It was a long process of talking with the property owners and letting them know that we wanted to document the site from a historical perspective. They were hesitant, but eventually agreed. Once we were there, they were very gracious and allowed us to shoot a great deal of the site, as you can see.

I pass by those buildings every other day. I live around 5 minutes away from them in Wingdale. I always wondered what it was like inside, and I think that this video is great...Good job guys! Also, what is the name of the song?

[hiddenhometown]

Thanks for the comment! Glad you enjoyed the video. The song is "Ágætis byrjun," by one of my favorite bands, Sigur Rós.

I started working there in 1969---I see the place went to hell---what a shame

My Aunt Mary was there when it was the Wyngdale Mental Hospital. I use to go with my Grandmother, Aunt and Uncle to visit once a month on Sundays. I was really little and it was really scary. The sounds, the actions will live with me forever. My Granny would go inside to sign Aunt Mary out for the day and I was always afraid they wouldn't let Granny back out. This fear was not from horror films, this was back in the early 50's and it was created from what I saw there...

My grandmother was admitted in 1939 for mental issues. She stayed there for many years. How can I find out about her? Any help would be appreciated. I never met her. I was born in 1947.

@nevershoutkelsie211 i believe it was opened in 1924 and shut down in 1994.

Heard there's a patient cemetary somewhere on the grounds.the graves are marked with numbers..no names.

I'd be in that abandoned building so fast grabbing all of the antiques any chance I could.

Believe it or not, the ceiling PA speakers throughout the building would be BETTER quality than ANY speaker sold on today's market.

sigur ros!

liked the video, very captivating. trying to imagine having to spend part of my life in a place like this is a little mind-boggling. how old is the hospital, and for how long has it been out of use?
