What a place-so much weird energy still hanging around in there after all these years-especially in those darker areas in there.Creepy explore,but awesome nonetheless!!
I wish they would preserve these beautiful structures and make them into museums or something too many have been wiped off the earth despite their pasts its an important part of history and these places should somehow be protected
Hey. Really amazing videos. It's funny to see that you explored way better places than others channels with similar content and way more subs. If you could, please include more parts of buildings because those things really look epic (but yeah if not safe don't do it). Anyway keep up good work :) i hope more people will explore your channel and sub to you.
UXRO thanks a lot for your kind message! It's nice to see that my hard work is appreciated! :D - I will try to show more of the buildings from now on but I try to limit my videos in length to only show the interesting parts as you probably know, lots of rooms are just walls :(
Hehe, don't worry. They're awesome already. What i'm trying to say i really love buildings that you show, most of other explores just go to random ugly house and record as you said empty rooms/walls and you record epic mensions and stuff that usually won't show up in other videos, so i'm kinda interested into seeing more parts of those buildings. Important part is that you enjoy exploring and showing us what you think it's interesting for us to see :) anyway i'm really excited to see more videos from you.
I remember going there with my Dad (r.i.p.) in the early sixties delivering bakery equipment. There was a man on a bicycle on the approach who stopped us and asked if we liked his horse ! Bless 'im.
What the fuckin fuck dude ?! This building looks so damn awesome and look how huge it is ! The drone view was just great and i was like "holy shit this building is just beautiful". Great content dude !
Thats so cool could you tell me a postcode or address for it as I've tried to visit it but cannot find it??? It would be a big help if you could thanksss xx
Ok, so ‘electric shock’ treatment is still happening, it’s called ECT. Lunatics was a very old term, and not one that was used in my time. The sensationalism that a lot of explorers adopt kills me. I worked somewhere like this for years. The reality was nothing like you’d expect. I honestly don’t understand the obsession explorers have with morgues either. They were pretty boring places.
Lee Rielly I'm pretty history obsessed, especially when it comes to the less savory details, such as the asylum and homes with murdered occupants. So sounds terrible, but it's truly fascinating. So yes, to answer your question, especially if there are similar viewers such as myself! 👽
They weren't even ill. Just dumped by either their family or by the community. Shy people & Women who never had children were deemed morally insane & tortured.
I came here a few months back. As you can see from the video, the place is ruined. Although there is a nice church at the back & the morgue is still intact with the trays for the body's. The underground tunnel system also has wheelchairs and more trays for bodies. There isn't really any security though and when I went there was actually lots of teenagers just hanging out on the roof. I have been twice and the only place I couldn't find was the nurses home! Although in a field next to the asylum there is an abandoned Welsh nursery also!
Just subscribe. Great vidoe and with so much information about the property . Thank you. Looking forward to see meny of your videos. Thank you for sharing ☺
Really beautiful place from the outside shame about the inside though , hope you find some more places like this one . interesting place . thankyou lee ,just subscribed .
Thanks a lot, it really is a stunning building, unfortunately just this week it was announced that the building will make way for new houses :-( so this may be one of the last videos of the place. I have lots of places planned and some of them are pretty spectacular, thank you for subscribing :)
Oh and by the way it was not called The Denbigh Asylum! No it was called The North Wales Hospital Denbigh. In no place in the REAL name does it mention the word "Asylum" does it?
Lee Rielly It is important especially to those families who had relatives who actually fied there after being there from vhildhooh. My Aunt at the age of 13 was dtruck about the head seversl times by a boy of also 13 using a floor brush. Before then she was a carefree child who was doing well at scholl. But this other boy who struck her with the brush had a crush on her and she rejected him. In revenge he nearly killed her. At that time a child could not be prosecuted so he got away with it. My Aunt languished in this hospital for life. Tragic really as i often see this now elderly man as we only live in a small town with a poulation of around 5,000. I once went to visit my aunt in the hospital as i wanted to go. I flund it very teriffying. I was scared in case one of the patients got hold of me. The attmosphere there was very tangitable. When you visit places like this hospital please have some respect for those who died there whilst being patients. Thank you.
so happy you ticked of your dream man. loved the videos and the facts literally this sunday about to drop my version of events was a mad place to explore. we even got down into those underground tunnels ;)
Oh my god man, great video I went to go & explore Denbigh asylum but police were all around us! So thanks for finally letting me have a look inside :-)
Great to see you came across no guards etc. Some people have been chased off, partly because the place is so dangerous. Since your visit I believe there was a fire. I don't know how much of the building was destroyed. Maybe worth another look one day. However, if you fancy looking at another building that has artefacts in it, you could go to Lluesty Hospital just outside Holywell - not far from Denbigh. People get access to it a lot. Used to be a workhouse. Cilla Black's mother used to live there when times were hard. I've seen videos of the hospital as it is now, abandoned urine bottles etc all around. Maybe look for other films first.
fantastic. you can actually speak without repeatedly going err. you spoke about the history of the place. you do not think you are american. you've filmed it very well.
Been in the morgue and the chapple. Also been in parts you didn't see. The lift and the door to nowhere!. It's a 3 hour drive for me but np I'll go anytime if you want to re-visit Denbigh again
Love the research & historical details you add to your videos. Drone footage is amazing! Really the only way to get a feel for the size of this place. Couldnt image how eerie would feel standing inside those buildings. Simply amazing!
The morgue is pretty easy to find... if you are going through the fields at the back of the building. You go to the chapel and you'll see some crates of roofing tiles. It's just on the left
