Yea and if they fix it all up all that will be gone…I say keep an eye on it in case something major needs done but leave it as is because that’s the whole experience of waverly…
I live in Louisville and have been here 3 times. what’s crazy is that it’s literally like right behind a neighborhood. Can you imagine living in one of the houses and looking out your back door and seeing this? But yeah, they need to leave it as is, and not renovate it or use it for anything else. It’s a part of history. I saw so many shadows and the body chute was creepy as hell.
My papaw lived here for a whole entire year, then realized he didn't even have the illness. ): He lived a very long (and hopefully happy life) after he got out. He passed away a year ago and I miss him to this day
If you went to waverly you didn’t leave... being there for a year he would’ve contracted the disease. Even doctors and nurses lived on sight. So that’s definitely not true.
When we lived in Indiana we used to go to the Waverly, you can see faces in the windows watching you, even though no one was in the building, a man would stand on the roof by the bell tower and just fade away, you can hear kids laughing and playing at what used to be their playground. Our son is autistic, and about 15 years ago, we were at the Waverly, and we heard our son talking, my husband and I turned around and my son was shaking hands with someone and talking, and I said David who are you talking to, and he said my friend, he wants me to go play with them, and I said not this time son, we have to go. I'm not sure if they've finished restoring it yet, but from the pictures I've seen it was a beautiful sanitorium.
I was at Waverley overnight a couple of days ago. I'm very skeptical of ghosts. I'm an atheist, so, no belief in the supernatural. Howerver, there were a few things that are hard to explain. We heard footsteps going through a couple of the rooms as though there were doors connecting the rooms---and there were not. We pretty much ruled out the possibility of it being footsteps through the hallway as those sounded different. We said hello and heard a "hello" back from a distance. It could've been just a coincidence as there were others in the building, but it was immediately after we said "hello" and it just doesn't seem very plausible that it was another person. We heard a door shut that we don't believe to be from anyone else in the building. My wife and a friend both saw a figure stand up inside of one of the patient rooms out of their peripheral vision. Even if all of these things can be explained away, I was still scared shitless to walk through those hallways. I don't think there's any amount you could pay me to walk through there by myself.
Me and 3 friends “explored” Waverley in I believe 1994 when it was basically unowned and just rotting away. Scariest place I’ve ever been, and not because of ghosts, just because of the massive size and amount of odd things we found. Padded rooms, basement doors bolted shut front the inside, things like that. Real “house on haunted hill” vibe. We attempted to leave via the fire escape on I believe the north end, and came to find out it ended on the 2nd floor... we hung dropped to get out of there, no way were were climbing back up that fire escape to go all the way back through the building to get out.
My mom goes past that hospital to get to her work, she leaves at 3:00 am and she always sees lights flickering on and off THAT THING SCARES THE CRAP OUT OF ME
I'm so glad that people are fixing up this place. I personally love historic places and if those were "left alone" like some have said about Waverly then I shudder to think of all of the wonderful buildings that would be gone. It is possible to reuse an old structure even one with a dark history and ghosts but it's important to be respectful and accurate. By the way, my grandmother had TB but survived it thank goodness. It's a brutal disease.
Me and a group of my Army friends went on a overnight self tour were they just pretty much let you walk around and it started at 9pm and ended at 7am, needless to say I left around 11pm, it started to get to creepy for me. Wheelchairs were moving by themselves and weird noises.
Many wouldn’t consider a place like this to be beautiful but even in disrepair, there’s always been something about Waverly that’s absolutely captivated me.
Been there a few times. A native of around Louisville- Live in Lexington now, heard some things , however not enough for me not to stay all night there by myself. I’ve seen death through my own eyes. I’m 30% burned by 3rd degree burns - passed away for almost 2 mins as a 4yr old in 1989. I seem numb since then. However it’s one of the most active places I’ve ever experienced in my life. Great video
I was lucky, extremelyy lucky, to be able to do a nighttime tour, near Halloween, here. SUCH an amazing & beautiful place. I do have to admit, when we got to look around upstairs (5th floor, I believe) in the dark, my bf & I both, felt very serene. Not spooked at all. Not to pooh pooh anyones experiences, we personally just felt peaceful.
We there In like 2010 and became a believer of ghosts. Kicked the ball in the child wing and it rolled back to me. Saw an apparition of a nurse. Went to the body chute and footsteps were coming up the stairs. Heard groaning. Doors slamming. Definitely wanna go again
There's a lot of old hotels that are haunted.. that are still in business. Even the Lizzie Borden B&B gets a lot of guests and its known to be haunted. These haunted locations get guests that are paranormal enthusiasts. If the Waverly Hills Sanatorium's renovations are completed and it officially opens as a B&B... you can bet the place will get booked up... people will be lined up for the opportunity to spend the night in the world's most haunted former TB hospital.
Steven Pierce Haunted hotels are big attractions, to a lot of people. There are societies that travel together in tour groups, just to visit these hotels around the world.
Ghosts don't care. They're in their own world and mostly aren't aware that other people are in their space. We're all probably ghosts in someone else''s world.
