Mom used to work there, actually quite a remarkable building.
My mom also worked here. She took me on a tour once...there's definitely more to it than meets the eye.
My grandfather was kept there in the 1970s. He had Parkinson's disease and but back then they treated it like a psychological disorder. He was treated terribly and was abused by the staff according to my Dad
born and raised saw it many years didnt know it was off limits since i left in 1980 but returned many many times after to port stanleyetc my name is Martin Van Oene and Mom and Dad are buried down the road
Dude I saw you here😂😂
Lived in st T AND worked there during high-school summers... guess I was fortunate.... all the patients I worked with side-by-side were just great and happy
Good to see you still out here making content brother 👍🇨🇦
I do my best, Thanks!
Excellent video. Thoroughly enjoyed it. A magnificent building. I loved the drone footage. Thank you 😀
September 24th @ 5:36pm we drove past they're making some sort of show/movie with tv crews. Sign says "Scary Stories" check it out!!
Stay tuned, was there today and filmed what they would allow me.. neat stuff! I'll have it posted within a few hours!
My fiance and I just stopped by here today. It's quite something to see the place in person. It's such a cool looking building. They had security all around the building today. I also didn't know the OPP station was right beside it lol. One day it would be nice to sneak in there.
So sad to see it’s falling that far especially the front steps I worked as a contractor there and its last days a lot of things happen there a lot of which can’t be mentioned glad people are still getting video of it while it’s still stands there I hope it still does in some weird way
At 13:30 you are at the precise perfect location to get in. There is almost no way anyone can see you there. You jump the fence and go in through one of the doors close to the centre of the building. Once you are in you need to be able to get through the barrier wall to get to the rest of the complex. Those back wings were blocked off by concrete, because they were closed about 10 years earlier than the rest of the building. They are in far worse shape, you don't want to stay in that area longer that you need to. The rest of the main building is fine though. Best explore I've ever done.
do you know if it is still accessible this way?
@@halvorviktor123 I would expect so. You need to wait a month or so for the foliage and greenery to grow in a bit to give you some natural cover. You need to access the property through the field behind it so the cops and security don't see you. Once you are over the fence, they will never know you are there. You need to bring a few items with you to get into the door and through the concrete wall in the underground tunnel.
Its an amazing explore, but takes planning and nerve to pull it off. The best explore I have ever done, but also the most difficult... If you are planning to do it, I can give you my email address and give you some specific details that you need to know.
@@neiljoosse8989 that would be very helpful if you could leave me your email. I don’t plan on going til the summer time so feel free to take your time and drop your email whenever you got some time. thank you for the insightful information tho!
Awesome video !!!!!!!!
Man, I so wish I could drive around this old place there's like security everywhere now.
Indeed, the last time I rode up we had OPP on us within 5 minutes of explaining it's history to the people I was with.
@@RandomAndrew Seriously? They shouldn't be able to hassle you when you're just standing in front of it and making a video on it. I'm not too far from St. Thomas and I'd love to see this place. You gave some good advice earlier though. The justice system does sometimes like to make examples out of people. Even if I explained to the police that I'm wanting to shoot a video not just for historical reasons, but also for views, they'd probably still make an example out of me lol. These views might lead to a modest passive income during these tough economic times.
yo your in st.thomas i love this town its nice and quiet but so manny haunted things! i love it here!
Kenzie Tomassen hi I live in st.thomas too
Great video! I dont know why the government does not convert this facility to low income apartments! Could you imagine how many low income people and families could be housed here. But I guess the government does not think the way I do! Later!!!!
I would donate my own personal time to help in a conversion like that.. I agree with you 100%!
sadly becaause nothing is up to date and the amount of espestaice it would cost our town alot of money to fix it up to make it into apartments aswell as converting the rooms they kept the paitents in into apartment like spaces it could take upwards of 4 or 5 years to finish aswell. My mother also had a tour of it when it was still open and they wouldent allow them past a certain point because of the conditions it was in, for both how people where treated and how up to date it was. so really its unrealistic to do anything to it. and it also wouldent have proper instalainton and the amount of lead paint. so in a time and money sense they arent really able to do anything at this point... dont take my word for it in only 16
@@witchbitch5321 but because of the building and its history, hopefully it could be designated heritage status and they would have to keep the buildings
@@MircomFan that is verry true, I hope it is, even if it doesnt have the best past it's a beautiful building. Like Alma college, that was also a beautiful building I hope it becomes a historical building
@@witchbitch5321 we can only hope. Hell if I somehow win the lottery I'd buy this site and turn them into apartments.
I’ll be eating 🍽 dinner everyday around 4pm or 5pm or 6pm or 7pm No Dope or Cokeheads 😇
enjoyed the video and the behind the scenes info on the hospital, need less chatter on the process of making the video though
My aunt used to work there now she works at the new building
my great grandfather was the one who ran it with the help of my grandfather
Site for filming Apple TV show See, February 2020. Filming was shut down March 2020 due to Covid-19.
Yup.. Can drive by and see things set up still.. Not much to show tho
Yo hey dude I live in st Thomas to its that building and behind it there is a soccer field behind it I always walk my dog there
My brother used to play soccer there
I love In st t too
Fix it up! Turn it into a city hospital! Walk in midwife center! With nurses and pa's with 6-10 docs in each section!
7.55 - 8.00 Are there still people working in there? There's a window open to the right of main entrance (facing building).
There is a OPP (Ontario Provincial Police) building behind the hospital, also people film movies in this building
ECD 905 It was in the nineties for 5 years it was like living close to hell waiting for Satan to claim you I now every part of it
Damn I live there
Yoo where in st thomas is this?!
South of ST Thomas.. be fore warned there is an OPP station right beside it and they keep a close eye on things. This would also be the reason I have no proper urbex video of this place.
@@RandomAndrew Yeah I live 30 mins from St. Thomas, I've always wantes to go in but the OPP presence scares me lol
I know every inch of that place I lived in it for 5 years there is no hazardous substances in there anyone wants to know more about just leave a comment with contact info I will get back to you
I was hoping you were going to break in and give us a tour. What a let down...
Sorry man, there is a OPP station less than a 1/4 mile away from the building.. its not worth the trespassing charge.
Im here cus of Scary Stories Movie
Andrew, you want info about inside my email is below the area where the new area is is called Pecker Hill
A city bus stop
If you worked for IMPERIAL tobacco you were secretly took here for a lobotomy!
