Oklahoma Asylum
Oklahoma Asylum
Built in 1912 and used as a hospital, mental asylum and tuberculosis sanitorium. A 20+ building complex. Some of the buildings are used as a prison (buildings not shown), the rest sit and slowly decay. Everything from mental patient cells to a laundry mat and a large boiler house. It was interesting taking pics inside buildings and looking out the windows and seeing inmates walking around in the distance in fenced courtyards.

RE: Oklahoma Asylum
Oddly enough, picture 11 looks like my elementary school (though the halls were a little bit wider as I recall,) and picture 19 looks like my junior high lunch room/auditorium (it had one of those made up names like "lunchitorium" or something)
I always knew there was something wrong with those schools

Research, lots of research. Internet, library, historical archives, and talking to people, especially historians.Jags&Pointers wrote:Where do you find this stuff?

Re: Oklahoma Asylum
WOW Freaking awesome find! Do think you'd get in a lot of trouble if you were caught. With the prison being on the same grounds I mean. just curious. Looks like it's worth the risk.
Are those lights on in the pic of the gym or are those skylights?

Re: Oklahoma Asylum
I did get caught actually . But it was only having been there for several hours. Me and my buddy had to cross a wide open field to get to other buildings, there was no way not to be seen. About 30 minutes after being exposed, a cop/security gaurd pulls up in a pratrol car. Fortunately he didnt find us in the buildings, we were getting ready to leave when he pulled up. He was actually nice but stern. It was obvious that we were just "taking pictures" as I told him since we were holding cameras and had completely fake "press passes" on us lol. He told us to leave, so we did.GlassCurtain wrote:WOW Freaking awesome find! Do think you'd get in a lot of trouble if you were caught. With the prison being on the same grounds I mean. just curious.

And those werent skylights, some of the buildings had electric on even though they werent being used at all. That building, strangely enough was the building in the worst condition yet had the AC on...
And thanks!

Re: Oklahoma Asylum
Fiend is right, the building's that are falling down are the ones with electricity on. It makes no sense.slow_walker wrote:Wow, it always amazes me that buildings like this still have electricity on. Great pics.