There is a hospital in my town with a very similar past. It’s called the Jackie Withrow Hospital in Beckley WV. Part of the building is still used to this day as a state run nursing home. I’ve know people that have worked there and they have all said you can feel the presence of something there. One lady I knew that worked there said you could literally taste the sadness of that place.
I’m a very spiritual person myself, I have been since my childhood and I’m 60 years old now buddy, there’s a very old saying, were you find suffering, you will find spirits, I was born in 1962 and I was born with TB and luckily, I think it was during the 1950s that they found a cure for it.
My great grandmother was born 2 years before that building was built, she lived in Louisville. She lived until she was 93 and can't imagine how difficult things were for her throughout her life. Now we're worried about having Wi-Fi and smart phones 😒
I'm a Louisville native. I grew up not too far from Waverly Hills. It's a massive place and very intimidating and creepy just driving by. Not only have there been deaths in the building but outside on the land as well. Within the past 20 years.
People... Its not to be a bed and breakfast. Its being converted into a 4 star hotel.. Complete with a restaurant and a convention center. The 4th and 5th floors will not be touched.
My dad grew up near there. He used to ride up the hill and then fly down the body chute tunnel on bikes, with his friends (because you could go 'fast') not knowing what it was used for. Those days, you could walk right up to the building and wander around in it, and no one cared.
I grew up 4mins from this place.. A CLOSED Waverly Park was where I first messed around with someone.. maybe 3years later a childhood friend got electrified while dirt biking and died at that very spot .. just my lil Waverly story 👍🏼
Excellent documentary! I've learned a lot about this famous location in a little less than 15 minutes. And despite the fact it was filmed during daytime, the producer still manages to share with us the particular atmosphere that transpires throughout these long peaceful but nevertheless sinister corridors. Great job!
Thank you VERY much for the kind words! Nice to hear Serge! I am happy that you learned some things and enjoyed my look into Waverly Hills. Many Thanks!
Yeah, it takes on a wholly different feel at night. Walking up to it in moonlight with only small flashlights is incredibly ominous. I about turned around and walked back down the little road we came up
I would come for that!!!! You'd be surprised how many people would come to a place where they can have a little paranormal experience hopefulness and have a great time! From a customer perspective, it would be pretty awesome to have an "experience" and know they will be going back to the safety of the home they are comfortable in.. I say market that stuff. I'd stay there a night or two!!!
BigSharkk they should do an experiment. fix the place up nicely, and have guests who don't know about the history past, to stay there for free. and then give a survey at the end of their stay Because Europe has a long history of generations of people. large spots of hauntings should exist, but there are only limited amount of stories. so I call BullShi+ on hauntings
This is very interesting. Such significance in history. It would be so nice to see a property like this be used as a historical museum, showing the uses and artifacts that have been found on the property. Here in MA, Danvers State Hospital had beautiful structures, property, etc. instead of preserving and educating people with the property, developers built town houses and apartments only preserving a small portion of the original Hospital. It is just so sad that historical places that had significance in people's lives whether positive or negative, are disregarded, it is still history. Properties like these are our history; and should no be devalued by cheaply built apartments. So so sad.
Sometimes only 1 body goes to the morgue on my shift, other nights as many as 8 or 10. And I only work an 8 hour shift, it's a big hospital and we have a pandemic going on still
The music is creepy - Waverly Hills Sanatorium is creepy - But still a cool place - Thank's for a great tour...Looking forward for a new adventure with you 😊
Very nice production sir! You should definitely do more work like this. I really appreciate your attention to the history and the film work is worthy of a big network TV series. I watch a lot of these types of film and yours is certainly standing tall against most others.
After seeing this featured many years ago on "TAPS Ghosthunters", it's interesting to hear more about its history. I hope the renovation work continued! How are things with the building now, in March 2023?
Thank you for watching! I felt the same interest after seeing the Sanatorium featured on Ghost Hunters and other shows. It was always on my list of places to explore. Even solo during the day, like this one. Unfortunately, I have not been back since filming this years ago. Kind of curious myself...
+Dan Oshier Productions "YES", I really like these , but the truth is 9 out of 12 can be very deadly and that's no BULLSHIT, as you people say " THE GREAT HAPPY HUNTING GROUNDS", if you bother them they will attach to you, follow you where you go an there is nothing any one can do about it, UNLESS, you have a medium to help you!.. Thanks for hearing me out and PLEASE pray to ST. MICHEAL to watch over you. Go in peace.........
This video is awesome. So much better than the ones I see filmed at night. You really caught the atmosphere of the building by filming in the day time. I have always been fascinated by this place and this is the best doc I have seen. Much more detailed and just the grandiosity of the place. And I am only halfway thru the video but I had to comment on how much I love it. Also when you walk you make very smooth movements and it flows naturally. Unlike people who walk and make you seasick which I am guilty of at times. lol Anyway, very excellent. Thanks for posting!!!
lol...we would have had to pay to film our documentary at night. And seeing as I am a one-man production, you bet your ass I wasn't walking around there for the first time, alone, and at night! ;-)
I was surprised to see a scissor-lift around @10:45. Working in warehousing most of my life, I've never seen one abandoned (even if non-functioning). Love the video, though! Great work and commentary! Thank you.
