You got it! We’re gonna be going back to Northville soon, I’ve got a little experiment in mind that I wanna try so stay tuned for that! If you have any suggestions on types of places you’d be interested in seeing please let me know & I’ll do everything I can to make it happen(:
That's actually incredible... I wish I had a chance to go there before the main hospital building was taken down! Heard so many interesting and intriguing things about it!
Came here to explore in the morning 4 or 5 years back, I just remember how quiet and peaceful it was. I wanted to explore more but the people I was with got spooked too quick so I needed to stay with them being that my phone was dead and I drove
Damn sorry you didn’t get to see all of it! If you wanna see the difference between night & day at this place definitely check out the part two we posted!
I used to go there about once a week back in 2008ish, when they had security driving around 24 hours a day so we would have to sneak past them late at night. The first time we went we located a couple entrances to the "Northville tunnels" which were welded shut the next time went. The main building had a fair amount of paranormal activity I witnessed but surrounding smaller buildings were amazing! I found photos and files of patients which was kinda creepy. I have definitely heard screams and voices which made my hair stand up (I'm not easily scared) but it got even worse when I took a hymnal book from the confessional of the church and put the room sticker with the name of a patient in the cover.
6:11 Me and my friends were just caught by police while exploring that building. We were in the building by the entrance to the basement when the cop car passed by and saw our car parked by the building. They let us off with a warning and told us to never come back.
was your group by any chance smoking weed there?? we may have been there at the same time as you lol, we were on the roof of a building when we saw a cop roll in, we thought he saw us for sure so we started running through the building for the woods when we heard people talking, laughing & smoking the good good, it'd be pretty funny if it was you guys lmao
I’ve been here 3 times and never got caught lmao, but some freaky stuff definitely happened to us between all the times we went. It gave off some freaky vibes but it was beautiful
The tunnels are HUGE and run under the entire length of the property. So many people were dying here that they used the tunnels to transport the dead bodies so other patients and people in general wouldn’t be alarmed with all the dead bodies being wheeled out through the hallways 💀
@@sammiix5450 No that’s not what the tunnels were for. The tunnels were mainly to support the patients that had TB while it was the sanitarium. They would transport infected patients with TB through the tunnels to another bldg within the facility so it didn’t infect other patients living there. Staff also used the tunnels as a short distance to another bldg as there were many. There were a few deaths here and there but not a lot especially when it turned into a psychiatric hospital. Look it up and you’ll see some of the information. The stories of all the deaths etc, are just tales to make it seem scarier. I hope this helps!
@@lildee2626 I live not even 20 minutes from there lol believe me I’ve looked up tons on information and drive by it almost daily, and also know people personally who worked there. I’ve also been inside numerous times before it closed down lol. The tunnels were of course used to get from place to place easier, but yes they were used to transport dead bodies. Towards the end before they closed they exceeded the maximum amount of patients by a large amount, one of the other reasons they closed. They could no longer properly and humanely house all the patients they had, along with losing money, budget cuts, other facilities opening for patients, and lots of deaths from the extreme numbers of people they weren’t meant to have. There’s tons of reasons and honestly it probably closed for the best, but high numbers of patient deaths is no secret at all.
The home court for my CYO basketball team was on this campus in the early 90s. Interesting fans would show up from time to time. Too bad the Sheldon tunnels/medical campus was knocked down well before this site. A video tour of that area would have been very interesting.
Some of the tunnels weren't collapsed, They would fill them in with dirt and what not so you couldn't use them OR you might have ran into a building that is no longer there. That place is amazing !!! Be safe, lots of cops out there BIG TIME !!!
My dad used to go here with his friends when they were teenagers. He said that one of his friends fell through one of the holes in the roof and passed away after striking one of the beams.
I have a history with the hosptal when it was still semi functional and contained patients. If you would like any info on which buildings held what, I might be able to help. Hit me up.
i live like 5 minutes away and was there like three days ago. they tore down most of the buildings but theres still a few that are pretty badly damaged. also like three teenagers set some stuff on fire the other day so now theres extra fire damage and you have to be extra careful but its a great adventure
where did you guys park to get in? there’s like a strip mall nearby and a hole in the fence but it looked sketchy also a building called cooper standard but seemed suspicious.
If you drive down the road with the complex on your left side, once you pass the strip mall you’ll see a pull in for an apartment complex. Go to the very back of the complex you’ll see a little parking lot with a white shipping container. Park there, you’ll see a trail leading into the woods, follow that trail until you find a big gravel trail. Once you find that you go left on that & follow it until it leads you back into the woods, from there you should find a green fence on your left, follow that until you find an opening.
This is nothing compared to the Original Northville hospital for feeble minded children (Northville tunnels). Was torn down in the 2000's. Sat abandoned longer than it was open! Went there as a teen in the early 90's. Underground tunnels for miles. Was the best adventure I've ever gone on. Only true OG's will understand my last sentence. Boiler room, welcome to hell.
