!
Well, I could not get into the building. It is all boarded up. However, walking around the outside itself gave me the creeps. Probably not as bad as my outside exploration of Rosslynlee Hospital (Previously known as "Midlothian and Peebles County Asylum") That place can give you the creeps just walking around it. I went into a building, but the floor was pretty unstable, floorboards missing. So, I went back out, as I did not want to fall through. I am not the lightest person on the planet either!
NataliaEnchantix Rosslynlee to our knowledge has high security. In regards to Royal Alexandra I guess it's just your luck. We wen't 3 times. Night 2 there was no access so wen't home. The 1st and 3rd night we found a window with the panel off :D
We found a store room that we think belonged to the nursing home. You access it from the outside. In it was giant bags of unused 5ml medicine spoons and 1 litre glass bottles that were still in the box. We want to go back with torches because the store room is massive but one of us had to hold the entrance open and that give it only a little natural light.
that store is near the kitchen they used to store like bed pans, and other equipment , it was a bad place to have it as you had to go all the way down the stairs and along the huge corridor to the kitchen and the store very scary for the girls that worked there at night , they were glad when i was on duty as they had someone to protect them i have never felt so wanted lol. they were a great team to work with and we had a lot of laughs and hard work in that building.
I worked in the RAi as a nursing assistant until its closure in 1986 and l can assure yo all it was haunted l saw the grey lady on several occasions heard strange footsteps strange noises during the night but l loved my years there y
I worked here when it was a nursing home late 80's it was defo haunted i worked night shift and experienced all sorts as did other staff. There are tunnels underneath i went down them with the police one night amazing to see. The kitchen was the worst place for me defo haunted there was a long corridor you walked to get to the kitchen heading away from the main building.
@@ScrappedInScotland There were homeless guys living underneath coming thru a trap door in the kitchen they stole food and other stuff from the nursing home and they mostly did it at night, I was the only male working at night and I was the one that dealt with the issue, some of the girls ran screaming and crying from the kitchen, they seen a gray man , it was actually a tramp coming thru the hatch at night, I went down the tunnels with the police we founds mattresses, food and all sorts of stuff , the trap door was sealed and end of problem. The tunnels actually take you all the way to paisley Abbey.
I know You meant no harm and I really liked the video, You all seam like such nice wonderful people "Truly" . And first, I'm so glad to read You are (have by now) getting booty's for Dream ! I was so mad the whole video thinking of that poor little pooch (because glass and sharp objects and spiders are not the only concern,chemicals and asbestos) in such a dangerous place that it took from the video for Me. But in retrospect it must have come out ok or something would have been said. I got nothing against bringing a Dog period, great move and I bet She had a ball ! Just protect Her too. I would love to meet and participate with a neat group like You all, dog and all ! Sorry for the rant,with all respect !
+dieselrotor PS- I subscribed of course ! Oh hey too. In the tunnels where You got lost a little. We found these really cool flashing red lights at a dollar store about the size of an air freshener and bought 12 for $12.00+tax that we set at places along the way and collect on the way out. You can set them to flash or steady. Peace and be safe !
my mum and aunt both worked in there. They have both told me there experiences with the paranormal, my aunt told me how she saw an old man with a beard and waist coat, she thought he was a visitor and because there was a big door with a code on it she thought he needed in, she went away for a bit to do something, but when she came back he was gone. she told me that it was strange because the doors were very loud and he couldn't go back the way because there was another door. he just vanished
Carly, who was your mum and aunt i may know them, when i worked there it was Mary Wright who was in charge at night and Jean who was the senior staff nurse, great ladies to work with and all the other people who worked on nights with me.
it was Susan and Heather Cambell, my mum worked their twice. once around 1990-93 then again around 2001 ish but she was moncrieff by then. the 2nd time she worked in coats wing
one day me and my sister and her friend were in our garden and then my sister went to get toys from my room (I was like 6-9 I don't remember) but she came screaming down stairs saying that she saw ''the grey lady'' but I don't know if she was telling the truth but yeah
I really like the way that ya'll go about your investigation etc but I believe that some people are talking way too much and loud when others ask for them to be quiet and they should respect that, but it's hard to investigate when someone is exploring and the other is doing the totally opposite. But anyways I love y'all's energy and friendliness.