Hey Lee at 7,01 on the second floor window the window with no frame there is something there, your camera goes from left to right a couple of times and on both occasions you can see something in the window and on the 3rd time it's gone, just thought I'd mention it.
Maybe you stepped back in time, a kind of dimensional doorway, even though you couldn't see the "Ghosts of the Living Past" you felt them. In any case, cool video.
I remember visiting here when I was a little girl. My father was playing football for a local team and I think it was a charity match against some of the patients of something (I may be wrong - I was 7 or 8 (1988/9 if I remember correctly).
Nurses home is impossible to get in now its over grown with brambles and proper locked up and if I remember right the morgue and torture room is lower ground
You are right n that you wers verh lucky indeed not to be caught by those dogs! They were security dogs and that there were regular patrols using alsatians as security dogs. So yes those were security dogs that you heard in the background.
hello pal.. if you would like to find the morge its in the isolation part..just north of the chapel its a really ery building and the tables and everything are still intact..great video and i there is so much more for you to visit.. nurses home is supposed to be the most haunted..ive been a couple of times over the last couple of months like you says you keep going back and finding new things lol..great video
Congrats on your first asylum video :). good content although there are supposed to be old cages left over from where they caged the patients in to keep them in a certain area and also a wheelchair is there somewhere. here is a newspaper article on the place. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2982467/Inside-asylum-Eerie-pictures-abandoned-psychiatric-hospital-patients-caged-lobotomised.html
It's all so sad that people was tretued like lass then inmates in presuns. I like to put a inmate in a mudren preson to have a good look at this old asylums & get he's or her's say?
Back then those were absolutely torture chambers. Also a lot of children were given up with disabilities. Families could not afford to take care for them so they were rendered to places like this or even turned over to the nuns. Everyone in the medical field wanted to learn and these subjects were perfect to be tried out on any new medical idea or meds etc. I love your videos you love history and knowledge as much as I do. It is rare to find someone as young as you to do this. If i were a bit younger I would fly over and go with you on your journeys! You my dear are the best! Thank you for letting us view history and what it really was.
Thank YOU Marie for your support, it is greatly appreciated 😀 - The history of "asylums" certainly are dark and controversial, such eerie buildings that loom over the surrounding area!
At 7:09 on the video you can go down that little gap and youll get to the main tunnels then go right till the end then left then up a huge steepy slope n your in a hidden ground
Just saw your video on finding locations, All of the 4 I have seen so far are great. Here's to hoping you getting up there with channels like Exploring With Josh
Thanks a lot matey! - I doubt I'll ever get anywhere near that, struggling to get to 5K, let alone 2M haha 🙃 - Appreciate that you came over to check out the channel though 😀
Hi Lee. The morgue is right at the back opposite the chapel. It's labelled as 'isolation hospital' on the map. The 'villa' on the map was actually the secure ward called Bryn Golau but has been demolished. Great explore and fantastic quality! Subbed. - Dei.
please be careful lee i just got an update there was another arson at this facility check out denbigh vids for more info they have alot of security and police more than they did before please dont get caught
Thank you for your concern Judah, I won't be going back to Denbigh. I have seen it now and just hope many more people can see it before it becomes a real no-go zone. Thanks for watching 😊
Thanks for not showing the bathrooms. So many explorers do but one bathroom looks like another to me. I'd rather that few seconds be used to see other areas....so thanks. Regardless, amazing building, sad to see it go to waste.....
Debi Bliss no problem at all, I see no reason in showing every single room, especially if they're all ruined, too many videos are just 30 min+ full explores and I don't really like making that style of video
Explored this place in September by far one of the greatest places to explore, got some great photos, such a amazing place I wanted to stay there all day but couldn't, luckily as we left and looked back through the front gates the police had just turned up, great video pal keep it up.
Tom Whetton Thanks Tom! It really is a marvellous place, it's a wow moment as soon as you first see it. Glad you got out of there without any trouble :)
It is when your talking to camera and there is a cut between every sentence and the picture jumps. That is the distracting part and detracts from the quality of the rest of the video.
I am glad that this old hospital for that is what it was has burnt down! I had a relative who because of an accident that she had when 12 years old, spent all her life there and she eventualy died there. There are many people who died there and are yet to pass on. So it dissapoi ts me to see videos such as yours where people have very little respect for the dead! Perhaps now that it has burnt down (and many believe that it burnt down as a direct result of people such as you being there and damaging the old place further) the old hospital will be left in peace x
He hasn't damaged the place at all. He's treated it with respect and gave many a great insight into its beauty as a building. Poor comment towards a great guy.
I was 1 of the last people out of there I was a security guard when it closed
Isn’t there no security there anymore,
Usually there is the odd security people there
@@thedarkriddler7318 there is a mate of my dad is a security guard there
decent place to spend a night and have fun with some nuns :D
What a place-so much weird energy still hanging around in there after all these years-especially in those darker areas in there.Creepy explore,but awesome nonetheless!!
Yep it was a crazy place to go! I think it was a great one for my first ever asylum exploration!
Wow!!
Be careful
I wish they would preserve these beautiful structures and make them into museums or something too many have been wiped off the earth despite their pasts its an important part of history and these places should somehow be protected
I agree
The architecture at this asylum is so awesome. Great video by the way!
Thank you mate! Glad you enjoyed the video :-)
It is! :)
Wow they build it pretty quick actualy :o
Hey. Really amazing videos. It's funny to see that you explored way better places than others channels with similar content and way more subs.