Hi Dan Oshier i came across this video you did and found it to be really interesting. I have watched a few videos on this and to show the outside of the body shoot was fantastic. I have never seen the outside. Great work really enjoyed this video. Also to see it in daylight was great.
I live a few miles from Waverly Hills but I’ve never been. They offer ghost tours, even overnight ghost hunting tours (during the summer I believe) and it’s a haunted house for Halloween and they have a laser light show for Christmas. It’s a gorgeous building, even still it is a stunning sight to see up on that hill. It’s fenced off so you can’t loiter around yourself, which is for safety reasons most likely. Great video! 👍🏼
Jeffrey Hooie Thanks for watching and your kind comments Jeffrey. This was my first attempt at a documentary and was very fun figuring out the process. Rock on! 🤘
I have been on a tour inside of the building. With some of my friends and family. It is HAUNTED (in case you didn't watch the video) I actually got my hair pulled. I went into the room where the nurse hung herself. (502) I am pretty sure that I saw her. Since my mom Is a nurse she felt her presence (which anyone/everyone could) and mom got her hair pulled. Which she screamed out in pain
Spirits are everywhere, even in your own home if you listen closely. Unfortunately some spirits stay nasty the same as when they were alive on earth, they don't suddenly become nice just because they are dead. It's a shame that these places are left to disintegrate and become danger traps. Maybe a BnB would be a good thing.
Russell Britt They're actually called jinn. They're not human nor are they a dead spirit of a human. Most of them are sheer evil. The evil ones are also called demons. They can enter homes and posses humans and animals. They pretend to be the sprit of a love one who has passed away but they're most certainly not. By very carful around them.
How awesome is this I would really love to visit this location I'm a native American who's really interested in the paranormal I love the history and knowing that u will feel the emotion and sadness and how the doctor's feel working there I love the video u made there in Waverley hills and thanks there where more to it than I thought
I've been on the 1/2 and full night tour with my niece many times at Waverly. The problem I feel now is the fact they allow 50 people on the night tour when before they only allowed 10. It is difficult to find a quite place especially if you are using equipment. My niece and I experienced at lease three instances of things happening. Between the 1/2 and full night tours I must have been on about 12 tours.
there is nothing in this building... not even furniture. all these ppl making us fool. i have seen dozens of videos associated with this so called haunted building but no one of them could show the evidence. its fake propaganda. to be a ghost inside this man made structure. i don't believe in ghosts at all.
Nitin Sharma I wasn’t around anything I was in an empty hall that doesn’t explain the cuts. There is a lot of dust so that might explain the choking, but the spirits I saw were legit.
It's definitely real...i went in 2007 for a concert and didn't even go in the building i saw a light come one and there was not even a light bulb in the socket. There is no rational explanation for that..Just saying.
Excellent video.I really wish the owners whoever they are would not allow ghost hunting there anymore.Please let the spirits of the people who died there,Be at rest.It's very tragic and sad.Thank you for posting....
Dan Oshier Productions Thank you so very much. I have definitely subscribed to your channel. Very well produced videos.Keep up the professional quality that is reflected in your videos. Have a safe and productive new year.Sincerely John.
I live 15 minutes away from Waverly. That place is dear to our community, and if they do end up turning into a B&B, it won't last very long. not only will the spirits cause harm, but all us locals will try to maintain its historical relevance to Louisville.
Don't you fucking understand that when you feed a spirit more mortal power, that spirit which may become eternal can do serious and deadly harm to real people. I know of such stories written about actual people losing appendages and almost their lives working and being in these places day after day.
I live not even 10 minutes away. In fact, I just got back from a "haunted house" attraction that they hold every year all October. Very scary. But what I can say, is that my family was left to guard the place in the late 80's and early 90's. My aunt, cousins, and uncle. They say they continuously had to run off punks and call the police for idiots who came to vandalize. They also had to run off the homeless, simply because it was their job. There was a mattress on the second floor that they would sleep on. Eventually, they had to call the police to make them leave all the time. But my family says they never, NEVER encountered the slightest paranormal activity for all the years they were guards.. Not a single moment. They often joke and say that the only thing that haunted that building was them lolol... Do I believe it's haunted? I... I'm not sure. I certainly wouldn't go in there alone! Not even NEAR the building alone! It's very unsettling.... VERY. But again, for all the years my family guarded it, they state that they never once had a paranormal encounter. They were the Calhoun's. I won't give all of their names, but search Jim Calhoun and see if you can find any information on him as proof! He died in 2001 when I was little. But he certainly did his job back in the day (:
I and 3 friends from U of L snuck into Waverly in 98 before it was a tourist attraction and was private property. The guys hired for security scared the piss out of us when 2 cars pulled up and several guys got out (about midnight) and two of them came rapidly up to the 4th floor where we were on the balcony. We'd heard of gang activity and seen indications of it inside....we froze, initially thinking it was gang members. Never got up to the chute as we were escorted before reaching it and basement crematorium was inaccessible except thru busted windows at ground level from outside - which none of us were ending thru into pitch black with floor some 8 feet or more down. So we missed 2 of the most haunted sections. It is creepy as hell walking up to it in moonlight and creepy inside but I never saw, heard or felt anything supernatural - though that doesn't prove anything. I'd like to go back now that its cleaned up and guided....it was cluttered wreckage, very unsafe for us to be in there. I heard the chute collapsed not long after
I had seen a ghost on your waverly hills video when you talk about the nurse who had hung herself after you walk down the steps and you make a right into the room and if you look in the far door way you can see two shadows one that is swing like someon had been hung and the other is on the floor same area .
