@@TheDailyWoo I'm so happy to see this type of content again brother! Bright Sun did great work, love their channel as well. Love some of the forgotten Disney stuff they have done. That forgotten Disney World resorts video they did blew my mind.
I really enjoy your channel Jake and yes your deep dive into this resort was fantastic, just a side note im diggin your travel reviews. the recent one on the worst cruise ship was a good watch...thanks for being a great ambassador for us canadians & keep doing what you do. Adam last two were just great, you got the sparkle back in your voice...that walk & talk did you good 🤘
The fact that you didn’t get hurt or encounter anyone aggressive on that property is amazing to me. I had so much anxiety watching this but could not turn away!! Be safe, Adam!!
THE CAROLANDO! Fifty years ago, on our honeymoon, Disney resorts were booked, so the travel agent put us there. It was called the Carolando Resort. We still have the map that shows where our room was. About 10 years ago we went there to look around. I don’t remember what it was called then, but there were people working at the front desk and a security guard let us drive around. It’s a shame what has happened to that place since then. Thanks for the video, glad you made it out alive!
50 years ago what Hotels were Available? Just curious as the Reason 17-92 in Osceola Co. became so successful was the fact that Disney could not house all of it's guest on site as it can today. Many of the Hotels were Family run & are now Hotels like the 1 used as the setting for The Florida Project
I told myself reassuringly more than once, while watching this, "it's okay, you know he makes it out alright, because he had to to post this!" And then I would drop my shoulders and breath in relief! Adam! Oh my gosh! Glad you faired well.
@@TheDailyWoo even through a building is abandoned. it can still be owned by somone. be careful. best advice if wants to go into abandoned buildings you should do reseacrh on who owns it and try to permission from the owners.
I actually get anxious when you are in a place like that. With all the druggies and homeless around, I think someone is going to pop out and threaten you. What a huge liability it is for the property owner to allow people to wander around in there. They could be sued for injuries sustained while exploring. Please be safe, Adam.
Adam should get complete credit for his documentation of Americana. So much of this country’s past is disappearing and I thank Adam for his efforts to show us what once was.
@@TheDailyWooit’s all good. You have tons of pressure to create content for a large audience of wide tastes. These exploration vlogs have been so awesome I’d say you are very much on your game.
@@TheDailyWooLove to see more of these abandoned videos! (At least in buildings without heavy security!) Very neat to watch! Lynnwood Hall is actually a very beautiful abandoned mansion in PA where tours can be done.
I find Florida so strange now. It seems like they are building on every single blank property, with no real plan. The sprawl seems so haphazardly done and honestly it's quite ugly. I love my home and neighborhood in Florida but all the new sprawl is starting to get to me. It's literally everywhere. Great video as always Adam!
I'm off 27 in Davenport and agree. Copy paste copy paste. All these ugly franchises and nowhere that feels like community or anything special. So many car washes. But of course they're needed when developers are cramming houses so close together with itty-bitty driveways and roads. Theyre row homes not single family. And we're all wondering why there's so much road rage. Disgusting what our commissioners are allowing 😒 💸💰👹
@@Hx3neyI agree I live in Indy and they had already done that here but my grandma lives in Tampa and seeing some of the neighborhoods there is so nice because it js not copy and paste homes unlike when I went to Orlando Florida which is just copy and paste everywhere
My gosh this episode is spookier than all the Halloween Haunt events you have been to. A real life first person horror video game where at every turn you may run into someone with a dog or an appropriately themed rock. I'm glad you escaped. Looking forward to the next one.
It's crazy how disheveled a place can get when the maintenance and care disappears. That's a freaky location. Makes you wonder why developers aren't on that land already. Very apocalyptical!! Great vid!
I much prefer these abandoned style videos of yours over the Disney videos that so many other people make. I started watching your videos around the route 66 Era and that was so cool. History and ghost towns and abandoned places is so much more interesting. This channel is absolutely one of the best channels on TH-cam and thank you for all the brilliant content. All the best. Cheers
Super sad - I stayed in this place when I was 8 years old in the 80's with my grandfather on the very first trip I ever took to Florida and Disney World. I think this hotel was a Hyatt around that time. I remember it being very nice and very close so we could get to the Magic Kingdom and EPCOT early. R.I.P. to that place.
