I used to work at the old Purina Dog food plant down the hill. Rumors that a tunnel led from the state hospital led there. I think I found it in 2013 . My buddy and I went exploring and found a flooded corridor with weird lights on under water. Saw a face in a submerged door! No BS. Not goin back.😮😨😰
I’ve been inside a few times (it’s now been demolished) My little sister saw something, I didn’t. Dr. Zeller also had a hospital in Peoria, Illinois for those who weren’t aware. It is now a college.
I've been all through that building from the basement to the attic, there's a maze of tunnels underneath the building I've been through. I've never seen anything in there, but I've heard stuff that will give you goosebumps.
I used to live in Peoria right next to Bartonville. Used to walk through the asylum all the time. No guided tours just kids being in places they shouldn't. Never had a single weird thing happen though.
I've been there many times in the middle of the night. Partying and doing what teens do! Never seen a spook but did always heard noises which was probably animals. Great building to get lost in and have the shit scared out of ya. Its as frightening as your mind cam imagine!
Great job!! I thought she did a great job of explaining the history and the use of the building. Ignore the negative comments! It was interesting from beginning to end!
I grew up in Bartonville. As teenagers we would go and sneak around looking, but were chased off by the police often lol. Never did anything bad. Just walked around the graveyard a lot.
I live at the bottom of the hill in Bartonville, right behind the Hardees. Sometimes if I'm heading up to the top of the hill, for instance to the Kroger, I'll take Pfeiffer instead of taking Garfield, just so I can go by the Bowen building (the building they're touring in the video).
I was just talking with my stepmother this evening and this place came into mind. My stepmother worked at this place in the early 60s. Creepy place for sure.
Same here we went for a halloween kind of night when i was little they had stuff set up for scary movies outside and we took a picture of the building and you could see a light or a face in on of the upper floor windows
The best place to get info on this place to is from the older generation of bartonville one thing you'll never find out unless you talk to an old woman or man is that one day the doctors let out all the patients and they attacked people and this went on for a week to a point where you couldent go out side the mayor at the time coverd it up and only the people who worked there or lived in bartonville that didn't leave know this
I live only about ten minutes from there and have been past it several times. Now after watching this I'm kind of nervous about going anywhere near it.
My husband and I did an all-night ghost hunt in this building. We were the only two people in there. It was so cool to be there! We DID have some ghostly activity that night. I wish it was still there.
this might piss some people off and i dont want to steel your fire here... but! i am a peoria resident and have worked many times right next to this building. so ive been in all the places seen in video. i have a few sets of pics. from when i took both my chilldren through at almost 12 midnight. some pics have "an event" so i would love to get these into your hands. i was able to get into this building back in 97-01 and it was a much spookier place then.
I Live right near here, by boyfriend drove me passed the building one night and just the presence of the place is insane...but be careful going here because the police watch this place like a hawk, thats why we only drove passed it and didn't stop to check it out.
@comgeek24 Actually one thing me and my friend found funny. We walked out of this room together, We BOTH heard the word "Pardon me, someone PASSED us both,we both said excuse me. then we both look back and realized only 4 people including us where having the tour. the other 2 people where always ahead of us and the tour guide stayed ahead of us.
now this is what i'm fucking talking about,i live in canton,not far from this.I Went in about 3 years ago with my cousin and a few friends and i saw a shadow dart off the ceiling and it sounded like a bunch of bugs scurrying around really fast
Ghosts/spirits don't appear when you want them to especially adult spirits so if you were there as teenagers and you didn't see anything they didn't want to show themselves to you; I've seen my dad in only in 1 picture with my grandson that's it he doesn't show himself but only that 1 time a year ago
I grew up in Bartonville Ill and everyone there has a story about the asylum. Almost all of my friends at Limestone High say their mom or dad worked there and yes, they all saw 'something'. In fact, my so called friends used to make me cry, saying they were going to drop me off there. LOL!! creepy!!!
my goodness! that lady guide is amazingly brave hoooo. I'm I can't even visit any of these places however she knows everything about each particular room and basements 😳😳😳😳😳😳
WHOA. That's close to where I grew up. I've been on the property but was too scared to go inside because homeless people would camp in there and we didn't want to get hurt. Across the street is the cemetery where the patients were buried. There is a tunnel that runs under the street. None of the head stones identify the dead, so you don't know who is there. They are just numbered.
