Haunted locations/Supernatural findings

I was curious if anyone here believes in these things and if so have you had any encounters? I was a non believer up until the other day when I was checking out a hospital. All was pretty normal, water drips and such, but once we got to a specific wing it sounded like a gurney or cart was being rolled down a hallway. My buddy and I both heard it and decided to leave. We did some more research on the hospital and found that it’s widely been reported to be haunted even when it was in use. There are some reports of nurses making beds only to come back to the empty room and find the beds undone, rooms in the hospital being sealed off, etc. I’d love to hear some stories from y’all or why you do/do not believe in ghosts/spirits/supernatural

There are like 100 stupid ghost-hunting TV shows right now, including on channels that once promised scientific and educational content. Meanwhile, we're no closer to figuring out what happens after we die.

I have little respect and much contempt for people who push bullshit supernatural beliefs, and I think it is the diametric opposite of what urban exploration is about. We're the Scooby Gang after Old Man McGregor's pirate zombie ghost mask comes off, not before.

My more diplomatic thoughts on this topic were laid out in this article.

Sorry dude but no, it was probably either other explorers/scrappers/homeless/. I've heard noises before too, but definitely nothing supernatural.




Before a big explore I like to work with leather. The Native Americans always said that working with hides and pelts releases the soul.

I don't really believe in ghosts, but I've had some strange things happen. i was in a hospital corridor by myself, and i saw a man in a light brown uniform walk by towards the end. I ran over to check it out, and there was no one there. i later learned that the government sent pearl harbor victims to the hospital, and the uniform the guy was wearing matched the world war two era pacific ones. i also had an experience where a soon as i walked into the female wing of an asylum, i heard a high pitched scream in a deeper part of the building. its probably all explainable, but its odd for me.

We're gonna get there. We don't need a whereabouts.

I have to consult with the OverOrbs before I say anything...

You better believe in hellholes.
Fucking around in the dark is a good way to find the other side and/or a lot of pain/suffering.
Did you know pain really does come in colors?

I have never encountered anything that wasn’t the result of a live being or a natural element. Birds and distant water drips are the fucking worst! I’ve also quietly kept my eye on others in a space and they never once knew I was the one crunching tile bits as I walked around (which frightened them greatly to my amusement).

I've been to a few very reputably 'haunted' locations, and have never experienced anything that could only be explained with a supernatural...reasoning. Like Blackhawk tends to say, hellholes are real, and aside from taking pics and looking around, I'm generally too busy on an explore avoiding the many 'real and proveable' things that could spoil my day...rotting floors, wildlife, squatters, cops, mold, dogs with bees in their mouths and when they bark, bees come out, ect., ect. In one hospital, I went to its most haunted room, nothing. But down the hallway a floor down, I see a shadowy fluttering thing cross the bit of light from up ahead. Turn on my light...bats!
I've never seen the Australian Outback (firsthand) but that doesn't disprove it's existence...I guess in my humble opinion, it's possible ghosts exist, and maybe they live (or un-live) to amuse or harass people in select creepy settings, but maybe not. I've had a few unexplainable, weird experiences in my life, so I can't fully discount it, but generally I believe what I see (I'm also originally from the ol' Show Me State), and don't tend to incorporate 'ghosthunting' into my explores. I must admit, I have a wild imagination, and I don't mind a scary story, but the supernatural is quite secondary to my urbex time.

^Truth^, splore quiet and hear(or see, smell) them before they know you are there...
Bah-ha-ha-ha-ha stealthwraith, yet another terrifying demon spirit

Lol, when I hear a noise I observe and investigate...
I have terrified little ghost hunters out of the tunnels at Pennhurst by just slamming a door and a few loud footsteps from about 30 feet away in the darkness as they came down the stairs.
They never saw me.
It's hard to put a price on peace and quiet...
I reckon that makes me a Ghost

There's enough real hazards to be watching for in abandoned buildings without throwing imagined supernatural threats into the mix.

Do you know, the human eyes are bi-directional. If you want to "see" a ghost badly enough your brain will send it to your eyes and then bounce back to your brain...

I have seen ghosts/spirits/aura, and when my dog died years ago, I saw pawprints appear on the ground and they would slowly fade away.

I also lived in a haunted house from the time I was born until the age of 5 or 6. I have some great stories if anyone is interested.

This is going to sound crazy but I believe in reincarnation. I usually forget my dreams after a day or two but I swear I had one when I was about 4 years old where I was chasing a soccer ball onto the road and I got hit by a car.

I like to think it was a dream but something about it felt too real to be one. I remember it perfectly to this day!

This made my evening.

But to OP, that's an awfully vague "encounter" to make you a believer. I'm not judging or anything, but there's most likely a very natural explanation for the sound you heard. I'd have investigated instead of leaving, but I can see the experience being freaky.

The bolded line is the least insane part of this post.

The line between "You die and then you are reborn as someone else" is a completely different question from "You die and then you float around haunting shit for a while."

There have been malevolent forces that have promoted reincarnation (Scientology) but overall I think ghost-hunting culture has been had a larger worse impact on humanity.

I have totally experienced weird, unexplained shit.

I come from a very superstitious stock (appalachian mud squids). My initial reaction is to blame it on the supernatural.

I do my best to search for logical explanations. Sometimes I find them, sometimes I don't.

I'm a firm believer in the "echoes" of things. If something emotionally or physically insane enough occurs somewhere, I think that it can occasionally leave some sort of... residue? that can be picked up. Residue doesn't necessarily have to be "psychic" energy. Can be physical signs of what happened. A well written tombstone memorial. Whatever. But it triggers different states of emotions - leading to a "supernatural" experience.

So, I believe, one day, we can probably ground a lot of this stuff in specific quantitative scientific fact or psychological theory - we just haven't gotten there yet. So until then, it'll seem, you know, supernatural.

Growing up with the family I did, that does the work they do, I embrace it. Everyone's different ;D

Side note-

The most intense stuff I've experienced have been far out in the wilds of nature, not abandoned buildings. A lot of it can be chalked up to be just weird crap in nature I didn't understand at the moment... ... but then again, the elders believe in the monsters out there. So who knows.

Well if you don't investigate it you are left with what you think it was.
Ghosts are the least of my worries.

I'm more concerned if those horrible ghoulish noises turn out to be say a large, aggressive, rabid raccoon that you just inadvertently cornered.


One time I was looking into an opening at the top of a cinder blocked entrance doorway. There was about a 14x36 inch opening. I was standing on my toes with my hands on the top row of cinder blocks peering in. I heard many squeaks*.
As my eyes adjusted from the bight sunlight to the darkness inside, I realized there were dozens of rats inside with a couple in the ceiling beams about 2 feet from my face. fuck.
Haunted... I left.

*rats rarely squeak in real life.
They will use it for echolocation or to display fright or pleasure... lol, maybe aggression




Just when I thought I was out... they pulled me back in.

I never see or feel anything unexplainable. I think because I don't believe, I probably am not sensitive enough to experience such things. I am usually focused on not encountering other people so when I hear a noise, I usually slink off somewhere away and see whats going on.

When I first started exploring, I was always thrilled to run into other explorers and I would walk up and have a conversation with them, as I am a friendly person, until one day it was the police I walked up on and didn't realize it until it was too late. I got a ticket for trespassing that day. I consider myself lucky it wasn't something worse than the police!
