About
Deserted Hospitals is dedicated to the documentation of closed, historic, and abandoned hospitals through video and photos. The hospitals include psychiatric hospitals, tuberculosis sanatoriums, state schools, developmental centers, and medical centers. The buildings are prone to demolition, vandalism, and/or fires at any time. Since this is the case, documentation is important if any such occurrence were to take place. Deserted Hospitals began in early 2006 and has since been documenting abandoned hospitals in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic of the United States.

Q: What is urban exploring?

A: Urban exploration is an underground term used to describe the act of exploring locations that are, for the most part, unseen by average society. The term is most commonly used when referring to the exploration of drains, tunnels, and abandoned buildings. Urban explorers generally see such structures as being visually appealing and may compare them to an artistic structure of some sort.
