- This facility originally opened as a Tuberculous hospital in 1916. By the late 1980s it was repurposed as a state prison. The entire property was closed and abandoned in 2013.

i hate how state and federal government in the us let buildings and expensive equipment rot and then complain they don't have any money. they could have converted that building for another use or sold it and at the very least given the medical equipment to a third world country
Me too...watched it happen years upon years and it's sickening
We help other countries out way more than we should
I agree, I don't know how many of these abandon videos I have seen with millions of dollars worth of MIR, CAT scan equipment now useless. The arrogant, selfish owners and government would rather have it rot away than let someone get use of it for free or pennies on the dollar.
Local governments don't have money for places like this. Because no one wants to prioritize healthcare, especially mental health care. Selling this would cover like one month of anything, and then they'd have to buy land to make the next hospital or whatever.
There are more empty homes than homeless people btw
This is so close to my childhood. My grandfather was a physician and superintendent of a Tuberculosis sanitarium In Kansas. My father was a staff physician. Staff had hones on the grounds. My father had grown up there before he went to medical school and then went on Staff after he came back from WWII. I lived there the first 2 1/2 years of my life and then went back to stay with my grandparents every summer. With proper antibiotics Tuberculosis finally came until control and the hospital was turned into a mental institution. Recently I was planning on driving through on a move further East. I pulled it up on Google Map and was astonished to find it's now a prison. The place I grew up is a prison. That's a jarring realization.
You need 1mil already your content is clearly underrated but I just wanted you to know that there are people like me that enjoy when you upload and what you upload
@Jordan Behlen you’re right… I’m nothing but a pie of bread sauce and cheese. I AM PIZZA
now i want pizza hut lol
No one out pizzas the hut
Took the words out of my mouth 🔥
thank you for the words of wisdom pizza hut
A shame it wasn't used to help the homeless, and other ways to support low income, etc. Here's what our taxes pay for, and how they throw it away, without a thought. They didn't ask, we the people. Thanks Chris, and Jay.
Absolute great point. Instead of spending money building homeless shelter's, this place could have been altered to have them stay there.
it would cost too much to make it a livable space
A big reason for the amount of homelessness is mental health problems. These facilities used to house a lot of those people. So it was being used to help the homeless in an indirect way, however nasty evil people turned public opinion on these types of facilities
@@notsojoerogan Exactly. Once better medication became more the norm, these places just shuttered their doors. Of course there are mental hospitals now, but they're not meant for long term stay like these ones were. I believe they should still exist (minus the barbaric treatments).
I'm amazed at how there are so many abandoned buildings across the US - it's a shame they can't be used in some way perhaps for homeless people.
What a waste!!! 😡
Yeah but then there would be no where to explore
@@dollargenerals2181 so you’d rather explore than for the homeless be helped
Yeah.. And a bunch of sad sack vandals always gotta ruin everything. There were soooo many holes in those walls. The only place I didn't see any vandalism was in the main chapel. Guess they thought God would put his wrath upon them...hah...
Yeah just another place to shoot up and poop everywhere
Amazing all the cool craftsmanship going to waste (rotting away) in all the old buildings around the country, such a shame.
They should take places like this and convert them to homeless housing with mental health facilities, job training facilities, addiction counseling, etc. A place where we can rehabilitate the homeless that want an opportunity to get better and rejoin society.
Nah, it's easier for the crooked politicians to say they need money to buy them tents, needles etc and sift off at least 65% of the funds.
Nah, we make more money with prisons.
I was thinking the same thing. Homeless, training place. Sad!
They could leave them the shape they are in, That way there is nothing for the homeless to trash.
These old places have asbestos & lead paint.
6:17 Carol Hines was named in a case called Dunyan v. Pennsylvania department of corrections back in 2017. The case was regarding civil rights of prisoners/patience.
Which is when it became possible for inmates to sue over toilet paper. In all seriousness though, the prisoners who are deserving of basic rights are pretrial detainees and those in prison for bullshit reasons like drug possession!