I have been on a number of their tours. Either 1/2 or full night. Once they started allowing 40 or so people for the longer tours it became almost impossible to get your gear set up in a way that you don't get people and their flash lights all the time. Haven't gone back there for that reason. Had a couple things happened, but that was when a smaller group was allowed during the longer tours.
Nice video, wish it were longer. You know they say construction on sites like this tend to make paranormal happenings occur more. I would of put cameras throughout the whole building to catch any sitings
This is my favorite vid about Waverly hills. Very informative. I'd like to know what the chanting type of music was, would like to get the cd. I heard 28 days later in there but the other stuff 9min into it is so creepy
That was so amazing, i have seen this place so meany times, and you brought so meany things to light, you have answered so meany question for me, thank you very much for your hard work you put into this, assume video!!
I live about 20-25 minutes from Waverly Hills. My first time going up there 2003 was quite a trip. Been up there a few more times since then. Very active place is an under statement
Dan Oshier back 2003 I went up there with about 4 other people in broad daylight. The most eeriest feeling I've felt in my life! Witnessed a ghostly figure of a lady in all white hanging from a tree. Nobody said anything to each other. I couldn't get my car in gear fast enough to get off that lot after seeing that. Out of curiosity we went back up there a few more times after that a few years later.
Where I'm from they turned the haunted hospital into an awesome hotel n resteraunt called the assylum and it makes big bucks .. People like the haunted experience..
I went to visit this place about a month ago but sadly it was marked for trespassing so all I could get was a picture for proof that I've actually been. But I do plan on going for the ghost tours really soon I'm really hyped and I can't wait
I live minutes away from this place. Born and raised in Louisville, I had not heard of this place until a few years ago. I was shocked to learn that my hometown housed one of the most haunted place in the world. I visited this place. It was just as it is pictured here. There are a LOT of orbs in some of the rooms. For me (I'm an opened minded sceptic...Contradictory, I know), I toured taking the information in with a grain of salt yet wondering if any "paranormal" activity would transpire during my visit. I would try and "feel out" each room I encountered. At one point, my group was taken to this one area (this place is HUGE). I want to say it was like another building? As soon as we walk in I looked around and noticed these pipes above located on the ceiling. I "felt" I saw a woman being tied/handcuffed to these pipes. She was bleeding and I "felt" I saw her surrounded by a few 'staff' memebers. They were torturing her. I "felt" her isolatedness and pain. I said nothing about it. Just went along with the tour. Our guide briefly explained that during the latter years, some people were tortured in that room. My eyes got big but I never said a word. The other part was the tunnel. THAT was hands down the most uncanning, unexplainable bizarre encounters of that place. I don't recall what the tour guide said about that part. All I remember is I don't think anyone can go past the 5th step. I THINK I got to the 3rd....MAYBE the 4th. There is an unearthly force of gravity in that place. The best way to discribe it is like if one has ever dreamed of trying to run but their body feels like it's weighted down so heavy, they can barely move their legs. I felt a force pulled me in a way that my physical body could not go, like my body reached its limits and wanted to protect my soul from being sucked out. I cannot put this into a logical category. If someone would have describe this to me I may have considered them to be quite imaginative. If ANYONE has been there, to the tunnel AND knows what I witnessed, PLEASE, let me know. If you are one that has "heightened" senses and has been there and can on a different level, let me know. This may need an out-of-the-box explanation. Thanks
What can you advise people who are being invited to go work there this year due to the advert ? My other question is has the place been renovated? Is it active or in use of other things?

It's Shame
That's sad sorry for your loss
3 family members died there 2 nurses and 1 doctor...
For that place to be abandoned and vandalized, it sure still holds that unnatural beauty that sends chills down the spine. Not many places can do that.

I’ve seen death through my own eyes. I’m 30% burned by 3rd degree burns - passed away for almost 2 mins as a 4yr old in 1989. I seem numb since then.
However it’s one of the most active places I’ve ever experienced in my life. Great video
Its so good to know that one of these great buildings is being saved. A place that has been a big part of so many peoples lives over time.
OK was the moaning music necessary?
The Vanilla Godzilla lmao
i believe that was from the movie Sinister
Do people really need to spray paint grafitti on everything? They need to get a life and have respect for the people who built the place.
But that wouldn't be gangsta an sheet

Yea sure...all the rumors and stories are making your mind believe things are there that aren't
If the place is really haunted what makes them think ghosts are going to allow them to create a bed and breakfast there?
It would sure be scary to stay... Thanks for checking out my video!

Steven Pierce Haunted hotels are big attractions, to a lot of people. There are societies that travel together in tour groups, just to visit these hotels around the world.
Ghosts don't care. They're in their own world and mostly aren't aware that other people are in their space. We're all probably ghosts in someone else''s world.
Love the video! Bed and Breakfast is going to be a treat with how haunted it is.. I am sure most people won't sleep.
