Just come urbexing with me..lol.. Most excellent building Dan.. I could smell it!!! And the echos of the years..and that Golden wallpaper that had been covered looked new!!!!! Sweet spot Dan.. Thanks, from a Jersey Girl..
This is usually what I think of when they say an abandoned building. Just an enormous amount of decay and sadness and what it must of been like back in the day
Oh my goodness, this is way past abandoned.. It's abandoned, forgotten, rotten, decayed, crumbling, destroyed...wow!! Looks like something from a postapocolyptic war zone!!
love how the proper people are just clambering over the rubble like it's nothing and dan's just doing his best (which is wayyyy better than I'd be doing lol)
I am from Elizabeth, N.J., and lived in Irvington as well. Newark was one of our countries greatest cities at one time. But unfortunately, like Detroit, it has become a gaunt spectre lingering in yesteryear's shadow. Great video and work, gents. Thank you.
It’s incredibly sad. I’m also from Elizabeth and it seems like broad street is heading the same way. There are boarded up buildings and local stores as well as 711 have started to close leaving giant abandoned buildings.
This is what I love about your channel. Your style, humor and the fact you cover so many genres. It keeps things fresh and entertaining. As well as informative . Thank you and keep up the great work!
When it first opened it was used for vaudeville acts. Singing and dancing , big bands. The room you say was more for lighting during those acts. I do not believe it every was a movie theater. Just live acts.
@@ballabogan Yeah, I'd imagine a massive place like this would need a massive influx of money on a weekly and month basis to stay open, people really don't watch plays anymore and even movie theaters are going away. Plus a huge place like this needs lots of maintenance to look nice and once abandoned, it all decays away.
Two of my favourite explore channels in one! What a place! Too bad it was left to rot! Amazing to see the original wallpaper under that 50's remodel beige! The second floor theatre was a real gem! The downstairs one being rubble basically!Also no lobby as that was converted over to a store after it closed. I looked at pictures on google of how it used to look! Incredible place it was! Thanks Dan!
Love when you guys collab. Dan & the Proper people dudes are my favorite 2 urbex channels on the ol UA-camz...... this site is super cool too! Nice work guys
I love reading all the comments. I love your videos .I live in Kansas where there is nothing like this and it's like I'm there exploring w you all. Thank you for that.✌