As a supernatural fan, I’d love to explore with cameras late at night. I hope you use respirators while exploring these places. Asbestos and mesothelioma is no joke.
Good choice 😉
Absolutely love your content. Steady camera, intriguing history, no stupid music or click bait.
Indeed
I’ve been watching “exploring abandoned” videos for a long time now and you are by far my favorite. You keep it simple and don’t overwhelm me with the dramatic music. Keep doing you. Thanks for everything. ❤️
You'd have to be a demon possessed monster to volunteer to work at a place that cages humans.
@@norselore3091 absolutely.
Totally agree.
And who would have thought that all these years later urban explorers would be going through the complex. Another great video.
Chris, it's a good thing u take people with you to places like this. Ya never know when u might turn around and accidently get locked in at one of these prison type places with all the secured doors. Thanks for a new video!! Too cool
I’m glad you said something! I didn’t think of that
Sad, beautiful, and haunting.
"I'm very good at handball.... one of the best." hahaha cracked me up !
The buildings could been used for a lot of different organizations. Could have been used for military , schools , hospitals or summer camps instead of closing them down.
Exploring an old abandoned building is on my bucket list, thanks to this channel lol so fascinating
Just to let you guys know when you go into some of these places watch when you go around some of the old X-ray equipment. If it is damaged or was not properly dismantled it could be dangerous. Now I mean I could be wrong but I am sure the same states that left these buildings in such a wonderful state repair wouldn't do anything like that.
Always look forward to your videos. Your narration is great!
Another great video. Thank you for sharing and exploring.
You should check out Leavenworth prison. It’s abandoned now. Most buildings there are renovated into offices and things like that now but the walls are still there and I think some of the buildings are still set up as a prison.
2013 wasn’t all that long ago. The decay and damage of the entire place seems like it would be several decades worth of abandonment.
I highly enjoy your content. I've recommended you to many friends. You are respectful, always informed and very well spoken. Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Greetings from Luxembourg
Thanks Chris, another great video and exploration from you. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 💖
I'm sure if any of the people who was comitted in this place was alive today would have lot of horrible stories to tell about this place.
So true. PA had some real life houses of horror.
NO DOUBT!😳😵
In those places people were tortured by the state,and locked in those cages like animals,it would be haunted by the ones that perished in that horrible place...
Chris, thanks once again for showing me a Pennsyltucky I never knew, despite almost 40 years’ residence there.
Awesome place. So much still intact! Well done. Thank you for the adventure.👍
Man, I wouldn’t even be touching any of that without gloves haha. This place is interesting though! Honestly the cages look like what dogs would be staying in. Looks like a kennel kind of place. Wild! 🥺
dude this is awesome! its crazy to see how many animals have met their demise in abandoned buildings, mines and even caves. I've definitiley found alot of bones while out exploring. great video man! I hope I can explore with you one day. Your channel rocks!
Always something new: radiators at 13:38 hung halfway up the walls of a high-ceilinged gymnasium is something I've never seen before! These places always give me chills of despair. Imagine being locked up and seeing the sky, even when you're outside, seen only through chain-link fences topped with rolls of razor wire. (The poor, ravaged and weathered carcase of the raccoon can spark your imagination of what would happen to a human who tried to go over the top.) Still, some parts, such as the chapel, looked nice enough, even restful... Thanks, Chris.
Should be utilizing these abandoned properties all over the US for shelter/work / rehab for the poor and homeless ✅
Absolutely! Really...anything!
Chris, Jay, nice seeing yous back together again exploring the abandoned!
Great vid 🎥, thanks for sharing! 👀

I'm really enjoying your channel's content! Thank you for doing all this for everyone to enjoy. Just subscribed
When I was a teenager in L.A they had these abandoned mental facilities all over. There were 2 we used to explore through. These were really huge facilities and we even made a little money stripping out the copper piping out of one. They just shut all these places down and let them rot.
PA & NJ were littered with them as well. One in Allentown PA was just knocked down. Where they filmed the M. Night movie GLASS.
How much did you get
Man this was FN awesome. Thank you. Much appreciated.
