Anyone else think old hospitals are way more active than cemeteries?

Completely agree with this. Cemeteries get all the attention but honestly the energy in an old hospital is something else entirely. The sheer volume of trauma, pain, and confusion that gets absorbed into those walls over decades - that's going to leave an imprint far stronger than a graveyard ever could.

Been to Prestwich Hospital near me a few times before they redeveloped parts of it. The old Victorian wards especially. You dont need any equipment to feel something is off, your body just knows. That particular kind of institutional dread is hard to describe to people who havent experienced it.

From a ley line perspective as well, a lot of these old Victorian hospitals were built on sites with pre-existing significance. I dont think that's coincidence. The location was chosen for a reason and centuries of concentrated human suffering layered on top just amplifies whatever was already there.

What locations have others investigated? Curious whether its mainly the psychiatric hospitals people are finding most active or general infirmaries too, because my experience suggests the psychiatric sites are on another level entirely.

@SophieGhost yeah cemeteries are basically just the storage unit, aren't they. All the interesting stuff happened at the hospital.

Spent a night in a decommissioned psychiatric ward up near Leeds years back and honestly I've had more response off a bag of crisps than I get in most graveyards. The old hospital was something else though - constant