It was built for a good, honest purpose of helping patients recover from the plague. I can't help but watch with endearment.
There is a hospital in my town with a very similar past. It’s called the Jackie Withrow Hospital in Beckley WV. Part of the building is still used to this day as a state run nursing home. I’ve know people that have worked there and they have all said you can feel the presence of something there. One lady I knew that worked there said you could literally taste the sadness of that place.
Every time I watch videos about Waverly I end up with Metallica's Sanatarium in my head....
Thanks for commenting and watching!
Me to
Same..."Welcome Home"!
The architecture on the outside of the building is very art deco and beautiful!
I’m a very spiritual person myself, I have been since my childhood and I’m 60 years old now buddy, there’s a very old saying, were you find suffering, you will find spirits, I was born in 1962 and I was born with TB and luckily, I think it was during the 1950s that they found a cure for it.
My great grandmother was born 2 years before that building was built, she lived in Louisville. She lived until she was 93 and can't imagine how difficult things were for her throughout her life. Now we're worried about having Wi-Fi and smart phones 😒
Wow, thats crazy how it still holds its beauty! Its so crazy
I'm a Louisville native. I grew up not too far from Waverly Hills. It's a massive place and very intimidating and creepy just driving by. Not only have there been deaths in the building but outside on the land as well. Within the past 20 years.
People... Its not to be a bed and breakfast. Its being converted into a 4 star hotel.. Complete with a restaurant and a convention center. The 4th and 5th floors will not be touched.
Thank you for this glimpse on what life was like for these sad souls. I wish to visit one day!!
My dad grew up near there. He used to ride up the hill and then fly down the body chute tunnel on bikes, with his friends (because you could go 'fast') not knowing what it was used for.
Those days, you could walk right up to the building and wander around in it, and no one cared.
I grew up 4mins from this place.. A CLOSED Waverly Park was where I first messed around with someone.. maybe 3years later a childhood friend got electrified while dirt biking and died at that very spot .. just my lil Waverly story 👍🏼
Jesse Frost wow! Thank you for sharing your experiences Jesse!
Excellent documentary! I've learned a lot about this famous location in a little less than 15 minutes. And despite the fact it was filmed during daytime, the producer still manages to share with us the particular atmosphere that transpires throughout these long peaceful but nevertheless sinister corridors. Great job!
Thank you VERY much for the kind words! Nice to hear Serge! I am happy that you learned some things and enjoyed my look into Waverly Hills. Many Thanks!
No, thank you Dan Oshier Productions. I'm looking forward into watching another interesting documentary from you very soon. Until then, stay safe.
Yeah, it takes on a wholly different feel at night. Walking up to it in moonlight with only small flashlights is incredibly ominous. I about turned around and walked back down the little road we came up
Good thing I came across this, this Sanatorium has tons of history, love this building!
Glad you enjoyed it!
A bed and breakfast ??...Lets see how long that lasts after a few experiences with guests. Good luck.
:-) I bet more people would come in hopes of experiences!
Yeah let's hope that yeah can make a quick buck and take away a historical place a resting place for these saddened souls and disturb there home SMFH
I would come for that!!!! You'd be surprised how many people would come to a place where they can have a little paranormal experience hopefulness and have a great time! From a customer perspective, it would be pretty awesome to have an "experience" and know they will be going back to the safety of the home they are comfortable in.. I say market that stuff. I'd stay there a night or two!!!
There are haunted hotels that guests line up to stay at.
BigSharkk they should do an experiment. fix the place up nicely, and have guests who don't know about the history past, to stay there for free. and then give a survey at the end of their stay
Because Europe has a long history of generations of people. large spots of hauntings should exist, but there are only limited amount of stories. so I call BullShi+ on hauntings
This is very interesting. Such significance in history. It would be so nice to see a property like this be used as a historical museum, showing the uses and artifacts that have been found on the property.
Here in MA, Danvers State Hospital had beautiful structures, property, etc. instead of preserving and educating people with the property, developers built town houses and apartments only preserving a small portion of the original Hospital.
It is just so sad that historical places that had significance in people's lives whether positive or negative, are disregarded, it is still history.
Properties like these are our history; and should no be devalued by cheaply built apartments. So so sad.
Sometimes only 1 body goes to the morgue on my shift, other nights as many as 8 or 10. And I only work an 8 hour shift, it's a big hospital and we have a pandemic going on still
This looks much much real than any of the videos I've seen. Thank you for sharing this.
The music is creepy - Waverly Hills Sanatorium is creepy - But still a cool place - Thank's for a great tour...Looking forward for a new adventure with you 😊
Very nice production sir! You should definitely do more work like this. I really appreciate your attention to the history and the film work is worthy of a big network TV series. I watch a lot of these types of film and yours is certainly standing tall against most others.
B Caldwell Nice if you to say! Much appreciated!!! I have a few others in the works! Stay tuned :-)
I very much appreciate the kind words! VERY nice of you to say.
B Caldwell the music though?

manny manny word
After seeing this featured many years ago on "TAPS Ghosthunters", it's interesting to hear more about its history. I hope the renovation work continued! How are things with the building now, in March 2023?