I love when you bring jay and all your friends, depending on where you are
What a history that place has
What’s the name of the place?
I can only imagine the stories.
This property has been on countless ghost hunting shows. The mental patients were abused and chained like animals.
I watched your New Jersey shark attack video and recently watched a video from another youtuber Scotty Cranmer and he's related to one of the people to die during the attacks.
Interesting. When I was in 4th grade I went to school in Matawan NJ. Our Liberian knew one of the survivors.
Thank you, Chris. I love your videos even though like this one it is such a sad waste. Bless those who were and died here.
Charles
If walls could talk, great video thanks for sharing
I could hear voices already
Intro on fire..🔥🔥 Nice job chris!
Thanks for sharing tour time another wonderful video with us. God Bless. Sharon
Great video. Thank you for sharing.
I love your videos.I just started watching them and I instantly subscribe.
Love places like this just stated watching you look forward to see want else you do
You have the best content. You need your own television program or television channel or more subscribers. You’re awesome
Utterly fascinating. Great job, I really got my snoop on.
The box hanging off the cell is so the inmate can’t kick the food tray back out at the guards😉
I really enjoyed this one!!! Thanks!!!! Pat
It made me sad seeing those graves,who no one won’t ever remember or bring flowers or candles
It’s like they lived to be forgotten
Really! That deck of cards on the table looked like such a setup.
it is, a cannabis company owns the place and reguarly sells tickets for tours
So this channel a setup your saying ?
I like you and Jay filming together. Great video guy's
When you absolutely, positively have to have something wasted overnight.
Call the Federal government.
cannabis company owns the place now
Uh, okay. Private businesses aren't wasteful at all. Just look at our super-efficient health insurance companies. Or the billions private contractors just blew in Afghanistan (when they weren't enriching themselves, of course).
Amazing that it is abandoned like that
Would think someone would rehab it
Thanks for sharing the exploration
Narrow rooms!....reminds me of ST ALPHONSUS COLLEGE SEMINARY SUFFIELD CT.....now a lonely sentinel next to Hilltop Farm on Mapleton Ave..many great memories!
Great video. Awesome looking place
Hey man love the videos keep it up
They actually left the radioactive material in the medical equipment:(
Ya we've seen a few results of that
I’m surprised those buildings are in pretty good shape. Awesome job Chris !
Another great video my friend 👍🍺
Chris..you are so consistent..great narration..you provide facts,and perfect slow panning of the camera..but..be aware there is mold in here and other places..i hope you get a check up at least 6 months out of the year..some molds can bring havoc to your health..
Great video thanks for sharing
You are always so pleasant and enjoyable.
Great video! The whole time I was thinking where's Jason at! 😂 Can't remember which Jason movie it was where all the crazies get loose in the building.
Great video, Chris. 👍 The end when you were going to lock Jay up reminded me of when you locked up Lamont at a prison. Lol good times. Y'all need to get back together for another video 🙂
Love the videos man!
I think I heard a crazy ghost laughing hysterically and then it turned into a bad cough
You got me to laughing with your Orange Boy impression. Keep the good vids coming man.👍✌
You covered a lot of ground! Loved this tour. I like how you move your camera so smoothly down the halls and through the rooms. Is it a drone? Or do you just have a steady hand and walk?☺️
I would wager he uses a gimbel.
In camera image stabilization
Great video... only complaint is, is that it was too short.
@@davepage2466 underrated comment
Thank you for not claiming every abandoned location haunted with ghost and spirits roaming around or even "portals" lol
Thanks for sharing
This hospital (before it became a prison) reminded me of the Williowbrook State School scandal in Staten Island, NY. It closed in the 80s for the mistreatment of the clients. I would've worn a mask in there
I remember traveling the back roads in Texas. I found a building on the side of the road that must've been a mechanic shop in the old days. The only way I knew it was shop because the old faded painting in the wall referencing prices for tire repair or spark plug cleaning I don't remember. A couple hundred yards down the road were more structures. Some had graffiti from the Vietnam era like class of 71' and old debris from the 80s. In another house a found a piece of porn that was folded up in the door jam of a house. It was sticky and a little crunchy to open but it was 1981-83.