What building was that with the tunnels? I went in some tunnels like those underneath the small buildings on the far east side of the property near 7 mile. That was over 10 years ago when I last went. Sadly I never got to go in the main tall building.
I can't tell you the exact location of the building because I don't really remember, the part of the video where Keaton's eating trailmix as we walk to the next building, that's the one we found the long tunnel in!
I got caught at the asylum last night after the first time I went we found the tunnel system and didnt go fully down the bend at first either the building apparently has the most aspestice in the whole facility says the cop and that was where we were caught at.
Do you know which building you were caught in?? The tunnels were really sick tbh, they went on for what felt like forever. Heard a lot of sketchy things regarding police & going there at night, only ever had to run from the police once during the day, if you go back try going early like around 10-11 AM. Glad nothing bad happened to y'all!
I’m so sorry brother, I didn’t see this until right now, I’d definitely recommend going it’s totally worth it. All the stories I’ve heard from people who got caught, the worst thing that happened was a warning so just don’t be a douche if the 5-0 roll up on you!
@@michigansmosthaunted1870 bro how do I PM you. I went here several times in 2010 I would love to go back. I am experienced in this kind of stuff just don't know how to get there without driving up to it. I live nearby
I remember one time exploring and going down a hall and coming up to a room and you can smell the smell of death so bad that it made me sick. We never went in the room because of the smell and I almost threw up but something was rotting in there..... Probably an animal or something but who knows. I still get chills thinking about that. Also be careful in the tunnels, I was always the last guy never the first ( I wanted to be first ) You can always see whats in front of you but not really sure whats creeping up from behind you. I never had any problems but I always heard other people behind me to exploring. Its a very dangerous place but a very intriguing place as well.
The tunnels are gut wrenchingly tight, my worst fear is being cornered in there 😬 thankfully that’s never happened! I wish people would stop starting fires there :/
Yeah unfortunately there's still a lot of cops. We always go through the trail in the back to avoid any cops sitting in the front. Usually you can see them, they sit in the front right corner of the complex if you're looking at it from the back. If you go through the back, once you get closer to the front you should see some shipping containers on the right side of the property with what seemed to be an old parking lot, usually the cop will sit right there.
never had ANY problems going. police/security NEVER patrol the area, worse case scenario is a cop sees you crossing the street or parked by the trails.
Nobody ever wanted to be last in the tunnels so I had too...... It wasn't the sounds in front that scared us ( because of the flashlights ) it was always the nosies from behind that were creepy !!!!
I saw that! When we went back to film part 2 of this, we noticed the stage in the auditorium was half charred :/ really sad because if that stuff didn’t happen, these places probably wouldn’t be patrolled by police so heavily
The only building stand as of now in 2023 is at 616 in the video and you guys must have came in the back side cus it like a 5 second drive to that building from the entrance lol
We always avoided the main entrance, too many stories of cops waiting there! Plus it’s always fun to hike through the woods :) It was sad hearing about the demolition, hope you got to check it out before they started!
This was recorded around early April, I wish I could give you an exact date but I can't. I would definitely recommend going here, we've been there about 4 times now & each time we try to get there by noon. Every encounter we've had with people they've been very friendly. Never had a run-in with the police there but we've heard stories that 90% of the time they just ask you to leave and that's it!
I went to the asylum this past weekend and I heard a bang bang bang while I was there in the middle of the night while I was near building N in the back If I get help with searching I'll help with maps underground
So imagine this how a new covid starts, same situation exploring a closed down unsanitary hasn't been cleaned Ina decade building, someone get a little cut or breathes in suming, how much percent of that is possible in 2022 🤔
We also did get caught by security a couple times and they were cool but the cops put us in handcuffs and almost got each of us on a couple felonies and I was almost 18 at the time. But I had so much fun I would do it all over again if I could
I knew a guy who worked there. He was an Orderly. When he was young he liked working there. But he also Deaf. He ended up getting attacked by patient come up from behind. He left
Couldn't be happier to see this crazy shit! Thanks guys for having the balls.
We love to see this crazy shit too brother thank you for the support it means the world 🤙🏻

On roof of the main building you could see downtown Detroit. Was up there in July of 2003
That's actually incredible... I wish I had a chance to go there before the main hospital building was taken down! Heard so many interesting and intriguing things about it!
Did you work there?
@@JBRProductions01 i was part of a amateur radio group that that had a a repeater on the top of the building
@@jamesmcelhenie5265 Wasn't there also a tornado siren on top of that building?
@@JBRProductions01 not sure on that. That area of Northville has the highest land elevation in Wayne County (above sea level)

How do you know you weren’t imagining the screams?
could be someone knew you were there, so they welded it shut, but know this, on your next explores, use every precaution and leave nothing behind 😑

I've been there many times.there were a few creepy moments I've had there but still very interesting to explore.

I've always wanted to check out the inside of those buildings! so cool:D
It’s an EXTRAORDINARY place! I highly recommend checking it out, even if you’ve never urbexed before!
used to go there in the 90's. great memories!
I use to work there pushing a mop. I got this job because I lived at Hawthorn Center also work in the old G-building making these toys.
Those tunnels take you to some crazy rooms. Bad things happened there