Thank you for watching! I felt the same interest after seeing the Sanatorium featured on Ghost Hunters and other shows. It was always on my list of places to explore. Even solo during the day, like this one. Unfortunately, I have not been back since filming this years ago. Kind of curious myself...
Interesting video, I thought this video was from a show at first. Keep it up!
Thank you! Appreciate that!
+Dan Oshier Productions "YES", I really like these , but the truth is 9 out of 12 can be very deadly and that's no BULLSHIT, as you people say " THE GREAT HAPPY HUNTING GROUNDS", if you bother them they will attach to you, follow you where you go an there is nothing any one can do about it, UNLESS, you have a medium to help you!.. Thanks for hearing me out and PLEASE pray to ST. MICHEAL to watch over you. Go in peace.........
Andrew Lewis. Then all of those graffiti artists must have emptied a lot of those ghosts out of there.
Thanks for commenting and watching!
That nurse standing in the doorway is still very beautiful 😎
The pairing of the music, with this vid, is perfect! It really sets the mood.

This video is awesome. So much better than the ones I see filmed at night. You really caught the atmosphere of the building by filming in the day time. I have always been fascinated by this place and this is the best doc I have seen. Much more detailed and just the grandiosity of the place. And I am only halfway thru the video but I had to comment on how much I love it. Also when you walk you make very smooth movements and it flows naturally. Unlike people who walk and make you seasick which I am guilty of at times. lol Anyway, very excellent. Thanks for posting!!!
Lisa Hermanator I think the reason why he documented this at day time coz he was afraid to do it at night :)
lol :D
lol...we would have had to pay to film our documentary at night. And seeing as I am a one-man production, you bet your ass I wasn't walking around there for the first time, alone, and at night! ;-)
lol Hell no, I wouldn't either!!!! That place is even freaky in the daytime!!!!
@@danoshierproductions For sure !! I would love to visit there also............in the daytime !! lol......
I was surprised to see a scissor-lift around @10:45. Working in warehousing most of my life, I've never seen one abandoned (even if non-functioning). Love the video, though! Great work and commentary! Thank you.
Very well done. The historical introduction was very good. The best part of all was that finally someone knows how to pronounce Louisville correctly.
Rebecca Moberly thanks for watching and commenting!
Hi Dan Oshier i came across this video you did and found it to be really interesting. I have watched a few videos on this and to show the outside of the body shoot was fantastic. I have never seen the outside. Great work really enjoyed this video. Also to see it in daylight was great.
I live a few miles from Waverly Hills but I’ve never been. They offer ghost tours, even overnight ghost hunting tours (during the summer I believe) and it’s a haunted house for Halloween and they have a laser light show for Christmas. It’s a gorgeous building, even still it is a stunning sight to see up on that hill. It’s fenced off so you can’t loiter around yourself, which is for safety reasons most likely. Great video! 👍🏼
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Stumbled on this documentary! Really cool! I've always been fascinated by this place!!
Jeffrey Hooie Thanks for watching and your kind comments Jeffrey. This was my first attempt at a documentary and was very fun figuring out the process.
Rock on! 🤘
I think it is wonderful that they are rebuilding as a B & B. They have a lot of work ahead of them! Best of luck to you!
I sure hope and pray all ghost get guided and find their way back home...
XoMo's Manifesto's
omg... Is that "Joe" from Facts of Life"? That shit.s funny.
Cheers 🍸🍸🍸
Very Cool, Thank You. Long Live the Ghost of Waverly Hills Sanatorium..........
I have been on a tour inside of the building. With some of my friends and family. It is HAUNTED (in case you didn't watch the video) I actually got my hair pulled. I went into the room where the nurse hung herself. (502) I am pretty sure that I saw her. Since my mom Is a nurse she felt her presence (which anyone/everyone could) and mom got her hair pulled. Which she screamed out in pain
I Love that music at 8:05 and again at 9:27 LOL 😊
For some reason I get deja-vu when I see that at the time that, that music is playing
Spirits are everywhere, even in your own home if you listen closely. Unfortunately some spirits stay nasty the same as when they were alive on earth, they don't suddenly become nice just because they are dead. It's a shame that these places are left to disintegrate and become danger traps. Maybe a BnB would be a good thing.
DEAMONS RIGHT ACTING AS A PASSED friend OR LOVED 1 HAVE YOU EVER HURD OF FIDDLER GREEN ARE YOU SMART ON THIS TOPIC I NEED A LITTLE HELP
Russell Britt They're actually called jinn. They're not human nor are they a dead spirit of a human. Most of them are sheer evil. The evil ones are also called demons. They can enter homes and posses humans and animals. They pretend to be the sprit of a love one who has passed away but they're most certainly not. By very carful around them.
Thanks for commenting and watching!
That’s my number one dream place to go investigate
Hopefully you will get there Sir. Thank you for watching.
We are going for our overnight tour in october, wish us luck. We are excited!
Awesome! Tell us about your experience! Happy Spooky Haunting! xD
A bed and breadkfast?!?! That sounds like a horrible idea.
Most haunted place on earth, but video didn't show one ghost. Thanks for the video in any case.
Hans Hoerdemann spend a night there lmao
Did what we could on a budget of $0 Sir... :-)
Thank you for watching and commenting.