I found a abandoned residential home after that. You could clearly see it was beautiful house at some point. The roof was there but the ceiling was gone, leaving the top of the walls exposed. It had hard wood floor above a crawl space basement of about 2.5 feet. There was missing section of floor so to enter the house I had to balance on a beam to enter. Once inside there was nothing there but I remember seeing the shiniest spoon sticking out of the dirt in the crawl space. I was trying to build up the courage to grab the spoon from the crawl space but the floor groaned under my weight. I heard a movement in the other side of the wall. I grabbed my knife tighter and peeked around the corner. I didn't see anything. Then suddenly the house came alive with noise like buzzing. I seen wasps crawling out of the walls. These fucking texas wasps were fucking huge. The ENTIRE house woke up. It was a loud buzzing noise all around me. Wasps were climbing out of every hole possible. I got the hell outta there glancing at the spoon as I balanced over the exposed crawl space. I ran to the car avoiding the tall grass for snakes. I'm running to the car swinging my hat. I could still hear a wasp near my ear, as my hat swatted it away. Somewhere in my stuff I have a picture of me running out a a abandoned house in rural Texas swinging my hat hauling ass.
Oh wow that is really Creepy but Awesome I love the Video I am shocked that they show up!
Wow this place is massive !!
Great content! BTW, check your 5 min mark. Pause it or repeat playback and as you crest left out the room, look shoulder height to your left to the doorway behind you. Let the camera adjust then tell me what do you see lurking in that corner in the hallway with you.
4:57 you can see paint peeling, 4:58 it almost looks like a figure. Try slowing to quarter speed. I don't think it's anything
A million bucks in a giant cyclone fence and razor wire and you guys just cruise right past it.. almost invited by the gate... excellent vid!! 😁
Very cool thank you
Just guessing...but I'd imagine the amount of lead paint and asbestos remaining in that place would make converting it to usable space in 2021 and beyond would be financially impossible. Likely why it was left to rot and neither being repurposed or demolished.
It wouldn't be financially impossible to mend those buildings, but it would be quite pricey!
Someone that knew you were going to go there should of been waiting wearing a zombie crazy person outfit. Left over from the sanatorium days. Filmed you screaming out. Love those stand up cages. Some sick administrators in the USA.
Thats classed as torture under the Hague convention,cruel or unusual punishment,those poor bastards would have suffered under the sadists that ran those places,may they burn in a hell like the inmates did in that house of horror.
4:00 the prybar marks on the door indicate a good reason, the other doors were locked.
Now it can be a large homeless shelter.
Great video. Reminds me of the beginning of Season 2 of American Horror Story...Asylum.
You have a gorgeous smile at the end 😍
Lawrence Frick State Hospital, Cresson, PA.
Shhh, the taggers, they'll find it!
@@JohnShinn1960 hell yeah we will
A racoon may run after me !! I used to be a chaplain assistant years ago at a forensic psych hospital in New Hampton NY.
@@JohnShinn1960 no they wont, a cannabis company owns it
Good video on Gary Cooper 🤘
I read the accounts of the horrible abuse , (physical and emotional)
of the mentally ill prisoners and it is extremely inhumane, shocking and very very sad! I bet no one was held accountable. A hydroponics co. now uses some buildings and lets visitors explore/tour this hell hole. Terrible !
Wow they had a church there. Thats a good tour man.
Wow that's cool 🔥🔥🔥
You should check out Central State Hospital in Milledgeville GA
They should convert these into housing for our homeless Vets from the wars .
God bless them all .
Thank you for your bravery and service .
🙏🏻 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🙏🏻
2:31 blood in the toilet?!!
Beautiful building, such a shame to be left to decay. X
Hey 😉
Great job as usual , when are you coming to North Carolina ??? Again !!!
Well done! But that place really gives me the creeps!
Crazy all the machines left behind
Such a history of pain and madness.
I’ve always wanted to see the inside I occasionally drive by the place