I live round the corner and Im amazed the neighbours didn't call the police, as they are hyper vigilant round there.....even when innocently walking your pooch round the old building ;) I enjoy urbex but you gotta get some kevlar "ultra boots" for the dog - my dog comes on all my explores and between the glass and the needles they are a great investment. After all, dogs are useful for sensing either security, rats or more unexplained goings on :) Enjoy your next s'plore :)
Hi there, is there anywhere I could find a floor plan, the place is like a maze lol, was here couple of weeks ago and going to go back soon, hopefully vetted prepared :)
+Sean Mulholland No idea about floor plans for the building unfortunately. I guess you just have to roam about in the dark literally lol, like everyone else. Perhaps try google or local library :)
@37:51, when your team separates like this Walkie-Talkies or some similar device would be ideal. In case one party hears something, contact the other party to see if it was them.
Hey I love the video I'm thinking if checking out some places could you name some in the Stirling area please and when I make videos I will be sure to credit this channel :)
+Saul Preston It's all good. The dog owners have or are planning on purchasing some specialised paw protection for the dog for future locations where there may be risk. Thanks.
Amazing video amazing channel you should check out Strathmartine Mental Asylum Dundee very creepy and you will defo find some paranormal activity ive been in a few times and have seen some scary stuff defo would make great video;)
Still accessible just went in tonight, someone has managed to actually bend the fence right open so you can just walk in, one you turn the corner left, left again, on the left side of this tower block theres actually a door thats fell over and you can just walk right in Didn't feel much to be honest or get anything But we did find that trolly haha and a doll hanging on a wall by its skirt
Sorry about that. We're hoping that UA-cam will provide an automatic subtitles feature in the near future as it's too difficult to put subtitles throughout the full video, especially at an hour and a half long lol. Guess that's the issue with online... many people have very strong accents or speak a different language altogether! Hope you're well and thanks :)
Considering a Wee look inside here. How do u get in without climbing fence etc. I went to it once with friends but we didn't go inside. Just looked around outside. But we climbed over the fence to get in. Would love to get some photographs of the inside. Going back soon so hopefully find a better way to get in other than climbing fences and looking dodger lol.
I was there yesterday with a few friends and we got in but it seems they are closing up all ways to get in fast so I didn't give away how to get in that much in my video in case they see it and lock it up. If you have been before then if you watch my video I'm sure you'll make out where the way in is :)
I would not go i worked there for years and still didn't get to know the place it is a maze, when we called the police for noises coming from the kitchen etc i had to take the cops around they didn't have a clue, the crew that made this film i am sure must have been shown around to make this video as no one knows about the tunnels underneath you would need to be shown that.
Orbs are a tricky thing. We only highlight them if they come across as very impressive now as during filming on large locations for sometimes a total of 6 to 7 hours, we catch all sorts of flying debris, most of which we choose not to highlight unless like we say... the movement of the orb is suspicious or very impressive. :)
Naturally all 7 of us in the video don't 'all' have the dog there with us. The owner of the dog prefers to bring the dog for a couple of reasons and none of the rest of us personally have anything against it. I think we are looking into getting covers for the dogs feet though so it's all good :) Thanks for watching though :)
dont just walk through most of ur hunts in silence..u need 2 invite the spirits more..talk out about the history while asking out..get angry with them if they dont respond...
Apologies for late reply. Given the sheer size of this location, we all were a bit guilty of roaming around more then we usually do... however there are many times where we do our best to communicate with spirits in this video more towards the end. Not sure how we feel about being aggressive to a huge extent with spirits yet but it may come to that lol. Thanks :)
Just do what every other photographer and explorer does: stay away from it and don't go near it as much as is physically possible. I guess so long as one isn't stealing metal pipes and sawing and hammering away at things a delicate roam around shouldn't be too risky on that front.