Adam, I've been watching your videos since 2010 or pretty much since your channel was in it's infancy, and this kind of video reminds me of your early days. You were definitely the reason and a major influence for me to travel and film TH-cam videos as well. I've always said that you are the Godfather of Abandoned videos and to my knowledge you were the first to start doing them.
When you said you should have someone with you in this video. My mom says that everytime we watch videos where you are alone in abandon place or just exploring far off places. Shes worried something might happen and you're by yourself. We watch your videos together all the time. I got her to enjoy them amd she also quotes the way you end every video. Lol 😂😂. Love these videos cant wait to whats next. Thanks for the adventures.❤
I stayed there in the 70s on a Disney World trip as a kid at Christmas time when it was the Hyatt. It was a very nice resort. So sad to see the terrible state of the property. Thanks for documenting this.
Adam- you absolutely had us holding our breath when you were going through this place! Please take someone with you when you go into lonely deserted places. We love your work and are happy you are returning to places like you did in the beginning.
Yes, you should have someone or someTHING with you when you go to places like that. My anxiety level was out the roof. Glad you are safe and thank you for another awesome vlog. 👍
We enjoyed hearing you share your thoughts the other day; it really resonated. I never would have thought you felt any social anxiety--you film and post online almost every day! I appreciate the time you took to say hi to my daughter and I. You're right, it's weird and uncomfortable, but we felt at ease because you were so kind. No matter what you decide, we wish you the best and thanks for all that you do!
When you mentioned the hypothetical of former visitors returning to see this, it reminded me of Home Alone 2, when the family travels to Florida and the resort they’re staying at has become run down since Uncle Frank and Aunt Leslie’s honeymoon. Really enjoyed this video!
I will never get used to how in the US, most of these places will just be left abandoned for decades. In Europe, in most countries, that's almost unthinkable. Properties usually always get reused. Personally, when I visit the US, I love the drive from LA to Las Vegas for the same reason. To see all these places where no one ever sets foot anymore. It's why I'm a big fan of Adam. Seeing all these places where I will never be able to set foot.
The moment I saw that rooftop HVAC unit (which probably weighs tons) that came down through the collapsed roof, I would have noped out of the lobby. You are brave, and I was terrified the entire time you were in there even though I knew you obviously survived.
Time stamp 29.06 one of the curtains that is still behind glass moved. Your were definitely not alone all throughout that property. Enjoyed this video!!!
I got a "Hills Have Eyes" vibe when you heard that door shut by you. I feel like you were being watched the whole time and you didn't even know they were there
Glad your safe Adam but never forget to "buddy up" when exploring even if they are doing their own thing. Ill never forget being taught the buddy system in Elementary school. It always seem to work. Be safe in your exploring and looking forward to the next video.
Adam- you are so brave going to these abandoned sites- this one was very disturbing with the displaced chairs and the room with all the bedding on the floor. Very creepy😬
@@sharonatl yes, it’s Florida so it’s allowed, he should conceal carry, and not exactly peppers spray. There are all sorts of dangers, from crazy hobos that can use infected needles as weapons to lethal dogs like pitbulls running around, unleashed.
I remember when that place got built back in the mid 70s, it was pretty cutting edge back then. We stayed there a couple times (once in the 80s and once in the 90s), i still remember having breakfast in one of those alcove restaurants in the lobby. Very sad to see what its devolved to now.
Went back and watched Bright Sun Films walkthrough and unbelievable how much more the property fell apart in past year or so. Nice video Adam but do be careful! So much history and it closed so quickly and just left everything. Like a time capsule.
Adam I've followed you from the early days of the merlin shop and the abandoned golf course you did in the mountains. I've really missed your take on this type of content. Thank you for doing this again.
I'm a sucker for abandoned content so when I saw this upload from you I got so excited, but I have to admit I just finished watching Barbarian before watching this and the entire time I was on edge thinking something would pop out. Then when you were walking toward that blue curtained area I was audibly like "Adam noo" and was on the edge of my seat 😂. Great video, thank you for venturing into this place for us, it's shocking to see the difference between when BSF visited and now!
This is one of your most captivating videos I’ve seen in a long time! The tension was so thick, not knowing if someone was going to pop out or even just be chillin’ there. I can’t imagine what happened there. So much destruction.
After all those scary Halloween places and events, this is the first time I was actually scared! I felt like we were watching one of those movies and found myself saying, don't go down there Adam, several times and was freaking out at the though that you would, even though I knew the fact I was watching this meant you were just fine, it wasn't live! And my fascination with urban decay meant I would have been right there with you given the chance!
