Man back in the early 2000s this place WAS THÈ SHIT it had 2 game stores “game frenzy” a hot topic , shoe department (with the big clown sign the OG sign) , a place called “Moon Walk Adventures”it was a big inflatable bounce house place with a lil arcade man it had it all, I have lucid dreams about this mall frequently, thanks for exploring this :)
I use to go to the Adrian Mall all the time. I was very sad to see it closed, and wanted to go in and look around. Thank you very much for doing this video. It is sad to see it look like that today. I had hopes to see it revitalized, but that hope is gone now. Again, thank you.
Thank you for satisfying my deep curiosity of what the inside of this place looks like since being closed down. I remember coming here a lot as a kid and it’s so sad to see how quickly it has decayed in just four years. I will admit I would’ve had the creeps because of how dark it was and I would’ve had a spot light with me 😂 My brother has more memories of the mall and really misses the restaurants that were located at the main entrance
Thanks for sharing. I worked there when I was 18 yrs old! Early 2000s, it really wasnt that long ago! HA. Your video brought so many memories, I saw my young self leaning against that brick wall wondering if my life would ever change. Surely, it did! (and for the better) So tragic they allowed it to dissipate, but happy and grateful for it to have been part of my life.
You can actually see Claw Kicker's arcade in this video. Remember seeing a vid on that in December 2020 where he came back after months of everything being closed and it was ransacked by the owners and roofers...
I grew up going to Adrian mall. We were middle class but didn’t go out often. When we did we would beg to go to Adrian mall. I remember visiting santa and the Easter bunny. I still even have some of the clothes I got from here so many years ago. I drove past it visiting my grandma and realized it was closed. (I saw some guy tweakin-) but I’ll miss it more than ever. I made lots of great memories there, I hope to give my future kids the same experience
Used to frequent that mall a lot growing up. Itsca shame to drive past it now and see what it's become. I'd love to see those old photos you found in the office
I went there several times over the years. There was a coin shop at one time. I see a lot of usable display cases and such. Whoever owns it should have a parking lot sale of fixtures before it gets worse or demolished.
The coin shop moved into the plaza with Marcos Pizza. They're thriving and leaving the mall gave them much more freedom with hours and what they could sell jewelry wise. Adrian Gold & Silver was actually one of the last 3 stores left in the mall. Before Dunham's moved in
Definitely one of the creepiest abandoned malls. The severed hand in the black glove would have bumped my anxiety level up a few notches if I was there exploring this mall.
In 1987 there was a Woolworths with a diner, a radio shack, a music store- sam goodies I think. I miss the rc car events and model displays they would have. There was a chinese place Id eat at sometimes. I got my first computer from sears along with tires and brakes for my astro van back then. I have a lot of good memories in that place. They should just tear it down and build something in it's place. be safe.
Lived in and around Adrian all my life, outside the Dunham Sports there used to be a big fountain, don't know when it was removed. But I occasionally drive by the Mall and it's sad to see. Was last in it about 20 years ago, grew up with it and sad to see it in such a state. Wish the owner would at least bulldoze it, but would definitely be expensive. Very surprised it still has electricity, what a waste of money to keep the lights on. Surprised you didn't get any raccoons or maybe even squatters there.
Next to the GNC was a shoe store, I want to say Shoe Carnival. A couple of the stores have moved out of the mall into other plazas locally. Maurices, Shoe carnival, and now Bath and Body Works are all open again elsewhere
I've lived here all my life and spent many days in this mall when it was open till they closed the doors, still to this day you can only see how run down it's been over they years from the outside, I thought someone bought it and was fixing it up, this is so sad to watch all the damage done inside this building with roof and mold and stuff...Sad how they let it go down like this.
Used to ride my bike to go to the mall back in 1970. In the late 70s hung out there as a teen. In the 90s took my daughters shopping there. A lot of good memories. Looks creepy af now.
There are....9 weed stores within 5 miles? It may be 8-10, but it really shows where Lenawee Co goes to shop. I wonder what Adrian will look like in 2050...
Hello when i was like 4 or 5 i used to go here all the time it was like the first mall I've ever went to i would always go to Bath and body works. Now am almost twelve i still always want to see inside i always peek in the windows still sad its gone but i go to the Toledo mall :)
I live in adrian. So neat seeing the inside of thus once staple hang out spot. Thanks for sharing

Posting this amazingness on my birthday?! Awesome explore!!!
Loved the video Ethan. I'm really surprised they kept the power on with all the decay and mold. Continue exploring and stay safe brother.
I'm surprised it had power too
Kinda hurts to watch. Used to love this mall. Now it's just an eyesore.

I'm kind of shocked it decayed so quickly after 4 years. Sad. Fascinating though.
Awesome explore man, congrats on 1k! Keep pushing brother
Same to you
Be careful out there gamer..Have an awesome weekend 👍
You too 🙂
Wow I can’t believe they left a lot of stuff inside. I’m definitely going to check this out whenever I’m up there. Great find!
Thx

Sadly nothing in there is usable, it’s a condemned building, nothing is supposed to be taken out but to be properly disposed of.

Been in this mall many times growing up in Michigan and even more recent to film it for my channel 😊

There was a restaurant across from the old radio shack that sold some of the best egg rolls too!
It's so sad that it used to be a great mall. There were lots of memories. 😢
Definitely be careful
Will do
I used to get my nails done at the nail place & that last room you showed was an eye care place which I got eye exams & contacts from.
This is my hometown! I used to be in this mall all the time before I moved. So sad to see what’s happened

I used to go here all the time it was so sad to see when I had to move back to town
Sad. Was there all the time

my guy.. the mall got shut down for asbestos and you’re just walking around no gas mask or gloves or anything? 😭

How'd you get in me and my friends have been trying to for awhile
the inside of the mall looks almost as good as the outside
Now that’s a complete l video :)
Oh no you diddent I see these videos all the time but now my local mall this is sad :(
I would get my kids picture with Santa and the Easter bunny at that mall
You really need to invest in a better flashlight bud! Too dark to see anything.
Would've been cool if we could actually see anything.
