The Gonjiam Psychiatric Hospital in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, certainly has every feature and element a building needs to be considered frightening.

If just the appearance of the building doesn’t put a chill down your spine, its story will definitely have you think twice before entering.

Believe it or not, the Gonjiam Psychiatric Hospital was fully operational in 1995: doctors, nurses, patients, the works.

According to legend, its owner was clinically insane and kept many of his patients prisoner.

When government officials came to investigate the many, mysterious deaths of patients, however, the owner ran away to America in 1996.

The hospital was abandoned, leaving the mattresses, equipment, and the mass to nature’s wiles.

Certainly, the past decade has done a number on the building, and is known as one of South Korea’s three most haunted areas.

Whether you believe in ghost stories or not, this is definitely one of the creepiest buildings I’ve ever seen.