I live in nj my entire life and I have frequently been in Newark never knew this building existed. But your RIGHT! NJ is one of the most expensive places to live!
Yeah....the theater didn’t close due to high taxes. (Not sure where that was sourced from). In 1967 Newark burned for 4 days. The rioting wasn’t centered in this area but it did kill this area as a destination shopping and commercial district for the Northern New Jersey. ~150 other cities in the US also had race riots and uprisings that summer.
I checked this place out a year ago. It was such an awesome find but after watching this video, I missed so much there! I must go back! I went in the daytime though... way too creepy at night
It looks worse than in the Proper People's prior pre-pandemic posting. I have to give builders some credit, that building has stood through a lot of abuse and neglect.
*Doing the happy dance* Not only getting to see Dan Bell doing a classic Urbex...Butttt...Getting to see Dan Bell and the Proper People together!! Y'all are by far the very best Urbex'rs on UA-cam! I'm so glad I happened upon Dan Bell all those years ago! And equally happy to be a fan of the Proper People for years as well 💜💜💜 Love you gents and great big hugs 💜💜💜🤗🤗🤗
Thanks for editing such a long vid for us dan!! That pile filling the main floor was terrifying. Please consider wearing some sort of protective gear for your lungs, I know you put one on in the really moldy places but that plaster is terrible for you as well. Stay safe!!
Wow! Stunning video, the desolation of the place is intense, yet there are glimmers of a beautiful building underneath it all. Reminded me of Fallout. Thanks Dan.
By contrast, no one I know really wants to watch these with me. Hubby says he knew a guy he used to play board games with but I dunno the guy's name. Lol.
@@andrew881000 Aye. The main problem with talking about it was that the house is a private property, so Dan can't go into detail about past owners/residents without giving away the address.
Maybe the real reason is because the ghost is fake. Watch this video on the REM pod device they used in the video and how they are bullshit: ua-cam.com/video/u9QEGupMTII/v-deo.html
I hope to see another collaboration between your 2 channels. They are great guys always respectful of their surroundings no matter how trashed. You as well Dan, your skills with narration,cinemetography and video editing editing needs to come back again!
I remember watching the quick livestream you did at this theatre with the Proper People. Happy to see the video for it is finally out! As always, great work Dan.
Oh, the double decker theater is one of my favourite videos of the Proper People. That thing is AWESOME and massive! Really nice to see it again through your eyes. I had to laugh when you explained to Bryan and Michael that you hated that place when entering because I could hear it in your voice and what you were saying when climbing over that rubble. 😁
"I wanna go, to the late night science fiction picture show..by RKO... OOHH OOHH in the back row...to the late night. Science fiction picture show" -rocky horror picture show. Sorry , the Rko got me and I had to sing it! Lol
I can't quite put my finger on why you are one of my favorite youtube channels, but I love your content in a way I can barely describe. I hope you never change and keep doing what you do forever. The editing, the dry humor, the creepy- strange places, and your descriptions. It's a huge mood and I just love it.
Glad to see The Proper People on your channel. They are one of only a very few who are as respectful of old places as you are, and they’re also great videographers. I like it when you do collabs with other groups, although your soothing voice narration is missed. Nice one Dan.
To everyone saying it's a shame they can't fix this place up, why won't "they" do something, etc. I wrote historical preservation grants in Newark. Restoring historical places is extremely expensive. You have to do a ton of things to make the restored property acceptable. You have to remove mold, retrofit electrical, make the new property ADA compliant, source and find materials that would be used during the original time period...the list goes on and on. The government will grant some money to restore historical places but additional funding will still be needed. Private funds have to be raised and that can be a long and tricky process. Meanwhile time passes and the building decaysfurther, and it could become too expensive to repair as the building falls farther into disrepair. Sometimes the only thing that can be done is to bulldoze. If historical, buildings interest you, consider donating to your state's historical society.
I like the part near the end when you guys just sit down in the seats and take it all in. Wondering what this place used to look like before it decayed so badly.
Thank u all for showing americana history that's gone, I think it's so important to show times that were for so many reasons, also super cool u do a little ghost stuff too now! Awesome job boys, thank you!!!
@@justinmccowan2543 It's still pretty dry for an an abandoned building that sat for decades. Normally water damage comes from leaky roofs that break through drywall like ceiling panels (whatever they're called) then sop on the floor leaving puddles and or huge water damage. I saw their breath in the video so I think it could be in the colder seasons, but still, there's no sign of puddles or frozen water if that's the case or even badly damaged flaky bubbling paint. The rust on some of the metal rubble could just be humidity and either way it's still not common to see an abandoned building/place just being dusty from age and the structure crumbling away due to lack of water damage. (Well there's old abandoned western establishments)
11:32 ... plaster of paris 'medallions' made in a tin mold from a factory which no longer exists... they will eventually dissolve into a powder lying on the floor from all the moisture in the air because they are no longer 'sealed' by a layer of whitewash.
Dan, you are brave for exploring an abandoned building in Newark, and at night at that! Nothing good happens in Newark, especially past dark. Locals know. Hahaha. Hope you are doing well man
My friend's ex boyfriend left a bar one night about 12 yrs ago down from the Prudential Center and was robbed at gunpoint. If it wasn't for a police helicopter up in the sky going overhead he does not know what would have happened to him.
Mutlap If people in the cities didn’t want Democrats running things they would vote more for Republicans. But most cities in most places are more liberal/blue than more rural areas.
Please guys I know this is an old but great video please get dan bell to 600k hes almost there he is so talented and deserves to be more than he is well done from a fan
The little rooms you thought were hotel rooms I think was a larger space originally, but partitions were added. I notice they have modern sheet steel studs for framing, which lead me to say they were added 1970's or later. Had the partitions been built earlier, they would have used wood framing.
Makes me think of the people that built this and those who did the fine ornate finishing work , if they could see it today I'm sure there would be some tears shed .
Omg Those 3 Levels Of Seats , Stage Looks Like Dracula's Place , I Have Had Dreams ( Night Mares ) Of Places Like This .. Like I'm Trapped .. Good Video Dan Bell
Out here in San Francisco, we lost the flagship of the Fox Theatre Empire in 1963. A 4500 seat French Baroque movie palace, opened in 1929.The city regrets today.
It always impresses me how accurate some of the Fallout games are with their depictions of abandoned buildings. This could easily be modeled and put in one of the games and no one would think it was out of place.
Wow I was not expecting to see you in NJ. Newark, my mom's from there. They recently demolished an abandoned baseball stadium by Broad Street station. If it was still around, I would've recommended checking that place out
Wow, how sad that this once beautiful place now looks like this ....great to see Dan and the PP together, you're my 2 favourite urbex UA-camrs x take care guys! Xx
This must be what it feels like to be in the belly of some Lovecraft beast. That shot especially where your looking up at the tipping balconies, the piles of helter skelter debris, the darkness beneath. Brave does not match your steel in walking among the bones of RKO.