They are numbered because they just tortured people for expeiriments. They did that day by day and every grave is for every day of each month. There is over 200 graves. I just visited there yesterday.
Me and my friend was driving with her family and at this time i didnt believe but as we passed by i look into a window and seen a lady in white i blink and its gine
They made the INFIRMARY the haunted house attraction, not this building. My fiance and I just started shooting our homemade documentary on Manual Bookbinder who was the most famous patient there who cried at every burial. The part where she shows all of the other cottage buildings, across the street is the Infirmary which is the haunt attraction. Right behind that building is the Cemetery where Bookbinder is buried.
I've been livig in bartonville for 15 years and I went to the place for some dam reason and me and my friend though it would be funny to "call out a ghost" and I'm not a superstition type person but I shit you not I was grabbed and drug into a room and it was almost as if I saw the past and around me a bunch off people were attacking doctors and the doctor letting these people out in the town and then I see my friend shaking me to wake me up I felt I should share my story
12 years later but shit - thank you for doing this video. I feel like I’m having no luck with research on this place. Wanting to know more about this place - the real history of it beyond the structure and architecture you know?
first off they did not house the women there the women were kept in separate area the man who hung himself there is no record of it this is most important thing to know THEY DID NOT HOUSE INMATES IN THE BOWEN BUILDING IT WAS SPECIFICALLY FOR SCHOOL AN DOCTORS i know this be cause my grandmother went to nursing classes there
The Pollak Hospital is just as haunted as what used to be the Bowen Building (torn down now). I took a tour in July of 2019 and it was crazy! What a night!
I was there and caught a good amount of evp although the best was the remarks from a little boy's voice correcting me and my lady Kristy of the location of a grave , she said it was here i replied no its over there then the voice " no it isnt it's over there " that was round 2:30am in the graveyard next to Bookbinders grave , also in and around the main bld . The woods directly right of the dirt road at the chained entrance of the graveyard were orbs like 11 just flowing around the trees K.W.P.R.S (Kalm Wolf Paranormal Research Study
My friend and I drove past one night and in one of the window we saw a face like shape. It was pale white and had spots where eyes would be. We took a picture then after awhile of it still being there we figured it was a glare on the glass. We went back in the day. There was no glass there... We have the picture. its a face.
I went in with a few friends back in 07' and didn't have any paranormal experiences, really. Well no, that's not entirely true. We did have a large and heavy door SLAM shut on us right when we were passing in front of it. We went in on the sly, so we were pretty worried about getting popped off by the fuzz. We did get to explore EVERY inch of the joint, though!!! Very cool!!! Does anyone have any info. on how I can go on their official tour/overnight???
I live near there and have gone there numerous times. its definitely creepy, I havent seen or heard anything before but it doesnt mean its never happened to other people
Hey PB, is this place near Peoria? My dad told me his Grandpa Emile was put in the asylum in Peoria. He wasn't crazy, he just had Alzheimers, but they didn't know much about that back in the 40s, so they'd just institutionalize people.
I rented a room there. Never really saw anything. The acoustics were great for my drum set. The tours would get annoying after a while, but you get used to it.
towards the end when she is at the bottom of the stairs in the basement talking about people leaving on the wall thre is a shadow like someone walks by.
