Back o topic of abandoned hospitals, it’s certainly worth to mention St. John’s Hospital situated in Lincolnshire. It was opened in 1852. The hospital was initially focused on the mentally ill from the local poor. Obviously, local doctors didn’t even try to help people, dozens of years incredibly cruel medical experiments were hold there. The hospital has been working more than a hundred years, and in 1989, the local authorities decided to close it.

The workers who were hired for the removal of equipment from the hospital had to pass through some of the most horrific days in their lives. According to workers, eerie cries heard in the walls of the hospital couldn’t be compared with any other; the most frightening fact is their inexplicable origin. After the hospital was closed, firefighters repeatedly came there, as there were many reports about fire in the abandoned building. Fireguards didn’t find traces of fire, but they were able to see a few obscure lights that quickly disappeared.

It’s noteworthy that many patients witnessed paranormal phenomena and told doctors about suddenly erupts into flames and chilling screams, but nobody listened the words of mentally ill patients. Tourists visiting the hospital today often complain of sudden panic attacks and headaches. The St. John’s Hospital is reasonably considered one of the darkest and most mysterious buildings in the world. Next - Crenshaw House
