 Riverview Mental Hospital near Vancouver BC. Huge facility on many hectares with many now abandon buildings. Letting the mentaily ill live on the street and self medicate with crack and meth is more cost effective...I guess...

One of the older wards on the grounds...been abandoned for decades. This one part is perticularly creepy, one strip on the north side of the building never gets direct sunlight, and is covered in a black fungus...that with the sighlight filtering through the building...makes this part of the building extra creepy.

It looks like a light is showing inside the window. That turns this into a creepy, haunted shot, well done.
