Noraneko State Hospital [Pic Heavy]

This classic asylum building occupies in the middle of an active campus, and so once again required a predawn entry. It has been sitting disused for more than four decades and certainly shows it, but unlike any other similar institution I've been to in this state, it completely lacks graffiti or discernable vandalism. Instead, it offers all-natural decay, with lovely paint peeling off the irregular fieldstone walls and lots of nice artifacts, although many of the latter are jumbled together and crammed into rooms on the main floor. The name comes from the colony of feral cats which occupies the site, which generated some pretty unsettling noises as I waited in the darkness of the top floor for the sun to come up.

While leaving, I hooked my backpack on a railing and fell flat on my back in front of the building, in broad daylight, just as an employee drove up and parked right next to my car. She didn't spare a single look at me, despite my compromising position, and I left with no issues.

15 is to dies for




Kabbalah is an undramatic tradition that requires great patience and stability. One of the reasons for this tempo is that everyone has to mature his potential gradually and thoroughly at his natural pace. In this way his life's work unfolds at the right moment in his own and the cosmos's time.

What an absolute unicorn of a location to have sat so long without any vandalism. Great work, and lol at that near miss at the end.

Another sweet explore, great job! So many wheelchairs...every shot is a keeper; I really like 15 as well, and that hallway with the beds.

Amazing set as usual! 15 is a classic shot, but that's the best I've seen it done. The decay and paint peelage in this place is awesome!

Thanks very much, everyone! This is a place I've been thinking about for years, ever since I moved down here, and I was super pleased to finally get to see it.

Ha, I loved the irony of that brochure, given some of the experiments that they did here using certain chemicals.

Killer shot! How long ago was this? That wheelchair gets around, I'm pretty sure it's the same one in my shot #9, which is a long way from the hallway in your shot.