More coming soon!!!
I like the historical approach.
You can’t just expect too see a ghost, they’ll show themselves when they want.
The most fun place ever
How awesome is this I would really love to visit this location I'm a native American who's really interested in the paranormal I love the history and knowing that u will feel the emotion and sadness and how the doctor's feel working there I love the video u made there in Waverley hills and thanks there where more to it than I thought
My grandmother died at Waverly on the second floor. It's a beautiful building with alot of history.

I've been on the 1/2 and full night tour with my niece many times at Waverly. The problem I feel now is the fact they allow 50 people on the night tour when before they only allowed 10. It is difficult to find a quite place especially if you are using equipment. My niece and I experienced at lease three instances of things happening. Between the 1/2 and full night tours I must have been on about 12 tours.
After hearing they tried to cure T.B. there I realized no wonder its haunted.
there is nothing in this building... not even furniture. all these ppl making us fool. i have seen dozens of videos associated with this so called haunted building but no one of them could show the evidence. its fake propaganda. to be a ghost inside this man made structure.
i don't believe in ghosts at all.
Nitin Sharma I went there, I got cuts and I got choked. And I saw the shadow people and the creeper scary stuff
@@cheesecheese4715 there may be some rational explanatio
Nitin Sharma I wasn’t around anything I was in an empty hall that doesn’t explain the cuts. There is a lot of dust so that might explain the choking, but the spirits I saw were legit.
It's definitely real...i went in 2007 for a concert and didn't even go in the building i saw a light come one and there was not even a light bulb in the socket. There is no rational explanation for that..Just saying.
Excellent video.I really wish the owners whoever they are would not allow ghost hunting there anymore.Please let the spirits of the people who died there,Be at rest.It's very tragic and sad.Thank you for posting....
Thanks for the compliment John! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Dan Oshier Productions Thank you so very much. I have definitely subscribed to your channel. Very well produced videos.Keep up the professional quality that is reflected in your videos. Have a safe and productive new year.Sincerely John.
I love the place. I do believe the whistle story.
I live 15 minutes away from Waverly. That place is dear to our community, and if they do end up turning into a B&B, it won't last very long. not only will the spirits cause harm, but all us locals will try to maintain its historical relevance to Louisville.
Natalie Fautz pretty neat spot!!! Spooky!
Rae Fautz me too
You CAN maintain historical relevance and support its upkeep and a local business as well..
Don't you fucking understand that when you feed a spirit more mortal power, that spirit which may become eternal can do serious and deadly harm to real people. I know of such stories written about actual people losing appendages and almost their lives working and being in these places day after day.
Adrian Neils Well then....That must really suck for people who live in haunted places. They must lose appendages left and right..
I'll add this video is more frightening than the tour , well done
I live not even 10 minutes away. In fact, I just got back from a "haunted house" attraction that they hold every year all October. Very scary. But what I can say, is that my family was left to guard the place in the late 80's and early 90's. My aunt, cousins, and uncle. They say they continuously had to run off punks and call the police for idiots who came to vandalize. They also had to run off the homeless, simply because it was their job. There was a mattress on the second floor that they would sleep on. Eventually, they had to call the police to make them leave all the time. But my family says they never, NEVER encountered the slightest paranormal activity for all the years they were guards.. Not a single moment. They often joke and say that the only thing that haunted that building was them lolol... Do I believe it's haunted? I... I'm not sure. I certainly wouldn't go in there alone! Not even NEAR the building alone! It's very unsettling.... VERY. But again, for all the years my family guarded it, they state that they never once had a paranormal encounter. They were the Calhoun's. I won't give all of their names, but search Jim Calhoun and see if you can find any information on him as proof! He died in 2001 when I was little. But he certainly did his job back in the day (:
Very cool! Thanks for sharing your family's relation to this property with us. Very interesting!
@@Tranquility32 I'm happy that you found it interesting ^-^ And thank you for reading it lol I know it was wayyyyy too long ehehe...
Would be kind of a cool gig. Be easy these days with motion sensors etc set up
I'm amazed how clean the building is, usually abandoned buildings are falling apart with trash everywhere.
It took over 20 years to get it that clean

I used to live in the apartments in front of it!😐 I could walk up there but they put a gate soon after the found out people was goin up ther
THANKS ANDREW LEWIS for that. Nice video MR. OSHIER.
I could check this out next month with my cousins. I bet they've already been there, along with 90% of the local teens and urban explorers.

I will be visiting Waverly Hills in June. I can't wait!
I and 3 friends from U of L snuck into Waverly in 98 before it was a tourist attraction and was private property. The guys hired for security scared the piss out of us when 2 cars pulled up and several guys got out (about midnight) and two of them came rapidly up to the 4th floor where we were on the balcony. We'd heard of gang activity and seen indications of it inside....we froze, initially thinking it was gang members. Never got up to the chute as we were escorted before reaching it and basement crematorium was inaccessible except thru busted windows at ground level from outside - which none of us were ending thru into pitch black with floor some 8 feet or more down. So we missed 2 of the most haunted sections. It is creepy as hell walking up to it in moonlight and creepy inside but I never saw, heard or felt anything supernatural - though that doesn't prove anything. I'd like to go back now that its cleaned up and guided....it was cluttered wreckage, very unsafe for us to be in there. I heard the chute collapsed not long after
They had Glen Gardner TB hospital in New Jersey, back in the sixties. And there was Greystone Park hospital there, back in the sixties. Now abandoned
I had seen a ghost on your waverly hills video when you talk about the nurse who had hung herself after you walk down the steps and you make a right into the room and if you look in the far door way you can see two shadows one that is swing like someon had been hung and the other is on the floor same area .
