I went there with about 5 or 6 friends of mine back in '05. We went up the train tracks around the back. We walked for about a mile or 2 and it was cold as fuck going through the tunnel. We arrived behind the back of the adult hospital and walked inside. I remembered seeing signs that read, NO TRESPASSING and ASBESTOS WARNING. The hallways had holes in the floor and walls everywhere, and I remember being on edge, hoping to God that cops wouldn't see us. I saw this dead vulture that was hanging from a wall with blood smeared around it. That shit scared the fuck outta me. It was like somebody had performed some kinda ritual or somethin. I don't think that we were the only ones there that night, either. I also heard other people screaming and acting stupid around there... Like the cats I was there with weren't? lol We explored the laundry room, which still had beat up and overturned dryers in it. Also, we went into an office, or a room which was on the 2nd floor. There were old newspapers EVERYWHERE from the late 70's and early 80's. I saw a few bed frames with jutted coils. I tried hard most of the time to keep from breathing in the air, as it was stuffy anyways that day, and the asbestos warning really freaked me out. I saw the former patient rooms that were derelict with ripped out toilets, and wiring strewn about, and the aqua colored tile... which I always associated with eerie, outdated hospitals. It certainly was a creepy experience, fun nonetheless, though. There was a full moon out that night, and I remember the back of the building looking beautiful with the moon reflecting on parts of the windows. Really eerie, but really beautiful stuff. Lord knows it'll prolly get demolished some day, and with all the cops that are there now, no doubt it was a great priveledge to say that I was able to see what I had saw so recently, and without getting caught. Heh-heh, I even had a dream about this place about 2 weeks back... Scared the fuck out of me. In real life I was with a few people... In the dream... I was ALONE. I saw shit in there, I hope nobody will see in real life. Glenn Dale is one place you DO NOT want to go to ALONE. ;)
