Nice site but when you list all the places you have United Kingdom and then an England flag above it, there are three other countries in the UK: Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales.

I am a photograph collector in San Francisco with an 8 3/4" x 6 3/4" image of firemen, "State Hospital" ladder wagon, hose reels, a ladder going to the top floor, and water being poured into a fourth-floor window. Tha architecture matches the photo at the top of your website.

Does anyone have any pre-1900 photos of San Francisco to trade? I also like Daguerreotype photos.

I absolutely adore this site, and I find the topic deeply fascinating. If you ever get the chance, make a point to visit Salton Sea in Southern California- it's a true Piece de resistance!

I LOVE your website...I will definitely be a frequent visitor. I am completely fascinated by these sorts of images. I am amazed at some of the photos you were able to get! Great job and thanks!

I lived in Gary and left for the military as soon as I could. I have tons of family in Gary and the only reason I go back is to visit family. I never knew anything good of Gary except family, food, and Dana M. Davis. So much pain so many horrible memories. Oneday I would love to see Gary become a fraction of what it once was. But with so many murders and desertions whose going to change it?

I used to patrol BlackOak and Gary in early 80 s.The crime was bad and so were the politicians.I remember one night two Gary cops were responding to a call and there car had no floorboard.Thanks Richard Hatcher.

I commend you on this extraordinary site. Your photo composition hints at professional avocation. If your photo skills are self taught they are indeed praisworthy!. As a "retired" UrbEx I have thouroughly enjoyed visiting and will return often. Thank you.

Notre premier amour reste dans nos coeurs pour toujours. Nous pouvons rêver de nouveau en regardant de jeunes amants. Vivant et l'amour depuis longtemps, mon ami.

This stuff is so amazingg!!!! I have always been interested in old abandoned buildings! I have always wanted to go to one that still has old stuff inside. How do you go to these places? Like isnt there bums nd scarry people in some of the buildings??

This is a beautiful video. Thanks for taking it. I loved watching it. If you want a thinker who supports your approach you might try Bernard Stiegler en.wikipedia.org at Centre Pompideu. He is best known for his book Technics and Time I here en.wikipedia.org. Read about it at wikipedia, or better still watch the video The ister....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ister_(film).

I was directed to the section on the Canfranc railway station by a link posted on Trainorders.com, a California-based website used by railway enthusiasts and working railroaders. I've spent about an hour roaming through various "ghost" locations, such as the Locomotive Graveyard in Belgium and the old power plant in Baltimore. It's almost like an adventure movie (Harry Potter exploring Hogwarts comes to mind), and the poster who had a fire door close behind him--that gave me a chill, until I realized that he must have found a way out or he would not be here to post his story. I'm a bit old to do very much exploring, but it's intriguing to read the adventures of others. Some of the folks who post on Trainorders have visited closed facilities, such as the Southern Pacific station in Oakland, CA. I did some exploration there in 1981 when it was still active: up until 1941 there was an elevated station for electric suburban trains above the platform for long-distance trains. The stairway was closed off by a sheet of plywood, which I carefully moved aside. I went upstairs and photographed the long-deserted platforms, then got back downstairs without being spotted. What made them special what that many of the cars that used to stop here were sent to Southern California to work on the Pacific Electric Ry. during World War II, and two of them are preserved in running condition at Orange Empire Ry. Museum in Perris, CA, where I've been a member for many years.
I noted that there are a lot of locations in Belgium. Is that the "headquarters" for Forbidden Places?

hello how are you. good work on the site loving all the photos, i just have a quick question about eli's tomb!
i have been through a few of adelaides underground tunnel but have yet failed to stumble across the location of eli'd tomb. i was just wondering if you could email the location or just the area of that tunnel so i can go down there to do some photography. if you could get back to me about it i would muchly appriciate it.
thank you keep up the good work

Have any urban explorers been thru the miles of underground tunnels? Grew up near there. Friends dad worked there. Not an urban legend!

great webside

and beautiful photos

I have always been interested in deserted places. The feelings of sadness are overbearing at times. I think about the last time an object was used. ie a coat hanging on a hook. Who hung it there for the last time? What were the thoughts of the people involved? There is a hauntingly beautiful aura in deserted places. Why was this place given up on?
I only wish someone had taken pics of my boarding school before it was torn down. I have seen several old pics & one on photoshop, but no infiltrations of the building that is long gone now. I think they should have to wait until every living person that had contact with a place has passed on before they destroy a building. It is a sin to destroy a person's memories. My school was in Ft. Thomas, Ky. Our Lady of the Highlands Academy for girls.

Thankyou for your pics.

Great website!

I love this website. Thanks to all of you who bravely explored these places so homebodies like me could see them! It's bittersweet though and heartbreaking to know many of these amazing places will soon be no more. I particularly enjoy the castle pictures.

My interest in Hellingly Hospital came through searching family history. My Grandmother from Seaford had a brother who in 1908 was listed as an imbecile and living there. Over the years that thought bothered me. How did people of different mental capacities endure, frightened, bewildered, confused and lonely.
I read some of the comments with interest. In particular those who believe they have experience entities. With so many tormented souls that past from this life while residing there it is to be expected.
Thank goodness that mental health and the understanding and care of those poor souls suffering from mental decease has improved.

I loved the old insane asylum/hospital pictures..so much history, and leaves so much to the imagination. We can only wonder what it was like back then. I have a friend who was a psych nurse in the early 60's when so much experimenting was done. She can remember all the different patients,the long dark halls with the marble floors, the seclusions rooms, and has many strories to tell. These buildings are a part of all those tales..

Thank you ..would love to see more..

Cheers and heads up!

Thak you for the news

at the moment we are looking for interesting spaces for a dance - sound - space performance.
the location is an very important aspect of our symbiotic work.
the theme of german mythology goes perfectly with abandoned industriel spaces.
your pictures and locations are a good source. if anybody know where it is easy to enact such performances,
it would be great to hear. check our website and get in contact with us.