"As soon as you're gone." -This is Dan Bell 2020
Stay safe.
That's a hell of a look shot over the city there
Just come urbexing with me..lol.. Most excellent building Dan.. I could smell it!!! And the echos of the years..and that Golden wallpaper that had been covered looked new!!!!! Sweet spot Dan.. Thanks, from a Jersey Girl..
If this place were preserved and still running today it could be a huge attraction. What a beautiful building!
ole' theaters were the main form of art & attraction from the 17th century up until the corporate movie cinemas replaced them in the mid 20th.
I agree. It's so heartbreaking to see it all in ruins. So much art and history lost...
I would go and visit this. Why do they let historic buildings become so abandoned? It’s disgusting. Imagine the history of this place. Wonderful.
Rachel Mayes Short answer: It’s Newark
@@rachelmayes7905 Imagine the history of the land it's built on. Long before Europeans set foot.
This is usually what I think of when they say an abandoned building. Just an enormous amount of decay and sadness and what it must of been like back in the day
The problem is homeless people go there and they arent bad but some of them are bad. It depends.
Oh my goodness, this is way past abandoned.. It's abandoned, forgotten, rotten, decayed, crumbling, destroyed...wow!! Looks like something from a postapocolyptic war zone!!
@@ShastaAnn its not though someone is maintaining the roof its really dry inside and there was a bunch of new pvc piping set up
love how the proper people are just clambering over the rubble like it's nothing and dan's just doing his best (which is wayyyy better than I'd be doing lol)
I find it funny how they’re just blowing past it like it’s nothing and Dan’s like “are you guys sure about this?”
It wouldn't be /This is Dan Bell/ without heavy breathing
Hes got a point
I actually kind of enjoy the breathing. It’s relaxing to me. I like that and the crunching footsteps.
@@TCherice same
It’s Dan though so we love it and him
I am from Elizabeth, N.J., and lived in Irvington as well. Newark was one of our countries greatest cities at one time. But unfortunately, like Detroit, it has become a gaunt spectre lingering in yesteryear's shadow. Great video and work, gents. Thank you.
It’s incredibly sad. I’m also from Elizabeth and it seems like broad street is heading the same way. There are boarded up buildings and local stores as well as 711 have started to close leaving giant abandoned buildings.
Welcome to the wonderful world of progressivism.
I live in Elizabeth nj too! SO COOL
My grandpa grew up in Elizabeth, my grandma in east orange... but back in the 30s and 40s. Way different back then
It's criminal that buildings like this are allowed to just crumble away.
Are you in USA?
Agreed!
@Sprinkle Tinkle no. Not letting the buildings get bad to begin with would be better.
they usually just demolish them and build a cheap highrise for corporate wage-slaves
someone is maintaining the roof there new pvc drain pipes and the place is pretty dry
This is what I love about your channel. Your style, humor and the fact you cover so many genres. It keeps things fresh and entertaining. As well as informative . Thank you and keep up the great work!
THE PROPER PEOPLE! I love when you guys do stuff together!
Those small rooms were dressing rooms. For the Actors in the plays
I thought it was a movie theater? There was a projector room
Or was it both?
When it first opened it was used for vaudeville acts. Singing and dancing , big bands. The room you say was more for lighting during those acts. I do not believe it every was a movie theater. Just live acts.
They look fairly modern, probably 1970's or later because steel studs were used for the framing.
@@justinmccowan2543 it's actually been closed since 1961 amazingly enough
It's a shame to see such an amazing structure to be left to decay!
No money in it to keep it up I guess.