Kinda irresponsible to take your child in there when there's so much disturbed asbestos laying around. Hopefully he is alright but could end up with lung cancer down the line. Hey, you got a cool video though haha.
I worked in the home for a number if years in the late 90s I worked in at mirin predominately but have worked all over the home x found it interesting that tracie picked up people sitting in the chapel area for a time this was used as a dining area x footsteps are notoriously common one night we rung the police because we believed there were squatters in the attic area when they investigated they told us if anything it was rats aye with size 8 boots on lol it's believed there is underground tunnels leading from paisley abbey to many building around paisley for the monks to visit without being in public so monks being present is very likely x there were 5 units 4 in the main building and 1 off the basement x this building is very eerie and lots of unexplainable things happened chasing residents who disappear do a bed check to see who's unaccounted for only to find no one was yet more than one person saw the apparition mists would form and fill corridors and noises from empty rooms x defo think some one to guide you in locations as large as this would be a huge benefits in my experience the chapel was spooky but it didn't feel sinister x
Thank you for your info on the location. We didn't know the church was once used as a cafe! Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks x

Finally! I've been waiting eagerly for guys to make another explore. I LOVE the music you play as well. I hope you don't take so long for the next one......and thanx for sharing.
We hope we don't take so long in the next one too!! lol
Well worth the wait.....
Yay! thank u so much for shooting this video, really enjoyed it, so happy to see you guys back again , was wondering where u had got to lol have a great xmas! Xx
Yes this video certainly took a long time to put together! Hopefully then next one will be carried out a lot quicker!! Thanks!

Great video can't wait for next!!
Thanks! Looking into it already! :)
What are the chances of joining you one night? Would love to come and get involved one time, would be aweosome!
I live just around the corner from the RAI and my great gran was in the nursing home there. She used to talk to a nurse called Claire when i visited but there was no one there! Her room was at the corner of Abbey Wing and the tower was her toilet. I definately believe it is haunted.

Been here plenty of times as I live around the corner
A close relative of mine lives in the renovated part attached to the building....I shall be joining there soon, who doesn't love a right good scare?
another great video, and what a location.

Hi im intrested In paranormal and abandoned places I would love to do the stuff that you guys do excellent work
2 nights ago I found that there is still an easy to access way in. If you come in to the ground off Calside and go right to where the new fence was put up to block off the bowling green side there's a huge gap in the fence, so no climbing or squeezing through gaps. Walk along the bowling green side of the building and you'll find a window that has had the Sitex ripped off. I don't think workies visit the site very often so that way in should be available for a while.
Yey someone found my entrance! The door next to the window was open for quite a while but went back a couple of weeks ago and the window had be opened a tiny bit.. Opened it a bit more :) There was a couple of woman there we went, making sure everything was still sealed but didn't find that bit :)
Great video I know this old building great work
Do you still do these projects? And would you take poeple with you if they were interested? I'm wondering because I would like to visit scotland somewhere next year and these videos are so fascinating, they give me shivers!
We are currently experiencing issues within the team so explorations are stopped for the time being, sadly!
Love the work guys keep it up, This place is bad in the day time never mind at night, we are sure there is a spirit in the wards as well, that felling that some one is behind you all the time.
was a chef here approx '84" i never saw any ghosts, but it was a great job. the "patients" would wander into the kitchen constantly. always hilarious.
My gran and grandpa recently moved to the flats right across from it. I find it quite eary (even the house too) . I like zooming in on my phone to see if any things there lol
Hamilton rowen union court?
I read that dragging sounds have been heard coming from the empty attic and that it is supposed to be haunted by a grey lady. Also I heard that some of the beds would move by themselves. My dad told me that he was in there sick many, many years ago but the only weird thing he ever saw was a patient on the same ward with a bad temper who would throw the contents of his potty at the nurses.
The noise captured on the voice recorder when you were in the church sounds like stop it.
