So ive been lurking here a few months, and thought of the abandoned old peoples home near my house. Me and I friend discussed and agreed to go, any essential things we need to know? I know the basics, bring a torch, camera, friend, phone etc.
1. Bring me.
2. Hit switches
3. Get bitches.
no but like warm clothes, bit of food and the basic stuffs.
Pillage, loot and destroy anything you can get your hands on
OR
Be sure to wear proper clothing, long pants, long sleeved shirt, some sort of dust mask or respirator (Best. You shouldn't breath in any dust/mold/asbestos) and close-toed shoes (and preferably steel-toed boots).
Don't bring drugs or any related paraphernalia, guns, porn, spray paint or anything else that could land you in hot water if you get picked up by a cop.
Don't break anything, if you can't find a way in, DON'T MAKE ONE
I would bring 3 flashlights. A main, powerful lantern, a smaller backup and an emergency one.
Don't count on your phone always working, the signal might be weaker inside of a building.
Always bring a friend or 2 in case you get hurt.
If you get picked up by the fuzz, don't do ANYTHING stupid.
Tell them exactly why you were there, you wanted to take pictures and explore abandoned buildings. Tell them you didn't want to damage anything, you didn't break anything and you didn't plan on smoking anything.
Some might just let you off on that, the worst thing they can do is stick you with trespassing and maybe breaking and entering if they feel like it. Honestly it's not too bad, you do some community service.
You might need a crucifix and some holy water, based off my own experiences.

Stripper singles are better choice
Got caught one time and i'm telling you ITS THE MOST SCARIEST THING EVER HAPPENED.
It was me and a friend of me we both take pictures as a hobby so we decided to take pictures of something more interesting it was a office that they where destroying.
First you sense that there is someone else you don't hear anything or see anything you just know there is something else than you and your friend.
Than you start to hear footsteps so you tell your friend to stop moving and both you hear footsteps/doors opening etc. It could be just a guy that spotted you and wants to ask what you are doing but it could also be a drug addict / criminal that wants to kill you.
Than comes the moment that you know you're both going to hate (you and the guy that's looking for you) you walk around a corner and OH JEZUS FUCKING CHRIST there's another person.
The security guard actually also jumped a little and said something like "Fuck you scared the shit out of me" Just be polite and say what you are doing, we where just taking pictures and I pointed out we didn't touched or took anything and showed them a few on my camera, he just showed me the exit and told me to not go in here anymore since it's dangerous.
Just take his advice and leave the place, normally they only ask for somekind of ID or a passport and than just let you go if you didn't break anything and are just taking pictures. One time when they where breaking down a whole village (Multible big houses warehouses) I was taking pictures of the houses and one of the guys walked up to me and asked what I was doing. He was fine with it and told me to not go inside the buildings and keep a little distance from the cranes that where wreaking the buildings.
Russian urbex is:
1. flashlight
2. photocamera
3. not to be dressed in an evening dress or ceremonial dress
4. good shoes (i think better choise is combat boots)
other things for BABIES!