Beautiful building!! Visited a few times in different seasons. Wouldn't go in there alone...
Thats so cool could you tell me a postcode or address for it as I've tried to visit it but cannot find it??? It would be a big help if you could thanksss xx
Really good video very well edited

Amazing but please dont use the word lunatic. Its extremely offensive and disrespectful
I'm blown away every time I see one of your videos. As always drone shots are on point.
Cheers buddy! I'm glad you like the drone shots, not many people seem to comment on those too much.
Great videos! I really love the history that you put into your exploration vids. 👍🏻😊
Thank you very much, I'm glad that you find the extra effort to be worth it! - Do you think it's something I should do for future videos?
Lee Rielly I'm pretty history obsessed, especially when it comes to the less savory details, such as the asylum and homes with murdered occupants. So sounds terrible, but it's truly fascinating. So yes, to answer your question, especially if there are similar viewers such as myself! 👽
Surprised you didn't bump into Graham...
If you're still wanting to find where the morgue is its near the back part of the asylum sorta near the chapel
They weren't even ill. Just dumped by either their family or by the community. Shy people & Women who never had children were deemed morally insane & tortured.
The building is not beautiful anymore, it is a place from someone's nightmares!
I came here a few months back.
As you can see from the video, the place is ruined.
Although there is a nice church at the back & the morgue is still intact with the trays for the body's. The underground tunnel system also has wheelchairs and more trays for bodies.
There isn't really any security though and when I went there was actually lots of teenagers just hanging out on the roof.
I have been twice and the only place I couldn't find was the nurses home!
Although in a field next to the asylum there is an abandoned Welsh nursery also!
Very beautiful place, glad you had a drone
Great place, great video .well done.
Well done!! Great cinematography! Pleasure to watch!
I think the morgue is a part of the isolation hospital.
love your vids does not want you into trouble lee
Wow, it is so huge... Very interesting place.
Just subscribe. Great vidoe and with so much information about the property . Thank you. Looking forward to see meny of your videos. Thank you for sharing ☺

I have lots of places planned and some of them are pretty spectacular, thank you for subscribing :)
are you doing this alone? o:
Great video. You come across as a true urbex, respectful and knowledgeable.
Michelle Powell thank you Michelle, I'm glad you enjoyed the presentation and video 😎
Hi lee great video, what drone is that please?
Oh and by the way it was not called The Denbigh Asylum! No it was called The North Wales Hospital Denbigh. In no place in the REAL name does it mention the word "Asylum" does it?
Stop crying Christine, is it really that big of a problem?

