Abandoned Hospitals (Library Binding) (ISBN-13: 9781482458992)

It seems peculiar that hospitals--places where people's lives are saved--can be downright creepy once they're abandoned. Leftover medical instruments, stained walls, and mysterious sounds all contribute to the unsettling feeling one gets once inside. Luckily, readers won't have to travel to deserted hospitals around the world. They can tour them in the pages of this hair-raising volume. They'll visit the Taunton State Hospital in Massachusetts, Old Changi Hospital in Singapore, and others. Plenty of history is mixed in with the odd anecdotes connected with each, and a chilling design and images add to the eerie ambience.