Only just found you & loving your vids 👍🏻👍🏻
When did you make this video? I live across the road from the old RAI. A big chunk of it is now flats but there's still a huge bit of the old building that's still disused. It's a shame that most of its old stain-glassed windows are smashed. You can still access most of the old building through the Calside entrance but I think all the ways in now are blocked off with Sitex. Think you would need a crowbar now to get in. Because most of the windows now have sitex blocking them there wouldn't be much in the way natural light available. Heard the nursing home bit got shut down because it was a total shite-hole and there was a lot of neglect of the patients.
Is this place safe? Me and my friend were gonna go just to explore and venture into abandoned places but now it's supposedly haunted which I never knew, like will there be any bad forces there or spirits that would hurt us?
Reece McCallum Naturally we can't say that this place is safe and that it's safe enough for you to venture into, but I guess we could say that it was one of the more safer places that we've been to lol.
Alright lol I just dont want any ghosts throwing stuff or attacking us ahah
I accept the dare. Found the address. Hope to explore it soon! :D
I was disappointed to see that I could not get into any of the Bangour buildings, but walked about there on my own as well as the fever hospital in Thornton. I ain't a scaredy cat!
Well, I could not get into the building. It is all boarded up. However, walking around the outside itself gave me the creeps.
Probably not as bad as my outside exploration of Rosslynlee Hospital (Previously known as "Midlothian and Peebles County Asylum") That place can give you the creeps just walking around it. I went into a building, but the floor was pretty unstable, floorboards missing. So, I went back out, as I did not want to fall through. I am not the lightest person on the planet either!
NataliaEnchantix Rosslynlee to our knowledge has high security. In regards to Royal Alexandra I guess it's just your luck. We wen't 3 times. Night 2 there was no access so wen't home. The 1st and 3rd night we found a window with the panel off :D
It is a shame that such a great building has been left to fall into such a terrible state.
absolutely loved the video but can you tell me what the soundtrack is its great love atmospheric music
All music used is listed in the end credits :)
Watch at 5:46 left side of hall. Seems to be a white light or mist that goes by very fast. Or possibly a reflection. Watch it a few times.
Yep I also seen it .. I put it down to camera flare say it moved with the camera .x
We found a store room that we think belonged to the nursing home. You access it from the outside. In it was giant bags of unused 5ml medicine spoons and 1 litre glass bottles that were still in the box. We want to go back with torches because the store room is massive but one of us had to hold the entrance open and that give it only a little natural light.
that store is near the kitchen they used to store like bed pans, and other equipment , it was a bad place to have it as you had to go all the way down the stairs and along the huge corridor to the kitchen and the store very scary for the girls that worked there at night , they were glad when i was on duty as they had someone to protect them i have never felt so wanted lol. they were a great team to work with and we had a lot of laughs and hard work in that building.
I worked in the RAi as a nursing assistant until its closure in 1986 and l can assure yo all it was haunted l saw the grey lady on several occasions heard strange footsteps strange noises during the night but l loved my years there
y
Loads of orbs,where they were messing about in the trolley lol xx
Question for the group. Did you do an asbestos check before your investigations?
I worked here when it was a nursing home late 80's it was defo haunted i worked night shift and experienced all sorts as did other staff. There are tunnels underneath i went down them with the police one night amazing to see. The kitchen was the worst place for me defo haunted there was a long corridor you walked to get to the kitchen heading away from the main building.
Would love to have seen the tunnels. Why did you go down them with the police?
@@ScrappedInScotland There were homeless guys living underneath coming thru a trap door in the kitchen they stole food and other stuff from the nursing home and they mostly did it at night, I was the only male working at night and I was the one that dealt with the issue, some of the girls ran screaming and crying from the kitchen, they seen a gray man , it was actually a tramp coming thru the hatch at night, I went down the tunnels with the police we founds mattresses, food and all sorts of stuff , the trap door was sealed and end of problem. The tunnels actually take you all the way to paisley Abbey.
very good
I know You meant no harm and I really liked the video, You all seam like such nice wonderful people "Truly" . And first, I'm so glad to read You are (have by now) getting booty's for Dream ! I was so mad the whole video thinking of that poor little pooch (because glass and sharp objects and spiders are not the only concern,chemicals and asbestos) in such a dangerous place that it took from the video for Me.