Adam did a good job at creating a sense of tension in this video, whether he meant to do it or not lol...must be something in the way he moves the camera around. My heart was racing a bit during a few parts of the video.
Another awesome video, ATW. It's really sad to see what has happened to some of these places. I'm trying to imagine what it was like.. Kinda breaks your heart a little.
I live in the area. For years I’ve wondered why such a large footprint of property was never redeveloped. Does anyone know if there’s a reason like possible sinkholes or perhaps something else faulting the property for easy redevelopment? Great video and I personally am appreciative of your wide variety of content, all of it.
What I know it was having problems with bookings and they were spending too much money on maintenance and had low income from guests since the tourism had died down at that time and they had to shut down in 2012 but in 2021 it was bought by a New York company and it was said renovations were gonna be done but it never happened so now it just sits here
I've passed by this place so many times while going to Celebration with my family and I'm glad you and BSF have made cool videos on it. A childhood dream of mine has been fullfilled!
I watched this one twice.. felt just as freaked out the second time.. Even though I knew you ended up being ok, I was mentally freaking out for you.. please be carful.. you are far to wonderful and amazing to loose if you were to get into true danger.. thanks for making the MOST amazing content .. greatly appreciate you and all that you do… I know it takes a lot of your time, but it sure means a lot 💙
I was blown away by this video on the resort. I used to travel every year on a golf trip to this area and was fascinated with this vacant property. Years later I wondered if it was ever redeveloped, I did not know the name of property to research it. Then Adams video came along and blew me away. Thanks woo.
I love when you do your videos like this. I'm sure it was a beautiful place in its prime. It's so sad to see the condition it's in now, I will never understand why people find pleasure in destruction of buildings. It's horrid.

Wow I forgot this place was still there! I remember visiting somebody here when it was up and running when I was younger, and then many years later I came back as a photographer and made some photographs with a friend. I remember walking through halls of wasp nests, absolutely covering everything top to bottom. Hovwever it was the only way to get in to a couple areas we wanted explore. Anyways very cool to see you finding interest in these very interesting abandoned places we have around orlando
You are the modern day Huell Howser. You deserve so much credit for all your documentation of this country and its soul. I bet that was one of the scariest October attractions yet! lol I still remember the Hai Li video. Spooky. Thanks for getting back to your roots and taking it back old school.
When i have gone by there so many times over the years. It's crazy how big the property is and how long it has been abandoned. I am surprised nothing has been done with the land there. It's in a prime location.
So cool!!! I thought at first maybe a storm caused those chairs to be embedded in the walls, but definitely someone intentionally did that. Awesome find!!!
Very cool video. Reminds of the old school days of your channels. I started watching your channels when you were traveling in your van doing abandoned places. I love everything you have done. The variety of content on your channel is great. Everything from theme parks, roadtrips, abandoned places, etc. I am a huge fan of it all because i am into all those things as well. Very cool. Thanks for another cool video
As much as I love all your content this is my favorite. I sub'd to you on your original channel because of these kinds of videos and it's great to see you bringing it back. In my opinion though, nothing will top your "Ruins Of Decay Don't Exist Near Disney World - A Tourism Video", but I was definitely getting familiar vibes watching this one today. Judging on the wicker / wooden frame furniture and "brass" metal chairs I'm going to guess this place was in it's prime in the mid to late 80's. Great job Adam!
Dude, this is old school Adam the Woo stuff. My favorite. I remember drinking with my girlfriend, and spending our days off watching your exploration vids back to back. Now we're married and we will watch whatever you post. You rock Adam the Woo. P.s, Scott on Tape is as sexy as they come. 😂
You’re not wearing appropriate heavy duty boots for exploring such a death trap! You could step on a number of sharp objects--tennis shoes --no good --against who knows what! Shards of broken glass - a bomb---dead body --+crazy people were or are inside there.
when i went i saw a dead body and a bald dude Guarding the entrance With a bat he would start running at u . he thinks he still “works” at the disney resort.
Adam you almost went behind that green curtain. I really wanted you to, but was relieved when you changed your mind. This is a scary place! I was there quite a bit many years ago, with the guest services team that worked there. So amazing and yet sad.
Oh wow Adam good to see you back at the abandoned stuff! This place is a gem, been here about 4 times and always something new to see here. Awesome video as always man! 🤘 I have a photo of the chair room back before it got wrecked and it definitely was a sight to see!
@@TheDailyWoo I thought Magneto was going to come through one of the doors when I first stepped into that room 3 years ago. It was bizarre but so damn cool
@TheDailyWoo that was so creepy especially when you pointed out the large hole and said something about a Johnny moment. I pictured Jack Nicholson and was immediately glad this wasn't one of those times I was watching this late at night. Yikes.
My wife and I stayed here on our first Disney world vacation back in 96'. It was a very nice place. Sad to see it in the shape its in today. Thanks for documenting this once great place!
Epic as always. I started watching back in the days you used to do abandon then just fell in love with the over all content 😂 happy see some cool urbexs from u again
It was also know as The Orlando Hyatt House in the 70’s and early 80’s… each unit / complex had its own pool area …. I would stay there with the family and take a shuttle bus from the hotel to Walt Disney World …
Hey WOO: 3 things; yes you should have someone with you or let someone know where you’re headed and hopefully you have a can of pepper spray and a collapsible baton to defend yourself if needs be, maybe incorporate some sprint training into you workouts in case you need to speed out of there, maybe some steel / composite toed boots with thick soles before you step in something that’ll slice through your sneakers. And up-to-date tetanus shot !
That used to be a Hyatt back in the day. I stayed there on a business trip in about 1999. Hard to believe it's been left there to rot considering it's such a prime location.
NICE! Adam is back! I started watching your channel when this is all you did! I miss it! Maybe you can do these abandoned videos and put them into your mix once in a while...
Welp this vlog was going pretty good till you went into that creepy chairs in the wall room! The creepy factor went up about 1000%. I felt like I was watching a very scary movie! I was even yelling at you to not go into those rooms!! Perfect for spooky season! 😳😳😳
It's a shame no one has taken over the area and at least knocked it down and cleaned it up so it isn't an eyesore for the hotel next door. Surprised Disney Has not bought it.
Unbelievable how this is been sitting there for so long, such a prime location. crazy. Thanks for the update. I have been passing that place for so many years, wondering what was with it?!
Thank goodness leather face didnt bust out of that wall with his chainsaw. Would have been better than the haunted houses. Good job on covering this old place.
Back a long time ago this place was ligit, we had FSPA florida scholastic press association state meet there. So many memories there lots of friends made. Sad to see it in this condition. Thanks for checking it out Adam!
Dude glad to see this stuff again :) this brings me back. What would have really made it Nostalgia cuz if you included the old Adam the woo theme Into it XD
I've got a tune in my head right now, and I feel like singing "AdamtheWoo, goes on adventures for you, and he dont even ask your mom." Brilliant stuff.
I recently watched the bright sun film version of this video I could be mistaken, but I think there was a dark ride in that place. I would be scared to walk around the place especially when those drapes are closed when you heard the dog bark that was scary. I really wouldn’t go to those places by myself but you’re very brave for doing it.
Very spooky video! Love seeing abandoned places although I personally would be too scared to traverse in such a place, I love seeing videos and pics. There's a pilot/photographer who's pics I loved named Henk Van Rensbergen who would seek out abandoned places while traveling for work and photograph these creepy and amazing places. Video gives an interesting and different perspective on a abandoned site. Thanks for being brave enough to check it out for us. Please be careful tho! Love BrightSunFilms too!
29:51 - the squatters have no AC, so the glass is knocked out for ventilation and the drapes are kept up for privacy and makeshift weather barriers...the extra mattress against the window frame was probably used to keep the drapes from blowing inward - like a shower curtain effect....but then again, I really don't have a clue.
Great video Adam and i would have been totally terrified of someone jumping out while you were walking. I have to wonder what is really happening in there at night. Totally creeps me out👻
Adam, just curious - What is the process of you finding these places to explore? Do you research or is it more of a driving by type of thing and makes you go "Hmm.." Love all your vlogs brotha!
This place has been empty for a decade next to celebration and wdw . Recently in last half year or so has become very open and accessible. Lots of squatters living there and taggers spray paint it up . Decided it was finally time to check it out myself

I feel like forgotten Hwy 192 needs to some attention in video form . This might be the first of a few as time goes on
Hope you're still going to Chili cookoff in Gatlinburg! It's getting nice and cool here 🎃🍁🐻
I used to live in Winter Haven...I remember 192! Do you remember Boardwalk and Baseball? It was on highway 27 outside Haines City 🏞️
I had put up a link that had the pictures of what it actually looked like before. It was very nice
Woo Solo is my favorite Woo
I lived on Cascades apt behind Target worked at the Flying Tigers Air museum and enjoy the walking and abandoned tours.
