This is a movie I made depicting the historical value of Waverly Hills, a landmark in southwest Jefferson county, Louisville, KY. I thought the music really set it off. Keep in mind I DO NOT OWN THE PHOTOS OR THE MUSIC, the pictures are on loan from a good friend of mine (mentioned in the video).

  • Thanks so much for putting this together. I cant wait to go and see this place in person.

  • Thanks for putting this photo album together. I think the place is historic and should be preserved. As far as the paranormal stuff goes, I am a skeptic. By the same thinking, the site of the World Trade Towers should be haunted to the extreme, yet we hear of no paranormal activity there!

  • dont listen to this with head phones its a living hell

  • The hospital was called Waverly Hills because in 1883 the site of the hospital was a plantation by the same name.

  • My name is Waverly and now I'm thinking of opening up a Sanitarium...one that DOESN'T have over 63,000 deaths :)

  • I wonder if the people that worked there ever thought they we re working in a building that has become a part of american history?

  • Nice use of the "Dead Silence" soundtrack. Was very creepy.

  • at 4:04 that's Ron the Security guard. I got caught sneaking around up there in 2003 when I was 17 and he found me and let me off with just a warning, I wasn't breaking anything, just would sneak up there with friends to look around. Ron is a good guy.

  • I do know they use to pick the bodies up down at the bottom with a train and rail them out towards West point and Fort Knox to the south on 31 W and burn the bodies, at the height for your information 1 person died every hour of the day for a few years. My Great Aunt was a nurse there and a patient. I grew up in Valley Station which is right below PRP.

  • @darkpa2011 any proof of this? a few doctors had stated the worst number of deaths per year was 152 during the one year. so far, any records coming from there are actually refuting that claim stating that the actual number is around 5,000 to 6,000 total. So I would like to see the evidence of this, I am not trying to be rude or anything, im respectfully stating facts that i know.