My great grandma is still alive and kicking today she used to work there As one of the cafe workers. The scariest thing was that she Witnessed a murder of a dietary worker One of the patients Committed the murder I'll have to ask her for the details because I forgot. It's Jenna while since She told me about her time working there I have to ask her about it again to get more details
Paul Brooks I got more details on it turns out from what my grandma told me he got ahold of a Blunt object, There was another patient he was actually one of the calmer ones The barbaric thing about it is that they took out all of his teeth he was living in the woods and he was Mongolian Or something she couldn't remember What ethnicity he was. The reason why they took out all of teeth was because he would try to bite everyone, My grandmother Was not allowed to go near any of the patients areas procedure rooms And Where all the other crazy stuff happened . After that guy killed that dietary worker I bet you can guess what happened and it wasn't pretty. The only time she ever saw the patients was when they went to the cafe if they even let them out of their Rooms to go to the cafe. Sometimes they just brought the food to Their rooms. She told me sometimes she could hear the patients wailing and screaming When they weren't in their rooms of course because you know padded cells. Sne word that she used to describe her experience working there was unsettling. After she tells people about her time working there she always says that she is glad that Those times are gone And that the mantle health industry has come so far. She said even in Illinois it was easier to get in those places then to get out
I grew up in Pekin 15 minutes away from this. We would order pizza and take them up to The asylum and stay the night in there. There is just so much to see and is a very dangerous place. Our 20 years of going there , their isn't much we haven't witnessed.
Inserenity75, not completely sure but I would think that some sort of infection could have set in when the arm was broken, depending on the kind of break, like sepsis,
ive been in there .... Seeings as i live close and ive had one follow me ... it looked as if he has a Hat on ... and i kept hearing ur blood ur blood it was very odd and Very creepy i basement it was really got me tho one sec it was Hot the next it was Freezing cold like it was Snowing
@zelzro Yeah, I wonder why the tour guide was so adamant about the tourists shutting their cell phones off in the basement. Have you had anything happen to yours while you were there?
There are definitely "things" in the basement. But there were "things" on the first and third floor too. Cell phones were barely a thing when we went there in the early 2000s so not sure what that would be about. Kinda sounds like a place called the Dead Bridge in Central Illinois where cars die and phones quit though. I guess that's a common "haunting" tning.
The tunnels adjacent to the main building have been filled in for years. I believe there were more in the surrounding area but we never went that far out.
I was just woundering, the lady giving the tour, is she the owner or something, or did she run the hospital??? iam curious because she keeps refering the hospital as hers, she is always saying we as if she has been there running the place since it opened.
@sixwaise The building isn't guarded. The cop must have been there for another reason. I make deliveries to the businesses right behind the building and there's never anyone there.
Naw. Something else I gotta ask: I saw on your channel the vid of that sweet ass Mustang. Why, oh WHY, did you get rid of it? And for what could you have possibly traded that beauty in for?
i'm pretty sure the building is near condemned and the cops don't want stupid teens causing a ruccus inside the place and possibly destroying something, it IS a historic landmark to many people after all
So why are state hospitals still used for this purpose? Psych wards are typically integrated in Department of Corrections since those who typically need a psych ward comitted a crime and if they didn't, this is why we have hospitals with secured psych units. My only thing is State Wards are kind of a waste of money since there are two main spots one could go for psych inpatient treatment
I used to work at the old Purina Dog food plant down the hill. Rumors that a tunnel led from the state hospital led there. I think I found it in 2013 . My buddy and I went exploring and found a flooded corridor with weird lights on under water. Saw a face in a submerged door! No BS. Not goin back.😮😨😰
Sometimes I really wish I could go to one of these places and see 'something'. Then I remember I have a panic disorder, so I probably shouldn't. :')

@SuperWarking Not really Psych wards are in hospitals State facilities are for people who are committed by the state for a long period of time.
so is it true,march of 2016,they tore it down ????
no . I live a few miles away from the actual hospital and it's still standing so far
is it still up
Joh n its still up
So why are state hospitals still used for this purpose? Psych wards are typically integrated in Department of Corrections since those who typically need a psych ward comitted a crime and if they didn't, this is why we have hospitals with secured psych units. My only thing is State Wards are kind of a waste of money since there are two main spots one could go for psych inpatient treatment
