So we went as a group of 12 8 adults and 4 kids but when we went to the building that you need to go through the window we say a spot light and when we where on the balcony at the main building we saw several police cars with spotlights no goatman though lol but when we went to the other side of the road we had to full sprint 3 times and hide in some bushes just so we didn’t go to jail sadly we didn’t find and paranormal stuff but still I’m pretty sure it was because of how big our group was but still beware cops and demons

So there were a lot of security and a lot of random people who had spotlights but we got a lot of hitchhikers and we were at the place for 3 hours and we almost got caught 5 times so be safe no parenormle stuff though

Me and 4 other friends went as we like to explore abandoned places... well this was the last time we went to this hospital. One of my friends stuck his head out of the window on the 2nd floor and was shot at MULTIPLE times.

It was super fun, wear a mask please. Asbestos everywhere ofc. Cops ended up looking for me and my friend, could tell by the lights they were using. I ended up falling through the stairs trying to get away, do not get stuck in the basement like we did!!! The basement is boarded up, not exit besides up..
Besides that, we made it to the roof. There is an old garden up there, a tree somehow grew right through the walk way. Truly beautiful, full moon & warm night.
Just be prepared to run, remember the way out! MARCH 2025

my name is carter jacobs, It was one night me and my friend eli are 16 and my friend dom and max, dom is 14 and max is 19, elis sister, we drove her car to glendale and shortly after going to crownsville hospital, bel manor bridge, and goatmans bridge/ crybaby bridge all in maryland. i have been to glenn dale hospital 2 times now, the 2nd being on january 1st the night after new years. the first time we went we got there and it was very cold,we walk up with little no no information about the hospital, we look around and see a little hut to the left while walking up to the entrance road towards the little factory garage thing and around that right corner and a little to the left would be the main building, i have everything on video and pictures i just have to get my phone back from being grounded to upload them, or email me for them, but anyways everything is fine and instantly get a heart sinking feelings walking up to the building, this being the first time we went, we walk up to the main entrance and take pictures infront of the door, everything goes well when we first enter, there is alot of graffiti and satanic trolls i wouldnt worry about as in fake rituals, but as we are walking we decide to split up 2 and 2, me and eli, max and dom, it was my idea just for fun we both go different ways for the scary experience, me and eli turn down one hallway and immedietly get a terrible feeling, at this point max and dom are far away doin their own thing and me and eli hear a little tap and a few footsteps and we go silent and our hearts drop, and you all could or could not believe me, but me and eli started hearing light humming or singing for a few seconds and we pretty much shit ourselves an go back to max and dom quickly to bring them down the hallway because we couldnt go alone, i am pretty sure it is the right side of the building, we didnt hear much after that until the time we were leaving, after we checked out the roof we decided not to go to the basement because it felt terrible just looking down the steps, as we were leaving the first time around 2-3am we hear a noise behind us while we are walking away and iswear to god me and eli turn around see a women in a white dress or gown dancing and moving towards us, i have it on video email me for it, we immedietly ran to the car after i got my video of her. The 2nd time we came back was much colder and windier, we started a fire in the corner of a bathroom on of of the top floors for heat and honestly to smoke but before we got up there we immidietly heard steps above us, thats why we went upstairs and when we got up we heard taps and steps from down the hallway, after chilling for a while we went back down and on our way out we see the basement again and eli says his gut is telling him no and its a bad idea but i want to anyway and he says i can look really quick if i want to but he wouldnt, i walk to the bottom of the stairs, shine my flashlight through the door and its alot darker and i point the camera to the left and i hear and see the most visible women and you can feel the presence of her staring and the moment i saw her i said it was time to leave and we left out the side door as fast as we could, the side door was broken halfway at the bottom so we crawled through and ran. but this is a YN's glenndale hospital experience, be careful inside their, there is most likley something unhuman inside.

Went with a group of friends about 5 or 6 of us around halloween 2023. We entered through the morgue and that was an experience in itself, as we finished up with the l morgue we started heading deeper in got into a hallway. We saw a lot of great graffiti but about 30 steps into the hall one of the girls we had with us started feeling a bit weird and uneasy she even claimed to hear someone or something whisper her name in her ear. So we walked them back to their car. When we got outside we heard footsteps coming from all directions. (This was not an animal we saw the trees and brushes moving and not only that these were uniformed steps. They had a purpose.)After walking them back to their car we headed back inside but we were interrupted walking back through the woods by another group of 2 who claims they heard the stuff in the woods and thought it was us messing with them. They joined us and we explored more eventually making our way up to the rooftop where i was recording and almost stepped on an ouija board under my feet (on video). We didnt mess with it but was cool to see, we later saw cops and stuff and had to hideout and sneak out. Towards the wnd of the night we crossed a big field towards the childrens hospital and saw a strange figure walking in all black we all stopped and stared at him until he also stopped turned to us and flashed some light at us. He then continued into the field u til he blended in with the night. We left after that because we all had a bad feeling at this point. But lots of fun!

Few years ago as a teenager, my friends and I explored this place. We just explored abandoned places for fun and had no clue this place was known to be paranormal.
We sat down behind one of the buildings in the grass, facing the forest. Building to our backs, and treeline about ten yards in front. We start hearing footsteps in front of us that got closer and closer, coming from the trees. The reason it wasn’t an animal was that these were uniform, slow, steady, consistent steps. Animals footsteps are more erratic and random. These steps got so close to the point we could see the grass moving underneath them. We peaced the fuck out and never looked back.

Just curious if anyone believes that there's a man dressed up like a goatman devil shooting a gun at individuals ? Is that really true ?

So me and a friend of mine have explored this place a few times. On of one of explorations we walked up the left side entrance to the children's hospital. When we got close to the door and tried to take a peak inside we heard a loud stick crack and we bolted. Before that though we noticed abandoned clothes, purses and shoes. Might be nothing but seemed weird. We then immediately drove over to Capper/McCarren Hall. Mind you, its not a far distance but we drove it, much faster then someone could walk over there. We entered Capper Hall from the left most entrance when you are facing the front of this building, with the children's hospital to your back. I took a look around in one of what I would assume to be a patient room. I walked out, shinned my light down the hall and a door SLAMMED. It was dead still out, no way it was wind. Maybe not paranormal but still sketch as shit. Be careful here, there is security in the evenings but if you go and speak to the cop there, most likely he will give you permission to take a look around the outside. I do not recommend going inside the bigger building because of structural decay and asbestos. Overall though, a very cool place to look at from a far :))
