I know that this is years late, but I think it’s hilarious that out of all the creepy and potentially haunted places in Harrisonburg, like the Quilt Museum or the Hardesty-Higgins House, y’all are creeped out by a building that most of us in the city were born in and is now JMU’s student success center.
Are you kidding me? Haha. I was born here. JMU owns the property and it was never abandoned. The building was used as office space and classrooms for awhile after the hospital moved to a new location. It was demolished in 2014.
Damnit why does every abandoned mall/hospital remind me of a zombie apocalpyse/outbreak. Looks amazing, I wish I visited one abandoned building like these one day..
There is just something about hospitals that creeps me out. My mom works in one (she's a nurse in the ICU) and sometimes I have gone with her there to get paperwork or something and it makes me feel kinda uneasy.
I kind of enjoyed your video. I probably had over 40 surgeries myself, mostly due to Goldenhar's syndrome, which caused facial defects and more at birth. I think it would have been cool to tour an operating room or two, maybe even strapping each other down on a gurney and going for a ride. I kind of enjoyed your personalities when doing the tour. Thank you for the video!
I would never use a elevator in a abandoned building like what if it breaks and you get stuck. It puts you at danger since the elevator hasn't been maintained god knows how long it can just collapse with you in it. Why are the lights on in the building it looks like it's still in operation.
I was born and still live in Harrisonburg, in the old Hospital as well. As of now, the old hospital campus is the property of JMU, and they will prosecute if you're in the building(s) without authorization. They have since repurposed the building
JMU owns this hospital, used to be RMH, Rockingham Memorial Hospital, if i'm not mistaken. I actually was there when it was a functioning hospital and yes it is very creepy in there. The layout the floor plan and lighting make it really weird. I always had weird feelings walking around in there lol.
It was part of the hospital and in the middle of renovations at the time to become offices for JMU. The basement was the morgue, you also went up to the rooms- pediatrics I believe and then came down to the xray dept. Totally full of asbestos and is now gone
Many many people were born there and died there so I'm sure it is creepy it was never abandoned harrisonburg built a new hospital and sold the old hospital building to jmu and they use it... many hr offices are there's especially for the dining staff and jmu is making it into a college health center...
Good grief, there's nothing creepy or abandoned about this. They built a new hospital and moved in 2010 and the university bought this building, so of course they're renovating. What are you doing in there if you don't know that?? I've walked every single one of those halls. Yes there did used to be a beauty parlor there for patients, what a stupid comment you made about a hair dryer. And why wouldn't there be flies after 4 years? Do you really think it's supposed to still be clean after all this time? Stop trying to sensationalize something that's perfectly normal.
That place didn't look abandoned & I don't think it was. Why would power, and possibly water, still be running to it if it was? Who was that guy with a bag at the end of the video leaving? And most of all, why would they not even bother to lock the sliding doors? At least have these people who explore real abandon places have a little challenge getting inside.
Okay, "abandoned" may have been too strong a word. A few people were still going in and out of the building, but the vast majority of the building appeared to be unused and unoccupied.
yea my sister classmate said it was haunted cause their grandparents r ghost hunters i said it cant be haunted she was on a James madison university field trip she is in 5 grade