Thanks for commenting and watching!
Going to investigate it next year!!! Can’t wait!

I have been on a number of their tours. Either 1/2 or full night. Once they started allowing 40 or so people for the longer tours it became almost impossible to get your gear set up in a way that you don't get people and their flash lights all the time. Haven't gone back there for that reason. Had a couple things happened, but that was when a smaller group was allowed during the longer tours.
Nice video, wish it were longer. You know they say construction on sites like this tend to make paranormal happenings occur more. I would of put cameras throughout the whole building to catch any sitings
Sierra Pettigrew Thank you! It would be interesting to explore during the heavy construction!
This is my favorite vid about Waverly hills. Very informative. I'd like to know what the chanting type of music was, would like to get the cd. I heard 28 days later in there but the other stuff 9min into it is so creepy
That was so amazing, i have seen this place so meany times, and you brought so meany things to light, you have answered so meany question for me, thank you very much for your hard work you put into this, assume video!!
Thank you Tim! This was a super fun and interesting project! I am blown away by people's responses and kind words!
Thanks for commenting and watching!
I get a very Boleskine'ish vibe,.. i get a Alister Crowley's House feel about Waverly hills idk Y
Though the type of building is different, the music sound like that in "The Shining."
I live about 20-25 minutes from Waverly Hills. My first time going up there 2003 was quite a trip. Been up there a few more times since then. Very active place is an under statement
Thank you for commenting Latoya. Did yo have any experiences there?
Dan Oshier back 2003 I went up there with about 4 other people in broad daylight. The most eeriest feeling I've felt in my life! Witnessed a ghostly figure of a lady in all white hanging from a tree. Nobody said anything to each other. I couldn't get my car in gear fast enough to get off that lot after seeing that. Out of curiosity we went back up there a few more times after that a few years later.
The song while y'all be exploring the halls just gave me a sleepless night :'( Scary ass fuck
Great that the music of Aghast is used in this. Very haunting music.
Where I'm from they turned the haunted hospital into an awesome hotel n resteraunt called the assylum and it makes big bucks .. People like the haunted experience..
Looks fun to investigate 🔬
Isnt this the hospital on Dixie highway in Louisville Kentucky Cuz I could of sweared I had a tour here
I LOVE THAT MUSIC AT 8:05
Same! Thanks for watching!!!
@@danoshierproductionsFor some reason I get deja-vu at the time that that music is playing

Poveglia Island in Italy is the most Haunted place in the world!
I went to visit this place about a month ago but sadly it was marked for trespassing so all I could get was a picture for proof that I've actually been. But I do plan on going for the ghost tours really soon I'm really hyped and I can't wait
I live minutes away from this place. Born and raised in Louisville, I had not heard of this place until a few years ago. I was shocked to learn that my hometown housed one of the most haunted place in the world.
I visited this place. It was just as it is pictured here. There are a LOT of orbs in some of the rooms.
For me (I'm an opened minded sceptic...Contradictory, I know), I toured taking the information in with a grain of salt yet wondering if any "paranormal" activity would transpire during my visit. I would try and "feel out" each room I encountered.
At one point, my group was taken to this one area (this place is HUGE). I want to say it was like another building? As soon as we walk in I looked around and noticed these pipes above located on the ceiling. I "felt" I saw a woman being tied/handcuffed to these pipes. She was bleeding and I "felt" I saw her surrounded by a few 'staff' memebers. They were torturing her. I "felt" her isolatedness and pain. I said nothing about it. Just went along with the tour. Our guide briefly explained that during the latter years, some people were tortured in that room. My eyes got big but I never said a word.
The other part was the tunnel. THAT was hands down the most uncanning, unexplainable bizarre encounters of that place.
I don't recall what the tour guide said about that part. All I remember is I don't think anyone can go past the 5th step. I THINK I got to the 3rd....MAYBE the 4th.
There is an unearthly force of gravity in that place. The best way to discribe it is like if one has ever dreamed of trying to run but their body feels like it's weighted down so heavy, they can barely move their legs. I felt a force pulled me in a way that my physical body could not go, like my body reached its limits and wanted to protect my soul from being sucked out. I cannot put this into a logical category. If someone would have describe this to me I may have considered them to be quite imaginative.
If ANYONE has been there, to the tunnel AND knows what I witnessed, PLEASE, let me know. If you are one that has "heightened" senses and has been there and can on a different level, let me know. This may need an out-of-the-box explanation.
Thanks
What can you advise people who are being invited to go work there this year due to the advert ? My other question is has the place been renovated? Is it active or in use of other things?
Damn i need sum of that good stuff u smokin bro
There are so many places like this in the u.s , I'm from NY and long island has a couple of places way way bigger but also way more vandalism.
