abandoned hospital

Empty medical facility

An abandoned hospital is a former medical facility that has been closed and left vacant, often for years.

These structures attract urban explorers, photographers, and thrill-seekers drawn to their eerie atmosphere and decay.

In horror fiction and video games, abandoned hospitals serve as ready-made settings suggesting past suffering and institutional neglect: The abandoned hospital on the hill was said to be haunted.
