If you’ve ever wanted to try out being in a post-apocalyptic story, you can always find your local abandoned power plant or hospital and just poke around inside. Naturally, most of us would prefer not to, but this comes with the downside of never learning what it actually looks like. Fortunately, there are folks online who document it for the rest of us.
So we’ve gathered some of the best posts from an internet group dedicated to urban exploration and cool, abandoned places. Get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your own stories and thoughts in the comments section down below.

Children’s Wing, Abandoned Asylum
Peter Bear 4 months ago
Surprisingly cheerful. I suspect this was actually a hospital, not an 'asylum'. Or if it was, it was one in the truest and original sense of the word, a place where those who needed help could find it.

CDs, Pokemon cards, looks like Patrick from Spongebob. The 90s and 2000s just doesn't feel all that far back enough, but somehow it does and places like this remind you it ain't all that recent at all.

I'm kind if p*ssed at the graffiti on top, I imagine they had to climb onto the bones to do it. Not only very disrespectful (especially to people who's d***h and "burial" was already messed up), but I also imagine its dangerous/unhealthy to be touching them and kicking up decayed material imto the air.

Abandoned Strip Club Shut Down For Some Shady Business
Norm Gilmore 4 months ago
Had a job where the bar business had been bought and was being renovated. Because the old stock couldn't be sold on, at the end of each day we given permission to use up the old stock. So over the two weeks on site we worked our way through the beers first then trying the sweeter drinks. As we were out of town and being housed on site we didn't have to drive anywhere. It was freaking awesome.... :-)
