Never been to Briar Hill specifically but that ". Something's off". Feeling in a particular wing is so real - had the exact same thing at a derelict Victorian asylum near Rugeley last autumn, east-facing rooms both times, which makes me wonder if there's something to the orientation rather than just the history.
What was the vibe exactly - oppressive heavy feeling, or more like you were being watched? Because those tend to point to very different things in my experience.
I've been doing a bit of reading into whether old sanitariums sit on or near ley line intersections more often than chance would suggest (sounds mad, I know, but the patterns are weird), and Ohio's got some interesting alignments if you dig into it.
Did you take any equipment in? Even a basic Mel-8704 would've been worth running in that east wing. I've started pairing mine with a thermal cam now and honestly the correlation between temperature anomalies and EMF spikes has been proper eyebrow-raising lately.
Would love to hear more details - floor plan of the wing, any specific rooms, whether it was consistent across multiple visits. The more data points the better, and this kind of location deserves a proper thread rather than just a one-off visit. Anyone else here been to Ohio sanitarium sites? Feel like the Midwest is massively underexplored compared to the usual New England crowd.
