0:37 window in hte middle with the weather cold hot thigny on top look at the window very good corner

[starrfisher]

i would love to own that building. just think f what i could do with it.

[sammilalala]

I used to live right across the street from their when i was younger, me and my brothers used to ride our bikes around that hospital all the time. We never saw any ghost or anything out of the ordinary.

[TonyInTopeka]

@sammilalala Me and my younger brother used to do the same thing! We lived on Kenova street, what a cool place it was, shame it's gone now. I can remember the feeling of isolation, and also like I was being watched, this was in the mid 90's.

[ducky3307]

That's a shame that it's gone now!!!!!!

[belljac]

WAT IS IT CALLED

[northvilletunnels]

Some investigation. Nice exteriors lmao

[Kristine633]

@northvilletunnels Lmao!!

[6b6r6y6a6n6]

Me and all my friends went in there right at sunset and came out it when dark, it was pretty freaky.

[multisnootyreturns]

this is where they used to send retards. this is where retards belong.

ps. any ghost you meet will be harmless and retarded

[KangPaynus]

@multisnootyreturns Holy shit, I laughed waay too hard at your comment XD

[ShyShy2010ASL]

To:Unspokenlegend09-I would love to see the photos of the inside. I was just out there taking pics of the buildings because they are getting ready to demolish the main one but I was not allowed to go inside and plus then the cops probably would have showed up because with my luck I would set off one of the alarms.

[northvilletunnels]

@ShyShy2010ASL If they were tearing it down I doubt the alarms would have been working. they tend to cut power before demolition.

[Unspokenlegend09]

I have exclusive photos of the inside of this building...if anyone wants to see the pics, I could make a slide show!

[hannahmontana96able]

@Unspokenlegend09 i do

[Christen180]

i would love to live there. it looks like such a beautiful building. i would move my whole family in.

[kstate013]

@Christen180 Umm.. What's wrong with you..? It's creepy as hell!!

[ComfortablyxNumb59]

i'll fucking leave topeka if they demolish any more of these grounds or Menningers.

[Theshadowrazor]

I'll go to it. If we can get inside without breaking anything that is. Anyone wanna come with me?? Send me a message and let me know, we can get a group together.

[r0flcopterz]

Does anyone have information on where the trip sensors are located? I was there last night and was fine (no cops came), but I got a call from a friend warning me not to go on the first floor as that's where the sensors are - guess where I was... first floor. So I sprinted out and drove away. I'd love to go back, but my biggest fear are the cops/asbestos.

[scgml83]

ghost tour ten bucks take that instead of breaking and entering my grandfather worked here need to ask the stories lol

[stillrob420]

is this still there? or demolished?

[topcitygolfer]

my friends and i went here tonight during a football game at hummer.

it was scary as fuck we were standing there looking at it and we saw a blue light flash back and forth from tree to tree and we got out of there real quick-like! haha

[omniShi56]

I got my senior pictures for Hayden taken there. The photographer was all cool about it but I kept shivering in the middle of summer. It's just a scary place to hang around, even during the day.

[ST3V083]

my sister dared me to go in there but i never did, it scares the s*** outta me lol

[TrojanNumber3]

Why don't you break into the building and go in? Should make for an amazing video

[tuberroni]

you should go check it out the police are using it for something strange now

[gunnyranger2]

If you ever get a chance to go in the castle,im in!I live in Top city also.

[ProgEars2006]

A creepy place indeed, but nothing compared to some of the other asylums built in the late 1800s. In fact the architecture is so mellow here it's almost inviting compared to some I have seen online in other cities. My Dad worked here for a few years and I remember him teaching me how to drive on the grounds there before I ever got to drive on a real street. Guess my memories of it aren't as bad as some of you folks. Sorry if it sucked for ya. It's no happy place.

[XxXdthwshXxX]

ive passed that place driving bye omg

[lil88fan]

i was a patient there from 82-86 i was an "incorrigible teenager" from junction city sent there to screening east then they locked me up on brigham adolescent locked ward i too went to capital city high school it was bad

[nhoverhaulinfan2]

Love the video

[juliescloset3]

Did you ever go inside of the building?

