TELL US NOW. MENGER HOTEL SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS HOTEL. MENGER Joshua M. says, Been around so long Babe Ruth and Teddy Roosevelt stayed there. Right next to the actual Alamo, so built on land where literal 1000s died in the battle. Place is creepy even in the broad daylight. CRACKED.COM

CENTRAL STATE HOSPITAL INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA Amelia B. tells US of the now-closed psychiatric hospital that used to house 2500 patients, saying, The place supposedly closed because of abuse of the patients.

TELL US NOW. HOVRINSKAYA HOSPITAL MOSCOW, RUSSIA One reader says, In Moscow we had an abandoned hospital which was going to be built in the 90s but the construction was stopped when the building was about 90% ready.

A couple of years ago, the city's administration finally decided to destroy it due to many accidents which happened there because the whole complex was constantly deteriorating CRACKED.COM
