Turn your volume up.

UPDATE:

We just got into the building from :16 - :31 (Norwalk Hall). ALSO, went inside the Power Plant located off FFH main property.

SEE ATTACHED VIDEO

Fairfield Hills once held over 4,000 mentally unstable patients. The building's original beauty is only masked by the scars of mother nature and recent vandalism. The asylum lost its accreditation in 1994 and slowly closed down its over 25 campus-style buildings.

Today, much of the site is under construction and renovation to create municipal town buildings. The area is patrolled by one security guard in a blue truck - who really doesn't do much.

This time, three of us entered through Litchfield House, where we discovered a passage to the underground tunnels. They were just as magnificent as we had hoped and we followed them to Yale Laboratory (the morgue). It was completely pitch black and the echoes from your shuffling feet tended to play mind games with you. I hope you enjoy your tour of them.

Yale Lab has been virtually untouched - only a few remnants from vandals were there. I was surprised at how good of shape it was in. We found the autopsy tables, body coolers, and "bio-hazardous" sinks. We left the building and headed back to the tunnels when we all agreed we felt like we shouldn't be there.

We practically speed walked back to Litchfield House (the drug ward) and went back up to the second floor, where we heard banging during our last visit. I turned my camera off, and immediately there was banging from the other end of the hallway. Luckily, I was fast enough to catch it the second time, merely half as loud as usual - but STILL on camera.

Needless to say, we ran out of there after that.

We went in not to ghost hunt, or to vandalize, but to see the building's beauty masked behind years of neglect.

Please, if you go into any abandoned facilities, treat them with respect. They've been around a lot longer than you have.

PS. I edited this while having close to a 102 degree fever. Yeah...when I got home from FFH, I had a fever.

  • That hallway looks like where they filmed sleepers, thats some whacked up place!

  • @zatarra2fast It is.

  • the underground tunnels were used for transporting patients from building to building, instead of taking them outside in the winter or risking their escape/ill co-operation

  • Right. They were also used for laundry, transport of equipment, and transport of dead bodies.

  • you guys have some balls for sure

  • Thanks

  • @jenaliza i was also there a year b4 yu tho in 85, good n bad memories but mostly bad

  • @shak1145 your joke=shit

  • two of the fairfield hills buildings have been renovated for town use the town also plans to turn the entire property into a public recreation area. You can't really get into any buildings unless no one is around and you can find an open door, which my friends and I happen to find. You are required to stay 15 feet away from each building because of falling dabree most of the time there will be a cop patrolling the area. The under ground tunnels have been for the most part filled.

  • fairfield hills has been renovated ...and is no longer an abandoned hospital...unless someone can prove me wrong..??

  • I wouldn't recommend going there. They blocked off the tunnels in '09 I believe, and that was the best part. You would probably also get arrested for trespassing as well, and trust me, there is always at least one police officer patrolling the area. If you could get permission from the town or something then I would say go for it. I have been in there before, tunnels and all, back when we had soccer practice in the old gymnasium. I never saw anything paranormal, but it's definitely creepy.

    Also

  • I wanna go in a few week, but I'lll be by myself. Is this safe and is it all restored by now or what? Never been.
