[QUOTE=TurbisV2;23199304] Some of these places look really creepy :ohdear:[/QUOTE] Well they are abandoned, which gets you halfway there. All they need are a few urban legends and there you go; you got your haunted spots.

Here is one from outside of my hometown in Louisiana Abandoned school [url]http://www.strangeusa.com/ViewLocation.aspx?locationid=4542[/url] [url]http://www.hauntla.com/ellerberoadschool.html[/url] I used to go out here when i was in high school and there are some weird things in there. Also this one Barksdale Defense Area Site BD-50, Stonewall, Louisiana (32-18-08 N latitude, 93-47-03 W longitude) BD-50C (32-17-37 N latitude, 93-47-16 W longitude) BD-50L This complex is located to the southwest of Barksdale AFB, northeast of Stonewall. It is also composed of two separate parcels of land (personal visit, 1995). This installation was built to protect SAC operations at Barksdale. It was used by Nike Hercules units from November 1961 to March 1966, the same time frame as site BD-10 (Morgan & Berhow, 1996). Louisiana State University uses the former control site (BD-50C) for animal research; I believe they also own the launcher site (BD-50L) although it is unmarked and appears abandoned when viewed from the road. To find this site, take Hwy 171 south from Shreveport to the town of Stonewall. At Stonewall, drive east on Stonewall-Frierson Road. Turn left on Missile Base Road. The road will turn to the right then back to the left; at that point glance to your right to see the launcher area. Continue on Missile Base Road through a right turn to the launcher site entrance. At this point the road turns left and the name changes to Keithville Kingston Road. Follow it north about ½ mile, and you will find the control site on your left (Personal visit, 1996).

I have a abandoned middle school next to my community. Some people say that kids smoke weed there.

That Cathedral looks creepy as fuck.

The first pic of the submarine base reminded me of Black Mesa. Pripyat seems like a cool place to explore.

Awesome content. Anything abandoned and russian is cool.

The half life symbol garagaga

I wanna go to the battleship island and explore it. Would be so fucking cool.

[QUOTE=bravehat;23200394]I wanna go to the battleship island and explore it. Would be so fucking cool.[/QUOTE] Assuming the floor doesn't collapse.

No risk no gain :v: The buildings aren't in that bad a state of decay, besides the japanese are hopefully reopening the island soon or they already have.

I've seen that abandoned town in Cyprus. From a distance, of course. All the washing is still hanging on the line. It's very creepy.

I somehow have a fear for very big and dark empty spaces. Pictures from inside the Chernobyl NPP's sarcophagus send a chill down my spine.

[QUOTE=SilverDragon619;23200569]that building on the middle left is the building Price shot Zakaev with the sniper[/QUOTE] Yeah its weird replaying the game after seeing a picture tour of the area. So accurate. [editline]08:26AM[/editline] I think the Lambada is from a Half-Life fan. I mean really. Its Orange in an Orange Circle.

Fuck yea! Sealand!

[QUOTE=SilverDragon619;23200569]that building on the middle left is the building Price shot Zakaev with the sniper[/QUOTE] Price didn't shot Zakaev. [editline]12:33PM[/editline] Oh shit I forgot you play as price.

I love and hate sites like that. Just when you think you're done reading that cool page and go watch tv or play bc2, you notice links to more awesome pages and you just keep reading and reading, you don't seem to be able to leave.

I want to go explore the water park in Russia so bad. All kinds of abandoned places interest me.

The fact that there is a lamba spray painted there creeps me right the fuck out

[QUOTE=TurbisV2;23199304]guise de lamda loks like a arm hodling a crowbar[/QUOTE] Hmm...I never noticed that before. I wonder if that was one of the intentions when making Half Life (obviously it's a nuclear physics/radiation symbol too, but maybe this was also one of the intentions). Feel free to vote clocks if this is a known fact.

That sub base is unbelievably cool. I have to see that sometime.

Eerie and fascinating [img]http://www.thecoolist.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/ruins-of-detroit_marchand-and-meffre_17.jpg[/img]

They started to work on that Ryugyong Hotel again. [img]http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/446/200910wuglyryugyong.jpg[/img] Not that it will ever have a single tenant thought.

I want to live in the north korean hotel by myself and go insane
