Abandoned Places

[Chiller]

Oh Chiller! Now you've got to get into that building.. I'm curious now.. lol

Thanks Miss Bully. I was a little disappointed with what I didnt find. I guess my expectations were high, and hoped to find some WW2 stuff. It was obvious wandering around, this place has been renovated a few times since the war, but the basements were killer, but no light at all. The only way to see was popping the flash a few times.
My brother in law is a WW2 Historian, and he is going to grab me more info on this place. Apparently the high profile POWs were from a sub called U31, but Im not 100% for sure. They kept them here, and treated them like royalty, so they would not want to escape...and also kept them away from any contact with back home. I have found another pow camp online,Im hoping to search out, but have heard that the police use it as a training facility, so the chances of getting in are pretty slim.
I might be getting into an abandoned bowling alley this weekend.

Oh I hope you are able to find something when you go back and check the building out. We have some POW/Japanese Internment camps around here. When the weather warms up I am going to have to check them out. But our camps are basically rubble but the last time I was there it was still pretty cool!

 

[Chiller]

Well, if it were not for the dang police, I could get in anywhere. Im going on 359 years old, and Im far too old to have a criminal record. :lmao:

Ok here is how you get over there... Swim (unless you are afraid Nessie might get ya) make sure your camera is in a water proof case.. And then you've got it. You can climb the poles and take pictures??

Or have you already thought about this?

I have tried to look after myself all these years. It was tough, with the two world wars, but ya know....we got by. I have only had to replace my coffin twice, and move to a new crypt once.

More from the POW camp.
One of the grand doors I found in the basement. This must have been one secure arse door.

Storage closet. This room was about 96% darkness. I had no idea what was in here, and just pointed and shot this image with the flash. This was a surprise photo

From what I heard from others who have seen this place. There is a story that some of the pows tried to make and escape through one of the tunnels, and at the other end tried to dig a further tunnel underground. I can not confirm this is the "real" tunnel. But I got in about 10' and could only see by flashing the flash on the camera. Between the smell and the darkness, I think I can get back with a flashlight, and mask, I might get in further.​

NO Comment on this one. ​

This part of the Cafeteria, was used up until recently by the Islamic community as a meeting place. I am not sure how long ago , they had a last gathering, but it looks like they just ate and ran.​

This is untouched, and I found this as it has been shot. This is a flyer advertising the last VIP meeting there. I found half devoured dinners, and opened cans of food.​

Looks like somebody tried to clean this part of the kitchen.​

A can of open food.....pretty damn mouldy and stinky. :lmao: Viewing this, I got the impression it was the last "visitors" to the building that opened this can. I want to find out when that last dinner was. Should have looked at the paper. :er:​

Wow, awesome find, Chiller! How bizarre about the partially eaten food...wonder what made 'em run??

Love the security door shot.

I looked at the original of that image with the newspaper. Feb 2007 was the day of the party.
My bro in law is getting me some info on the camp. He has 4 books on it. :mrgreen:

Well my friend you are definitely going to have to give me your secret. :lmao:

Hooray! You went back!! Oh that door is amazing! Talk about a heavy duty door!! :shock: Wonder what they were trying to keep in...:shock: or out! I bet that place was incredible!

Wow, Chiller, I'm a ghosthunter and you're givin' me heebies poking in all those dark places! Yikes! Were you alone?

It is a shame this place will be torn down for some cheap subdivision. :er: There is one door I found that you have to turn this big wheel, and it unlocks 3 bolts. Pretty cool.
No secret...I eat well.

Thank you MrsDoe. Yeah, I go alone. If you look back a few pages, there is a thread with an abandoned house. That place was total darkness, and I only had a small flashlight. There was only a small hole to crawl into. I was a little nervous at first, but eventually got used to the darkness.....
Later in the day at this camp, I ran into 3 other photogs, and eventually we got the boot.

You eat well.. That's funny! Wow that door sounds fabulous! I wonder if before they tear down the building if you could see if you could possibly purchase those two doors. Think of the possibilities!!!

I would have this big ol red sucker as my front door. Would off set the nice gravestone in my back garden. :lmao:
