Abandoned Mental Asylum Scotland UK - Everything Left Behind 

PMSL! You were nowhere near either the Child & Adolescent wards - or the PICU, where the 2014 incident took place - both are in detached buildings that can't be accessed from the main corridors. I was a patient in both, from 1977 - 1981; and I have been locked in that completely empty room you mention, many times... (There is actually at least two of them in what was ward 4; and probably more in other departments too). You've done quite a good job of mixing those news reports, presumably to make it harder for people to identify; I assume you know what occurred in both cases? The wards you were in - and those endless corridors that linked them, mainly housed psychogeriatric patients - and I can tell you, there were no nice false ceilings or modern doors back then; and those baths look relatively new and not at all the enormously deep, enamel ones they replaced - that originally had heavy solid wooden lids to prevent the occupant from doing anything other than screaming, as alternate hot and freezing water was added and drained away... Yes, that's what "hydrotherapy" looked like during the first half of the twentieth century... The bath with the electric control panels are a safety feature for more modern use - mainly by people with little or no control of either bladder or bowels. There were an awful lot of terribly poor souls in places like that until quite recently - some of who most probably had been there for most of their lives and who may well not have been mentally ill at all when they were committed in less-enlightened times. They'd simply have made some mistake that was deemed socially undesirable in less-enlightened times - the classic ones including girls who got pregnant while they were still at school - and quite possibly also the boys who'd caused it - if they could be identified... A culture of abuse exists within the nursing and management structures of that - and associated hospitals. Note that I'm talking in present tense... Ward 4 may have moved into a nice new purpose-built unit with ensuite rooms for every patient, huge floor to ceiling windows and even enclosed garden space - but I wouldn't betting that they still get talked down to by their minders... Restraint only gets used as a last resort now - in theory; but if you've got a staff team and maybe even a nurse-manager who give into the intense pressure of their peers and turn blind eyes to what should not happen... They certainly still had the managers when I wrote to the then Chief Executive of the hospital trust in 2015 - both supporting my belief in the 2014 patient's version of the events - because I too was treated in exactly the same way, and in the same room, and in the same ward, 33 years earlier; and suggesting that it was extremely unlikely that any of the staff who'd been working on the ward in 1980 would still be doing so in 2014 - and so, that alone proves that the staff behaviour is cultural and not isolated incidents. But they wouldn't have it - and when I wrote back in response to their denial; they informed me they'd passed my correspondence onto the police without my prior knowledge - and that they couldn't see how that in itself constitutes an abuse of power! If you want to hear more horror stories, I have it all written down - so feel free to ask. For your future reference, I think you entered at the opposite end to the present-day hospital, and from the rear, over a grassy mound. Ward 4, of completely empty room and completely sadistic, sarcastic, bullying bastard nurses who'd literally drag you across nylon carpets thereby causing really painful friction burns that would be seeping and even bleeding as they tripped and then pushed you downstairs and then smashed you off the walls before pinning you to the floor, faced-down and injecting you with who knows what when you reached the said room - which you normally entered at about 40 miles an hour - such was the velocity of the foot that had just made violent contact with your arse - but, who would then close ranks and tell your enquiring father during his visit that what you were saying was "just part of your illness," and not at all real; and that your bruises had been self-inflicted... All for the slightest demeanour, like taking a short break from the daily relaxation exercises or swearing about the completely soul-destroying plastic basket weaving the called occupational therapy... And the Department of Child & Family Psychiatry was the single-storey building named Playfield House - about 400m behind the camera, where you took your title pic from. The white-harled section was the adolescent unit - which had 18 beds for 12 to 18-year olds from 1966-1995; while the yellow-brick bit had 10 beds for kids aged up to 12; from 1976 to 1995 - as well; as two 6-bed houses, into which whole families would move temporarily, for family therapy - whatever that was,

Remember doctors and nurses sometimes end up mentally ill after treating these patients for years. Which is why the feeling of heaviness, sadness, depression often overwhelm many explorers of these institutions. Don't take these feelings home with you always carry black tourmaline and burn sage around yourself when u leave the premises.

I think the person who screamed also called the police.

Sam and Jess thanks for keeping your vids original and fresh. I really enjoy your perspective. I recently cancelled my subscription to several youtubers because they became to repetitive with their explore. I like your way of mixing things up with your explores. Keep up your great work

That screaming was absolutely crazy! I jumped when I heard it I can only imagine the shock you all got! Keep up the great work guys!

If the walls could talk... I bet they’d have a lot to say. I can only imagine the secrets and horrors that went on there, the same that happens in asylums all over the world.

Great job on the intro footage and music. Also, Jess' narration sounds so regal. Being from Canada, I'm not the best at picking out accents of the UK, but her's sounds like the Queen giving a proper speech 😊. Great upload, guys.

To my Glaswegian ears the voice shouted “get the fuck oot eh ther”

OMG, that place is so creepy. The explore started out really good, looking at all the old things, then it got scary. I take my hat off to you Sam and Jess as you keep your cool even when your anxiety must be skyrocketing. Cheers from Australia xx

Love the narration Jess! xx

It wasn't a ghost or anything supernatural. There was probably just a groundsman that worked security and seen the lights from the torches inside. Would have also been that same person that called the police as it's not likely that there would have been police just hanging around an abandoned mental asylum in the middle of nowhere. Someone must have called to tell them people were in the building.

It is so sad that this happened to a child. Great Video :)

I hear a man shout “who the f**** up here?” Anyone else hear same?

Absolutely love the narrations. That's one of the things that keep me coming back. Love you guys xx

Sounds like someone screaming "Over effing here!", presumably whoever it was that called the rozzers.

It must take courage to do this type of explore. Some pretty horrific things must have happened there . Hats off to you for making this video Sam and Jess

Good evening jess and Sam .... sorry missed you live .... love ur explores especially haunted asylums ... much love to you both ..... stay safe 🙏❤️🙏✊✊✊🥰🥰🥰💓💓💓 xxxxxxxxx

I am so tired guys, Dead on my feet, but this upload soon woke me up. Great creepy fun, thanks Sam & Jess for sharing 🎩👍

Another fantastic vid keep up the good work sam an jess

This place isn’t abandoned and most of the wards up there are still in use. The person you heard shouting was most likely to security trying to get you to leave

Really enjoyed this guys. Great job 🫶🏻

I think they should get some DNA from Jess and start cloning more. It seems a shame to have only one.

On last nights exploring how did the police know you was there if the place is in the middle of nowhere. I would check for alarms or cameras.

Really enjoyed! Thankyou

Loving your uploads👌 if I’m not mistaken that hospital looks like Stratheden in Fife. A huuuuge Victorian complex with some later additions. However, if it is Stratheden, parts of it are still open and in use so perhaps your lights were spotted from the other buildings by staff and the police were called? The voice/laugh was so creepy! but did not sound like the police which I am noticing some people are commenting. Did the police sound like manic/deranged people...I don’t think so...Anyways keep the uploads coming guys 👌 and happy new year!

Don't ask for "something" to contact you if you're frightened by it. Didn't your Mom ever tell you to beware of what you ask for? That was probably one of the officers who saw your lights and yelled at you. Anyways, I enjoy your adventures and am grateful for letting us tag along. Thank you.....

Sam, "it's really creepy in here." Jess...looking at stuff. I love it.

Another great video guys 👍❤️

At first I thought it was as the Dutchess of Cambridge narrating at the start hehe lol ! Loving this explore it felt really eerie watching it must have been scary actually in thier.

If Walls could talk the horror stories that would have happened here shocking!

Stratheden is a beautiful place like , interesting there is still a way in to this day 🤔

good explore guys 👍👍👍

Ready and waiting guys 👌👌

Great voice over, Jess. 👍

Sould do a second explore there in Daylight. Less paranoia and more explore and details :) Also, Jessica. Your voice sound good on your video :) Do that more :) And are Karl relay that jumpy ?

Looking forward to this 😎

Best one yet in some respects. Keep up the good work :)

This is beyond my comprehension that a parent would put their child in a place like this in this day and time. It seems such a hateful thing to do. God love these children.

Interesting explore, i would not like to be in that place at night alone!

Speaking from someone who is Scottish the guy deffo said 'get the fuck outta here ', my stomach dropped it was so clear, don't know how you guys do this sort of thing lol

Reminder set.....ready and waiting people

I wonder if this is this one of the hospitals Jimmy Saville used to visit he had a house in Scotland

I would not talk to them, it's an open door, very often people take things home, demons can and do cling to one person.

Theres people living in there and they are probably stalking you to find out what you're doing there, they are probably trying to scare you to make you leave, if they were dangerous they would have met you straight away with aggression, becareful because sometimes you can get trapped in them places

cant wait for this one guys

This place is horrifying !!!! Trust the victorians to build a place with a real warm homely feeling NOT !!!!!!

Perhaps it was the police shouting 'who the f*** is here?"

Am a new fan loving Sam & jess

You guys are fab 💖

It looks amazing 👍 👍

Great video guys. I’ve been here a few times, the place is amazing. As far as the shouting male voice at the end goes, the hospital isn’t actually fully abandoned. The hospital site is made up of many buildings only some of which are abandoned. There are still patients, nurses and security staff in certain areas. It would have been staff who called the police. It’s also a well known site locally and not hard to reach, there’s always been signs of other people every time I’ve been.

if there is foxes about they like to make a screaming noise and if you're not familiar you would think its a child or woman in distress they do it at night to communicate and when mating 😁 sounded like the voice said "there f*cking here" then "paul" its hard to tell 🤔

My exes mother was a patient in here years ago and they should've just kept her locked in the fkn place when they shut it down. She's a genuinely evil person.

excellent exploration, greetings from Mexico

wow that was a brilliant video fair play that has to be paranormal if no one else was about i would advise anyone to watch this video !!!

The police shouted "Get the f*ck out of there" The police were being humorous.

I believe that you are not alone in places like that. They are there.

Looks a stunning Location with lots more to investigate

Hi Sam and Jess I think it was paranormal. Especially with the other sounds you heard. Best video yet. Too bad the police showed up would have liked to seen more.

AMAZING xx

cant wait!💞💫✌

10:35 tiny female voice Help!!17:20 very faint male voice " those Shoes over there!!"

This is great.

I Love Jess.

I know this video is a couple years old, and I wish y’all could go back in the daytime….having spent time in psychiatric care I’d love to go and explain a lot of the stuff that’s there. Lolol

Great for Halloween visits 🙌🙌🙌

Just found your channel by accident. Love your content, not fabricated like alot of others. We don't have too many interesting detelect buildings in Aus.

the painting is actually the end of a cot/crib

Wow Thanks guys. Somone did shout, but who called the Police on you??

Came here from Facebook as Im curious where the ‘evil laugh’ came from.

Oh No this one is too scary for me to watch

Guys if you just knew what is inside that place ...all of you will run away.my advice for your own safe explore those places in the daytime.all of you are not ready to handle what I can see. At least in the daytime easy to find the exit door.

I all honesty I live in Scotland and a lot it Is in the middle of nowhere, itll be someone out walking there dog shouted for a laugh and then phoned the police

Love that you use the music from seven days to die

You need to go back and do a proper hunt,with all the crew

Probably someone else there and they set off the alarm you heard?

This one is definitely haunted, you weren’t alone in there. The paranormal was going on . Dark forces and restless. spirits keeping you company.

It's wonderful everything isn't smashed and covered in spray paint.

Sadly not an abandoned hospital and where you heard the voice was a patient area. Yes some of it has been closed off but the rest of the hospital is occupied. You probably caused distress to the patients or the staff in the adjoining wards.nThe area you were in was not a children's area.

Wow I watch a lot of taps over past 29 yrs so know what to listen for. I heard voices more than once older female voice

I'm jazzed to see one without spray paint and vandalism ❤

I left a pair of trainers in my room and we prayed for the souls who had been in there previous the kitchen roof calapsed i don't suppose after that anyone would have occupied it we had dry damp and the three lads i believe died from the swine flu there which we had a contamination or so they told us i never seen the three lads after that

Mental asylum ! Love these creepy places !

I work for this trust, it shut cos it’s not fit for purpose and the new building is attached to it

Did you see the shadow person at the start of your explore it was behind matt

All I got was F-ing Leah 🤷. Played back at lower speed and the guy definately said oh F-ing Leah....

Is it going to be good sam and jess

Could've been a screaming spook. More likely it was some strung out squatters trying to scare you away from their area of the building. Scary damned video either way.

Jess... you sure you're not Kate Middletons long lost sister ♥

Donde queda eso?,, en que pais? (perdone no se ingles)

creepy noises,,,,,,,,,, ,, 'Picture on the wonk' takes me back to growing up in Fishponds,, Cops seemed cool just asking you to leave.

I think it’s haunted honestly I wanna visit this place as I’m Scottish

There's another place like this Just outside Dundee it's called strathmartine it's been closed for along time now

Your hearing Spirits that didn't cross over. It is common in Asylums and closed prisons.

That screaming sounds to me like someone saying (they are fucking here) sod that man you guys kept it together I’d have been out off there like a fire had been lit under my ass 😱

I wouldn't go in there for love nor money my nerves would be all over the place. Have you ever seen a ghost or spirit. Creepy explore for sure,God knows what would have taken place inside those walls. Glad i didn't watch this at night, Definitely heard a male Scottish voice it sounded like "Get the f**k out of here. 😱🥺

The voice sounded like it said “what are you F****n doing here. With an accent. Then a laugh.

Where is this?

Love you both! Crazy place! Makes me want to go as I'm in Glasgow 😯Big loves guys ❤ that guy shouting get the fuck oota there sounds so real and loud!! Wtf was this near any roads or anything? That was no way the police shouting as pure Scottish af the police wouldn't shout it like that 😂😂 that's crazy... there must have been somebody that shouted that!? Who called the police?? I don't think it was paranormal but wish it was lol

What’s the name of the asylum?
