It's not a fetish. It's about history and art and appreciating your local area. I've been photographing abandoned places, old buildings and such for 20 years or more. I love the old architecture and how the weathering changes it all. I never think of them as haunted as some people do. I see them as enduring, something from our past remaining into our future.
I'm from Chicago and I thought the areas of Chicago that have abandoned places were that bad until I went to Gary,IN and Detroit I was in for a Rule awakening
One of the most terrifying abandoned places I've ever been was this strange industrial space under a bridge in wicker park I believe me and my 2 friends are from Michigan and we had a local kid show us the spot and we were all so fucking terrified when we walked in there the stench of death... you could feel a dark presence our skin crawled and there were all of these strange miscilanious objects placed around and this ominous construction light hanging from the ceiling never ever will we forget that place it was worse than anything you'd see in a horror movie
Sounds cool
Great video guys. Good luck with your future ventures.
This video was rely well made and i think it rely passes the message of urban exploration.

I've been "exploring" since before most of the so called explorers been born, like laura Brown said before it be came a "thing" I'm what some call a lone wolf, don't need others with me when I explore, just wish some morons would stop defacing or marking their territories with graffiti
+RICH DUDDY Congrats
"Graffiti" artist are the original urban explorers. That's why there's always graffiti before urban explorers discover these places.
RICH DUDDY want a cookie?
I agree, same with the people who come in just to break stuff or steal