Cool to see your take on this place! It’s a lost cause at this point. I can’t believe how bad it looks now!

Bright Sun Films,I love your work, and I was pleasantly surprised to hear you mentioned here. Nice job from both you, and ATW. Thank you.
It's a shame that they leave so much behind after it's closed. So many things could have had a second life.
I think the same way. It's sad that this property could have been used for something else afterwards.
The fact that you didn’t get hurt or encounter anyone aggressive on that property is amazing to me. I had so much anxiety watching this but could not turn away!! Be safe, Adam!!
I understand why you don’t do as much abandoned content anymore, but I get so excited when you do!

Adam I've followed you from the early days of the merlin shop and the abandoned golf course you did in the mountains. I've really missed your take on this type of content. Thank you for doing this again.
This tour was way more scary than any of the Halloween haunt locations!
Someone went to a LOT of effort to stick those chairs up like that.
📸 Loving this old school Woo content. Nice to see you getting back to some of your vlogging roots!
I'm a sucker for abandoned content so when I saw this upload from you I got so excited, but I have to admit I just finished watching Barbarian before watching this and the entire time I was on edge thinking something would pop out. Then when you were walking toward that blue curtained area I was audibly like "Adam noo" and was on the edge of my seat 😂. Great video, thank you for venturing into this place for us, it's shocking to see the difference between when BSF visited and now!
This is one of your most captivating videos I’ve seen in a long time! The tension was so thick, not knowing if someone was going to pop out or even just be chillin’ there.
I can’t imagine what happened there. So much destruction.
After all those scary Halloween places and events, this is the first time I was actually scared! I felt like we were watching one of those movies and found myself saying, don't go down there Adam, several times and was freaking out at the though that you would, even though I knew the fact I was watching this meant you were just fine, it wasn't live! And my fascination with urban decay meant I would have been right there with you given the chance!
Love seeing you back in the abandoned location videos lately. Keep it up!
The OG content I’m here for! LOVE these abandoned walkthrough videos!!!
Love this. You look like you're genuinely enjoying exploring these ruins.
Hair on the back of my neck stood up when that dog barked. I love urban exploration video's so much.
Adam did a good job at creating a sense of tension in this video, whether he meant to do it or not lol...must be something in the way he moves the camera around. My heart was racing a bit during a few parts of the video.
My heart was beating a little faster through today's video. Great content! Each time I drive by here I'm amazed it is still abandoned.
I'm amazed at how these huge venues wind up like this! (Nice to see you out and about again!)
I also like the straightforward way you present your videos without the need for music or special effects. Keep up with them.
Thank you so much
This was INTENSE! Wow, I was literally glued to the screen during some of those scenes!
Another awesome video, ATW. It's really sad to see what has happened to some of these places. I'm trying to imagine what it was like.. Kinda breaks your heart a little.
I live in the area. For years I’ve wondered why such a large footprint of property was never redeveloped. Does anyone know if there’s a reason like possible sinkholes or perhaps something else faulting the property for easy redevelopment? Great video and I personally am appreciative of your wide variety of content, all of it.
What I know it was having problems with bookings and they were spending too much money on maintenance and had low income from guests since the tourism had died down at that time and they had to shut down in 2012 but in 2021 it was bought by a New York company and it was said renovations were gonna be done but it never happened so now it just sits here
I've passed by this place so many times while going to Celebration with my family and I'm glad you and BSF have made cool videos on it. A childhood dream of mine has been fullfilled!
I watched this one twice.. felt just as freaked out the second time.. Even though I knew you ended up being ok, I was mentally freaking out for you.. please be carful.. you are far to wonderful and amazing to loose if you were to get into true danger.. thanks for making the MOST amazing content .. greatly appreciate you and all that you do… I know it takes a lot of your time, but it sure means a lot 💙
Moooore road things. Love it. Old school Adam. Thanks for the video. Enjoy your day
I was blown away by this video on the resort. I used to travel every year on a golf trip to this area and was fascinated with this vacant property. Years later I wondered if it was ever redeveloped, I did not know the name of property to research it. Then Adams video came along and blew me away. Thanks woo.
