Awesome place to visit and experience. As stated it is illegal to trespass, but in all honestly it is worth it to see everything. I went there and took too long and had my car out front, Police were super nice and just told me to go home, that I could be hurt in there. If you are going to enter just be aware that you should be fairly quick, pick a good time. Maybe afternoon or a weekend or something but probably not too late, DO NOT park a car on the premises if you’re entering! Park close by, walk to the building to enter and move swiftly. General creepy ambiance to it. And PLEASE do not damage the building or anything to do with it as it is a historical building and it will be renovated very soon for something new for the city to utilize. Enjoy the creepy haunted state mental hospital / psych ward.(P.S. I climbed onto the roof and up to the spot at the very top. Amazing view and very cool. If you’re up for the climb.)

Abandoned beauty. We didnt dare go in, even tho a gate was open as security was parked all around. We did walk around the building, the church across the street and the cottages. The hospital campus was huge. Security did greet us when walking around the cottages and we were asked to stay in our car.

This very old stately building housed a mental hospital years ago. Its abandoned and will be remodeled to serve the community in another capacity.

Pretty awesome piece of history! Thought about sneaking in, but I didnt want to see the disappointed look on my husbands face when he comes to pick me up at the police station. Lol. Very big and in dangerously bad shape as stated by others. Chapel across the street.