[Valis77]

At 0:11 Thats where i would have been if i acted bad in 1993-1994 Im glad i did not spent my time there. Im surprised that someone show this on youtube im from topeka kansas and i attended that high school called "Capitol City High" Good thing!

[ajfnks89]

so much pain and sadness in all of these buliding from the child ward to the main buliding to the old capital city buliding my mom worked at the state hospital for 6 years till it closed now all the patients just live in the streets now the grounds are so depressing even in the day time to know people lived and died and where even murdered may all of the lost souls find pieces one day

[Vick4Pres]

we broke in there about 3 years ago and it was creepy as hell, we found patients medical documents

[explorer7004]

Music is kinda cool. Anyone know who the artist is?

[Pontesota]

I don't know the album, but I know it's Alice Cooper

[IHatchetJack]

i believe the title is years ago..alice cooper..

[juaritos28]

WTF...i never knew this place was in topeka....

[cbancman]

thats kool guys

[JustAnotherDharmaBum]

I like this place the way it is. Topeka needs more just...creepy places for us to run around. It makes things more fun. I think it would be lame if it was turned into offices or a commercial haunted house.

But I wouldn't trash it either, that would be kind of juvenile. It sucked when it happened to Mennigers.

And yeah, cops are there all the time. I just went there tonight and a cop came by, but my friend and I just jumped behind trees and he left us alone? Whatever. Neat place.

[Logan92691]

Those buildings down there behind Hummer would make sweet haunted houses if someone would put some effort into it.

[MMMSewell]

My Mother Was a patient at this horribble place until they Moved her to a nursing home where she was murdered in 1981. I have visited it many times in my 62 years.

[paranzoik]

why didnt you destroy the abandoned place?? if that was me i would of trashed it i cant understand why you just filmed it

[1313jamie]

Nice job, very cool place. Regarding the audio file, its an old song done by none other then the true master of horror rock Mr. Alice Cooper! The song is off his welcome to my nightmare lp and its called "years ago"  Great choice of a haunting melody to accompany a place that has such an uneasy feeling!

[disciple604]

Cops watch that place now and you'll get arrested for tryin to go in there....I've tried.

[ScottyinKC]

I wouldn't worry too much about it, Topeka PD is full of retards.

Right on, cool vid.

[wrnchhead76]

You got that right.

[youscaremee]

ive been inside minagers.. well.. the gym area.. nice.. a full gym and a pool table. i stole a pool ball. lol and a couple other stuff

[Braves300]

This is were we burn the jews!

jk ......

[electrosmack]

I wish there was a way to get in the main building. Tried it a week ago, and was nearly arrested.

[MMMSewell]

I have been in the main building many times the place had bars on the windows and patients screaming for help but they say they were not mistreated that is not what I saw back in the 70's

[Kolfritz]

I drove around the parking lot here once, and it occured to me these buildings might make good offices, if they're renovated.

[sictransitgloria08]

i've taken many a urinations on the second building... oh cross country...

[ePhilosopher]

[satisfaction2000]

Good job. Where's the audio from?

[xXEricaTheStrangeXx]

Im so going there this friday, considering i live in topeka..

[xxxlustfuldesiresxxx]

i spent a week in topeka state hospital back in sept of 1996, right before the completely closed it down, then i moved right across the street on first street. i used to walk the grounds at night when i was preg with my daughter...it is a very spooky place.

[girddlesniffer]

ok course it is a lot of people was their

[akqsuited]

the buildings are owned by the state and are surrounded by other state buildings. i live at second and gage the state hospital is right behind my apartments. its not that scarry. but if you go to the cemetery with 1157 graves and only about 12 stones. there right by the printing building. there are sixteen rows 0-15.

[satisfaction2000]

Masterful!!! Great job. Perfect music--where is it from? Best urban exploring video I've see so far. Music captures the mood perfectly. Nothing happens,and that only adds to the sense of dread!

[Hammy211]

Spooky place to go through, and now with mennigers gone our small town has two of these relics.

[7toypoodles]

do you know if this is forsale or who owns this building? thanks
