[QUOTE=elevate;41096875]Wall paintings. [t]http://www.unquiettomb.com/gallery/cache/pennhurst-state-school/pennhurst22.jpg_595.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Normally, I just assume some vandals did that to scare the shit out of urbexers.
Other people.
I remember once me and 3 other people went to some house we saw on the road in my neighborhood. The house was almost impossible to get inside, since the back is full of trees, the windows are boarded up, and the steps in front of the house were smashed entirely. We climbed up to where the door was, and entered normally. First, it was dusty as hell. Second, the house's furniture was all torn up. Each piece of furniture, from couches to the fucking chairs had some kind of gun or drug in them. One of my friends also found a god damn C4 in there, which told us it's time the get the hell out of there. That is personally one of my fears during urbex.
A while back when I visited an old mental asylum (which I'm revisiting soon), one of the buildings was a medical ward for children. On the walls were drawings of cartoon characters, namely the peanuts (in an attempt to make the place seem more friendly, but now just looks eerie). If you aren't familiar, here's a picture of some of the characters. [img]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/40/Peanuts_gang.png/235px-Peanuts_gang.png[/img] The eyes were basically just dots (like in the pic above), except somebody had come in and drawn blood coming out of them. Needless to say, a Linus with bleeding eyes and a sickening smile is enough to make anyone shit themselves. [editline]20th June 2013[/editline] I had pics, but it was to dark to make anything out.
My biggest fear really is to run into people/cops/security; it's extremely hard to find anything rural around where I live.
Usually drips and sudden movements creep me the fuck out. nothing scarier than "drip drip drip" then a rat running past and my friend falling into a shelving unit...
Went back to the school place in the middle of the night Lets count how many unsettling things happened 1. The first place we cut through was the back parking lot of an old restraunt, we climbed up on this storage thing to the left of the back door, and about a foot higher than the back door, and as we go to get all the way up on the roof so we can get to the other area, a fucking worker comes out for a smoke as we're about to step on the ledge above the door. 2. After that, the entire trip to the place was fucking creepy, especially the fact we had to cut through an old shed that had weird red stains reminiscent of blood on the walls and floor 3. The fact as we walked under streetlights they would shut off, and there seemed to be no life anywhere, or even the sound of nature and shit (This being a huge, heavily wooded suburban area nearby a park) 4. FUCKING WINDOWS MAN. when we walked near the building we saw a light moving around on the second floor 5. As we got closer to the building, we heard a child laughing from somewhere in the back lobby of the place. 6. When we climbed up on the roof, we saw something move in a window, and my friend said he felt a strange attraction toward the window, as though something was subconciously pulling him toward it. 7. Something got thrown out one of the windows while we were up there, before we climbed up to the area with no more windows 8. Once we got up on the roof, we saw fucking people shambling around in the field near the front entrance 9. The school is across the street from a fucking police station, and in plain view of it (took some fucking balls the first time we snuck onto the site) 10. We ran into a bunch of really idiotic people so we cut through an alley and to a pathway. 11. Said pathway led to a graveyard. 12. Being chased by a groundskeeper through a graveyard 13. Sliding down a hill on trashcan lids to get away (The hill was like 50-60 feet up, and it was almost directly down) 14. Sneaking past a bonfire at the house we ended up closest to 15. Realizing that was a cops house when we got out to the street and saw a police charger in the garage 16. The entire way back to my friend's house we kept hearing weird noises in the bushes 17. Once we got back, we realized that someone followed us into the graveyard, and the groundskeeper was trying to warn us of said fact, didnt give a fuck we were in the graveyard at 2 am 18. We played WoW with friend's girlfriend until 7 am 19. Someone banging on the window. 20. THE SECOND FLOOR FUCKING WINDOW, NO LEDGES OR ANYTHING (as i said, fucking windows. they fuck everyones shit up)
There was this one time someone switched my flashlight with a fleshlight. 2spooky4me

"Who the fuck is in there??" Generally followed by insta-flight, cramming yourself into a nook that nobody would expect a person to be in, jumping into empty grain silos or climbing elevator shafts until you are just out of view.

One thing that does scare me is going to a hospital with an area like a forest. Only once have I done that. And I'm not going to do it again(atleast maybe not alone)

I'm moving to Grand Forks, North Dakota in like a month. Does anyone know if there's any cool places to urbex there? I looked it up and couldn't find anything.
[QUOTE=Steamswitch;41270629]I'm moving to Grand Forks, North Dakota in like a month. Does anyone know if there's any cool places to urbex there? I looked it up and couldn't find anything.[/QUOTE] Drive around, get familiar with the area, ask the crackheads.
[QUOTE=Chaoswolf725;41246061]I want a story for the elevator shaft one[/QUOTE] Milverton used to have a bunch of grain elevator silos off the main drag between the silos there was a building that ran from the ground to the tops. One way up was a ladder behind the building and the other was an elevator inside at the exact center between the silos. I was poking around inside one time when I heard the telltale sound of the door I came in by opening and closing, followed by rapid footsteps in my direction and someone saying "where are ya'??" Quickly searching for a place to hide I found nothing but the elevator which itself was not useful however the shaft frame around it looked ladder-like so I jump on that and climb up, clamber through the frame and up the shaft until I'm between floors. The guy walks by twice and I chill up there for something like ten minutes before I assume it's safe, climb down and get the hell out of there.

I went to an abandoned insane asylum today. All the windows were boarded up so it was pitch black and all we had was a cellphone light. There was broken glass everywhere and creepy drawing on some of the walls. I am going to go back later and take some pictures.
