We used to go there back in college. Sneak in at night with a case of beer and go looking for ghosts. Creepiest part of the place I would never go in was the children’s ward building.

So I’m assuming it’s no long being restored, based on these photos?

The Proper People did a video about this place a while ago! Always wondered where it was, thank you for sharing! I’d be interested to explore this place for myself one day. Is it as creepy and eerie as it’s made up to be? Anything to note beforehand?

It’s a really cool place to explore! I went while on a college tour and it was truly amazing!

Any idea how long the structure has been there? Also how longs it’s been abandoned?

I’m pretty sure it’s been abandoned since the 90s, but maybe bought by University or Alabama? Someone can fact check me though
