There are several hospital buildings surrounded by old trees, roads and pathways and even though it’s all very beautiful, there’s also a very spooky element to it all. Maybe it’s because we’ve watched too many horror movies, but being surrounded by absolute silence and dark, empty windows in a place like this just gave us nonstop goosebumps.