But in retrospect it must have come out ok or something would have been said. I got nothing against bringing a Dog period, great move and I bet She had a ball ! Just protect Her too. I would love to meet and participate with a neat group like You all, dog and all ! Sorry for the rant,with all respect !
+dieselrotor
PS- I subscribed of course ! Oh hey too. In the tunnels where You got lost a little. We found these really cool flashing red lights at a dollar store about the size of an air freshener and bought 12 for $12.00+tax that we set at places along the way and collect on the way out. You can set them to flash or steady. Peace and be safe !
my mum and aunt both worked in there. They have both told me there experiences with the paranormal, my aunt told me how she saw an old man with a beard and waist coat, she thought he was a visitor and because there was a big door with a code on it she thought he needed in, she went away for a bit to do something, but when she came back he was gone. she told me that it was strange because the doors were very loud and he couldn't go back the way because there was another door. he just vanished
Carly, who was your mum and aunt i may know them, when i worked there it was Mary Wright who was in charge at night and Jean who was the senior staff nurse, great ladies to work with and all the other people who worked on nights with me.
it was Susan and Heather Cambell, my mum worked their twice. once around 1990-93 then again around 2001 ish but she was moncrieff by then. the 2nd time she worked in coats wing
It doesn't take long for the street rats to wreck the place.
one day me and my sister and her friend were in our garden and then my sister went to get toys from my room (I was like 6-9 I don't remember) but she came screaming down stairs saying that she saw ''the grey lady'' but I don't know if she was telling the truth but yeah
I really like the way that ya'll go about your investigation etc but I believe that some people are talking way too much and loud when others ask for them to be quiet and they should respect that, but it's hard to investigate when someone is exploring and the other is doing the totally opposite. But anyways I love y'all's energy and friendliness.
You guys should investigate the Glasgow royal infirmary its meant to be haunted
love what ur all doing..would luv 2 join u all...been a believer since i saw 1....respect..helen
Love the vids!! 👍😀 so very cool!!! 👻😵‼️😂😂😎
ghost hunted myself....try all sittin in a circle n ask out more x
I think that the 2 women who were in the basement walkways were getting a little touchy and getting their hands warmed...LoL
I live round the corner and Im amazed the neighbours didn't call the police, as they are hyper vigilant round there.....even when innocently walking your pooch round the old building ;) I enjoy urbex but you gotta get some kevlar "ultra boots" for the dog - my dog comes on all my explores and between the glass and the needles they are a great investment. After all, dogs are useful for sensing either security, rats or more unexplained goings on :) Enjoy your next s'plore :)
Hi there, is there anywhere I could find a floor plan, the place is like a maze lol, was here couple of weeks ago and going to go back soon, hopefully vetted prepared :)
+Sean Mulholland No idea about floor plans for the building unfortunately. I guess you just have to roam about in the dark literally lol, like everyone else. Perhaps try google or local library :)
@37:51, when your team separates like this Walkie-Talkies or some similar device would be ideal.
In case one party hears something, contact the other party to see if it was them.
Hey I love the video I'm thinking if checking out some places could you name some in the Stirling area please and when I make videos I will be sure to credit this channel :)
of*
Numerous orbs in the trolley scene.
I would love to visit a building like this. Don't know how to go about it tho.
i have a few pics I took of the inside in a wee door! above the door was scratched the words HELP ME. the previous night....the words were not there
haha good one
I don't think they should take the dog in because its abandoned and there could be sharp objects in there or needles about on the ground
+Saul Preston It's all good. The dog owners have or are planning on purchasing some specialised paw protection for the dog for future locations where there may be risk. Thanks.