Morning bro..😎✌️ what the heck? Those chairs
Heres Johnny Vibes For sure
I love when you do your videos like this. I'm sure it was a beautiful place in its prime. It's so sad to see the condition it's in now, I will never understand why people find pleasure in destruction of buildings. It's horrid.
Adam finally comes full circle and starts exploring abandoned places again
I've missed this so much and needed this content from him.
@@drewgustavo4794 even through a building is abandoned. it can still be owned by somone.
he should be careful.
best advice if wants to go into abandoned buildings he should do reseacrh on who owns it and try to permission from the owners.
No one is patrolling the building unfortunately. That's the major problem. It needs to be demolished asap.
@@kauzpayne2 I'm sure he does plenty of research considering the reason he stopped exploring them in the first place was because he got in trouble.
@@kauzpayne2 He should conceal carry, and not exactly peppers spray. There are all sorts of dangers, from crazy hobos that can use infected needles as weapons to lethal dogs like pitbulls running around, unleashed.
Wow I forgot this place was still there! I remember visiting somebody here when it was up and running when I was younger, and then many years later I came back as a photographer and made some photographs with a friend. I remember walking through halls of wasp nests, absolutely covering everything top to bottom. Hovwever it was the only way to get in to a couple areas we wanted explore. Anyways very cool to see you finding interest in these very interesting abandoned places we have around orlando
You are the modern day Huell Howser. You deserve so much credit for all your documentation of this country and its soul. I bet that was one of the scariest October attractions yet! lol I still remember the Hai Li video. Spooky. Thanks for getting back to your roots and taking it back old school.
bro the chair on the wall room was pretty creepy haha
Yea big time
When i have gone by there so many times over the years. It's crazy how big the property is and how long it has been abandoned. I am surprised nothing has been done with the land there.
It's in a prime location.
So cool!!! I thought at first maybe a storm caused those chairs to be embedded in the walls, but definitely someone intentionally did that. Awesome find!!!
Very cool video. Reminds of the old school days of your channels. I started watching your channels when you were traveling in your van doing abandoned places. I love everything you have done. The variety of content on your channel is great. Everything from theme parks, roadtrips, abandoned places, etc. I am a huge fan of it all because i am into all those things as well. Very cool. Thanks for another cool video
As much as I love all your content this is my favorite. I sub'd to you on your original channel because of these kinds of videos and it's great to see you bringing it back. In my opinion though, nothing will top your "Ruins Of Decay Don't Exist Near Disney World - A Tourism Video", but I was definitely getting familiar vibes watching this one today. Judging on the wicker / wooden frame furniture and "brass" metal chairs I'm going to guess this place was in it's prime in the mid to late 80's. Great job Adam!
Did not expect this one
All bets are off
@@TheDailyWoo which was the point!
Dude, this is old school Adam the Woo stuff. My favorite. I remember drinking with my girlfriend, and spending our days off watching your exploration vids back to back. Now we're married and we will watch whatever you post. You rock Adam the Woo.
P.s, Scott on Tape is as sexy as they come. 😂
It’s very interesting back there. You’re probably right, they have marked some of the trees either for removal or to be saved.
That’s what I’m thinking
Crazy...you got guts doing that😊
You’re not wearing appropriate heavy duty boots for exploring such a death trap!
You could step on a number of sharp objects--tennis shoes --no good --against who knows what!
Shards of broken glass - a bomb---dead body --+crazy people were or are inside there.
when i went i saw a dead body and a bald dude Guarding the entrance With a bat he would start running at u . he thinks he still “works” at the disney resort.
Great to see you get back to your roots! It even sounds like you're enjoying this more.
Adam you almost went behind that green curtain. I really wanted you to, but was relieved when you changed your mind. This is a scary place! I was there quite a bit many years ago, with the guest services team that worked there. So amazing and yet sad.
Oh wow Adam good to see you back at the abandoned stuff! This place is a gem, been here about 4 times and always something new to see here. Awesome video as always man! 🤘
I have a photo of the chair room back before it got wrecked and it definitely was a sight to see!
Pretty insane to see that chair room
@@TheDailyWoo I thought Magneto was going to come through one of the doors when I first stepped into that room 3 years ago. It was bizarre but so damn cool
@TheDailyWoo that was so creepy especially when you pointed out the large hole and said something about a Johnny moment. I pictured Jack Nicholson and was immediately glad this wasn't one of those times I was watching this late at night. Yikes.