There’s an abandoned City Subway tunnel there, you need to see it
As long as the North Koreans aren't using It.
There might be some mutated turtles and a giant rat living there.
Wow Kim, Very cool!
@@chaosinfyrno Be careful Mikoto, this is the same guy who shot a nuke over Hokkaido.
No no it's OK, the North Koreans totally aren't trying to lure you down to their tunnel to kidnap you.
All that it needed was "Midnight, the Stars and You" playing in the background just for that vibe lol.
Oh god The Shining music 🤯
Love the arched windows. Must have been amazing at one time. Dan Bell and The Proper People make an amazing team. Thank you
Google it. It was!
Sounds like a rock band 🤟

It's actually fabric, not wallpaper.
I pass by this building all the time and I never knew what was in it. Thank for the informative video!
They fixed up a few blocks of Newark but don't be fooled. It's a desolate , dangerous place.
Newark is like a couple of cities post recession but pre 2018: Waiting desperalty to attract richish people to do what the city wont
I grew up dancing at an old theatre so seeing one this beautiful in ruins made me so upset. Fucked that such an amazing building is just left to rot.
Love when you guys collab. Dan & the Proper people dudes are my favorite 2 urbex channels on the ol UA-camz...... this site is super cool too! Nice work guys
check out some of shiey's videos. He does some cool shit
i do love the proper people and dan bell they're my 2 all time favorit urbex channels
One of Dans friends Rick Sanchez is in a few of these videos as well, and he’s great.
I love reading all the comments. I love your videos .I live in Kansas where there is nothing like this and it's like I'm there exploring w you all. Thank you for that.✌

"The Proctor closed in 1968 due to high taxes." Yep, sounds like New Jersey. lol
And the race riots. Look it up.

Dan: is this all trash or is it collapsed?
Dan: second guessing life choices
Me: super concerned no one gets impaled
Thanks for editing such a long vid for us dan!! That pile filling the main floor was terrifying. Please consider wearing some sort of protective gear for your lungs, I know you put one on in the really moldy places but that plaster is terrible for you as well. Stay safe!!
I would have loved to have seen this building when was in use.
they are walking around in a room that could fall out from under them at any moment, and Dan is worried about his car!!!!! I love it!
I was getting cold sweats watching you guys walk across that rubble floor.
Any one of those floors could be a layer of dust covering a bit of plasterboard and a 40 foot drop. Simply terrifying
I have visions of the whole thing coming down
I've gotten a nail in the foot once, just a quarter inch, but..... Watching Dan walk through there filming the ground was super uncomfortable.
“Ya great…but how’s my car look?” 🤣
Wow! Stunning video, the desolation of the place is intense, yet there are glimmers of a beautiful building underneath it all. Reminded me of Fallout. Thanks Dan.
Your content is the only thing that makes my dad stop what hes doing and watch a UA-cam video with me
By contrast, no one I know really wants to watch these with me.
Hubby says he knew a guy he used to play board games with but I dunno the guy's name. Lol.
Dan, Could we get a video of yourself, Rick and Brennan discussing the murdered spirit? Maybe a return visit in a few months? Thank You
The one time I revisited a place where I knew trespassing would be an issue. I got nabbed. So that made a new rule.
I believe he did a livestream already talking about the murdered spirit
@@andrew881000 Aye. The main problem with talking about it was that the house is a private property, so Dan can't go into detail about past owners/residents without giving away the address.
Maybe the real reason is because the ghost is fake. Watch this video on the REM pod device they used in the video and how they are bullshit:

Great video Dan!!! My home state, lots of cool abandoned places all over Jersey.
I want a compilation video of every time Dan Bell says “oh my god” in all his videos! Please somebody make this, I’d laugh so hard!!!
or "Oh NOOOOOOOO"
Oh, the double decker theater is one of my favourite videos of the Proper People. That thing is AWESOME and massive! Really nice to see it again through your eyes.

This theatre was very close to the Newark riots. After the riots it shutdown. Nobody came to downtown after that. The glory of Newark was over.
Hey Dan Bell, you ever get hassled by cops doing this stuff?
I think one time when he visited I believe Centralia.
iirc during his tour of the rolling acres mall he had a run in with some patrolling officers
No. I just drop to my knees and blow them. They usually release me after that.

It's so weird to see not that much water damage instead it's literally all dust and the building crumbling away.
It's a steel and concrete framed building. The main thing is the condition of the roof in how much water damage there is from above.

Oh hell yes! Dan Bell, The Proper People, and incredible abadoned buildings, so good.
Yesss my favorite when you all collab 🙌
Awesome. Love your style of abandoned building exploration videos. Keep up the great work.