Amazing video amazing channel you should check out Strathmartine Mental Asylum Dundee very creepy and you will defo find some paranormal activity ive been in a few times and have seen some scary stuff defo would make great video;)
Still accessible just went in tonight, someone has managed to actually bend the fence right open so you can just walk in, one you turn the corner left, left again, on the left side of this tower block theres actually a door thats fell over and you can just walk right in
Didn't feel much to be honest or get anything
But we did find that trolly haha and a doll hanging on a wall by its skirt
+Sean Markie Your hair is SO COOL ;)
Is there any way to get access into it just now?? Like has anyone been in there in the past few weeks??
so I want to go with a friend but I don't know where it is, can someone help me please?
hi can you still get in and is the building still there?
Was interesting, but I feel subtitles should have stayed consistent throughout the video.
Sorry about that. We're hoping that UA-cam will provide an automatic subtitles feature in the near future as it's too difficult to put subtitles throughout the full video, especially at an hour and a half long lol. Guess that's the issue with online... many people have very strong accents or speak a different language altogether! Hope you're well and thanks :)
i was born in the new hospital just up the road from it
I was born in that hospital in 1967
is the building still there?
We haven't been there since we last investigated. It is still there but we cannot say at all what the condition is or how accessible it is....
been in this aboot 20 times n neds chased me n ma pals oot everytime
Considering a Wee look inside here. How do u get in without climbing fence etc. I went to it once with friends but we didn't go inside. Just looked around outside. But we climbed over the fence to get in. Would love to get some photographs of the inside. Going back soon so hopefully find a better way to get in other than climbing fences and looking dodger lol.
is it aw blocked up aff the mad grey metal fence ave no been in a few month?
I was there yesterday with a few friends and we got in but it seems they are closing up all ways to get in fast so I didn't give away how to get in that much in my video in case they see it and lock it up. If you have been before then if you watch my video I'm sure you'll make out where the way in is :)
Just had a look around to see if we could get in tonight... Has anyone been in recently who knows where to get access in? X
I wouldn't bother now, there's groups of vandals smashing it up and stealing lead from the roof
After the first balcony thing you go right and the go straight down to the left and there is a door that will take you in
I would not go i worked there for years and still didn't get to know the place it is a maze, when we called the police for noises coming from the kitchen etc i had to take the cops around they didn't have a clue, the crew that made this film i am sure must have been shown around to make this video as no one knows about the tunnels underneath you would need to be shown that.
Thanks, I'll try that next time we go :)
we can confirm that no one showed us around. we just roam and see where it takes us and rarely get lost
i aslso noticed iin some of ur hunts u have captured orbs..in which u didnt replay../?
Orbs are a tricky thing. We only highlight them if they come across as very impressive now as during filming on large locations for sometimes a total of 6 to 7 hours, we catch all sorts of flying debris, most of which we choose not to highlight unless like we say... the movement of the orb is suspicious or very impressive. :)
Understand...I'd like to hunt again..But definitely not on my own lol :-)
i love to watch u guys but why would u all have the dog there with all the glass and stuff on the floor ???
Naturally all 7 of us in the video don't 'all' have the dog there with us. The owner of the dog prefers to bring the dog for a couple of reasons and none of the rest of us personally have anything against it. I think we are looking into getting covers for the dogs feet though so it's all good :) Thanks for watching though :)
Been there
I was born there
dont just walk through most of ur hunts in silence..u need 2 invite the spirits more..talk out about the history while asking out..get angry with them if they dont respond...
Apologies for late reply. Given the sheer size of this location, we all were a bit guilty of roaming around more then we usually do... however there are many times where we do our best to communicate with spirits in this video more towards the end. Not sure how we feel about being aggressive to a huge extent with spirits yet but it may come to that lol. Thanks :)
Lol..are you all still in the game.?..myself and my neighbour hunt..but we gave up last summer...His fault lol..
I'm actually watching u at moment lol..Just discovered you the other night :-)
Night for now..keep in touch x
What about asbestos
Just do what every other photographer and explorer does: stay away from it and don't go near it as much as is physically possible. I guess so long as one isn't stealing metal pipes and sawing and hammering away at things a delicate roam around shouldn't be too risky on that front.
Kinda irresponsible to take your child in there when there's so much disturbed asbestos laying around. Hopefully he is alright but could end up with lung cancer down the line. Hey, you got a cool video though haha.