Wow Lee, you are so lucky to have explored this!!! I would love to find one around Wa. area. Great find! Please check out my channel as well! :)
wow that place is magnificent!
Oh my god man, great video I went to go & explore Denbigh asylum but police were all around us! So thanks for finally letting me have a look inside :-)
My pleasure!
its very amazing, a perfection work of art as a building and for what it is!

Watching in 2020, great video, it’s a shame they have security there now.
fantastic. you can actually speak without repeatedly going err. you spoke about the history of the place. you do not think you are american. you've filmed it very well.
Great film.... If you want to go back I'd come with you. I'm solo and don't fancy going alone.
Been in the morgue and the chapple. Also been in parts you didn't see. The lift and the door to nowhere!. It's a 3 hour drive for me but np I'll go anytime if you want to re-visit Denbigh again
Love the research & historical details you add to your videos. Drone footage is amazing! Really the only way to get a feel for the size of this place. Couldnt image how eerie would feel standing inside those buildings. Simply amazing!
the nurses home is amazing inside. all original wallpaper, baths, sinks, fire places. in much better condition then the main building
So cool and creepy great video! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
There a different place and it Whitchurch mental hospital and it’s really creepy a girl screamed if you want post code please text back

can give u morgue direction's if you go back.. Tis easy to find...
The morgue is next to the chapel but be careful in there it's a death trap... Have you seen Denbigh Vids channel? Graham does loads on the asylum!
I remember visiting here when I was a little girl. My father was playing football for a local team and I think it was a charity match against some of the patients of something (I may be wrong - I was 7 or 8 (1988/9 if I remember correctly).

You are right n that you wers verh lucky indeed not to be caught by those dogs! They were security dogs and that there were regular patrols using alsatians as security dogs. So yes those were security dogs that you heard in the background.
That tiled room may have been used for hydro shock therapy??
hello pal.. if you would like to find the morge its in the isolation part..just north of the chapel its a really ery building and the tables and everything are still intact..great video and i there is so much more for you to visit.. nurses home is supposed to be the most haunted..ive been a couple of times over the last couple of months like you says you keep going back and finding new things lol..great video
You should go at 3a.m challnge hehe must be more scary nice video
OMG I have never seen such a large complex; what a waste to let it go. Any reason as to why it was let go?
Grouse vid i saw dis place on Hell on earth
Been here yesterday unfortunately it has got a lot of vandalism and been burnt 😕
That is one very hi tech building.
Kitchens are most awesome to see in these explorations, I just love old kitchens of an kind.
Congrats on your first asylum video :). good content although there are supposed to be old cages left over from where they caged the patients in to keep them in a certain area and also a wheelchair is there somewhere. here is a newspaper article on the place.

you are to scream do not be quiet. give it the ol Alfred Hitchcock
i go here all the time,if you want to re visit i can show some amazing parts of the asylum.

If i winlottety Ill go all over the world to explore abanded places
Lee meet me and I will explore with you and I will go in the tunnel with you
Also that name Sophie in red, looks like my writing that's freaky as.
At 7:09 on the video you can go down that little gap and youll get to the main tunnels then go right till the end then left then up a huge steepy slope n your in a hidden ground
carry some deli meat pups will be yer best friends
It's so beautiful & hunting.
Can you get in without the police stopping you??
Those aerial shots are amazing
Why has it not been developed?x
Don’t go down the tunnels babe x
You are my favourite Explorer!
Great investigation 😁😁
It is a haunted hospital as well.
It closed a year after I was born
Just saw your video on finding locations, All of the 4 I have seen so far are great. Here's to hoping you getting up there with channels like Exploring With Josh

Very interesting
lee your awesome great location
you are a patient
The building looks very impressive from the outside, but the inside is just a horrible mess.
Where do u park
Can you go in it ?
It is when your talking to camera and there is a cut between every sentence and the picture jumps. That is the distracting part and detracts from the quality of the rest of the video.
Ah okay, that's simply to cut out my pauses between talking or where I'm thinking about what to say, I'll bear that in mind in the future. Thanks.
I am glad that this old hospital for that is what it was has burnt down!