@@braves9652 I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought of The Shining when I saw the holes 🤣
@@Bloodrocutioner creepy, right?
My wife and I stayed here on our first Disney world vacation back in 96'. It was a very nice place. Sad to see it in the shape its in today. Thanks for documenting this once great place!
Epic as always. I started watching back in the days you used to do abandon then just fell in love with the over all content 😂 happy see some cool urbexs from u again
It was also know as The Orlando Hyatt House in the 70’s and early 80’s… each unit / complex had its own pool area …. I would stay there with the family and take a shuttle bus from the hotel to Walt Disney World …
Hey WOO: 3 things; yes you should have someone with you or let someone know where you’re headed and hopefully you have a can of pepper spray and a collapsible baton to defend yourself if needs be, maybe incorporate some sprint training into you workouts in case you need to speed out of there, maybe some steel / composite toed boots with thick soles before you step in something that’ll slice through your sneakers. And up-to-date tetanus shot !
I was thinking the same on the tetanus shot status! Have to say, this was very creepy but in a fun way!
That used to be a Hyatt back in the day. I stayed there on a business trip in about 1999. Hard to believe it's been left there to rot considering it's such a prime location.
NICE! Adam is back! I started watching your channel when this is all you did! I miss it! Maybe you can do these abandoned videos and put them into your mix once in a while...
It's heartbreaking to see that place in that condition. Some people have no self control.
Welp this vlog was going pretty good till you went into that creepy chairs in the wall room! The creepy factor went up about 1000%. I felt like I was watching a very scary movie! I was even yelling at you to not go into those rooms!! Perfect for spooky season! 😳😳😳
I am hitting the like button on all of these abandoned places videos...great history!
It's a shame no one has taken over the area and at least knocked it down and cleaned it up so it isn't an eyesore for the hotel next door. Surprised Disney Has not bought it.
Bright Sun Films is a great TH-cam channel.
Unbelievable how this is been sitting there for so long, such a prime location. crazy.
Thanks for the update.
I have been passing that place for so many years, wondering what was with it?!
Thank goodness leather face didnt bust out of that wall with his chainsaw. Would have been better than the haunted houses. Good job on covering this old place.
Back a long time ago this place was ligit, we had FSPA florida scholastic press association state meet there. So many memories there lots of friends made. Sad to see it in this condition. Thanks for checking it out Adam!
Always loved you doing abandoned places.
Dude glad to see this stuff again :) this brings me back.
What would have really made it Nostalgia cuz if you included the old Adam the woo theme Into it XD
I've got a tune in my head right now, and I feel like singing "AdamtheWoo, goes on adventures for you, and he dont even ask your mom." Brilliant stuff.
Adam awesome video abandoned Hotel and Convention center I love to explore there soon 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I recently watched the bright sun film version of this video I could be mistaken, but I think there was a dark ride in that place. I would be scared to walk around the place especially when those drapes are closed when you heard the dog bark that was scary. I really wouldn’t go to those places by myself but you’re very brave for doing it.
Very spooky video! Love seeing abandoned places although I personally would be too scared to traverse in such a place, I love seeing videos and pics. There's a pilot/photographer who's pics I loved named Henk Van Rensbergen who would seek out abandoned places while traveling for work and photograph these creepy and amazing places. Video gives an interesting and different perspective on a abandoned site. Thanks for being brave enough to check it out for us. Please be careful tho! Love BrightSunFilms too!
29:51 - the squatters have no AC, so the glass is knocked out for ventilation and the drapes are kept up for privacy and makeshift weather barriers...the extra mattress against the window frame was probably used to keep the drapes from blowing inward - like a shower curtain effect....but then again, I really don't have a clue.
Adam If you run into the “caretaker”, remember you’re inspecting mattresses for their tags!
Thanks for sharing!
Great video Adam and i would have been totally terrified of someone jumping out while you were walking. I have to wonder what is really happening in there at night. Totally creeps me out👻
Adam, just curious - What is the process of you finding these places to explore? Do you research or is it more of a driving by type of thing and makes you go "Hmm.."
Love all your vlogs brotha!
This place has been empty for a decade next to celebration and wdw . Recently in last half year or so has become very open and accessible. Lots of squatters living there and taggers spray paint it up . Decided it was finally time to check it out myself
