LA Bucket List | Linda Vista Hauntedlikewoah Hospital

jenna katie and i have been scheming on linda vista hospital for a while. i had stumbled upon a list of abandoned buildings from across the world and noticed that linda vista was conveniently just down the 10 from me. i also found this thing which really got me going - how cool does that file room look!!

our original plan was to sneak in and do an awesome photoshoot, but after some reconnaissance, we realized that the building is super secure, privately owned, guarded by dogs, and haunted. all reasons for making breaking in a bad idea.

turns out that they rent the hospital out as a movie set, so we lazily attempted to work the katie-film school angle. BUT THEN it turns out that there's some nerdy paranormal group that does tours - and voil'a. access.

it wasn't QUITE like we planned it... there were like 300 people there, and it was a guided tour so not much opportunity for photoshoot but it was still super fun! went with jenna, lee and lee's friend matt.

they kill all the lights, and let you wander around with flash lights. they also tell you about the paranormal studies they've done in the building. we pretty much went all over - the psych ward, the morgue, this room that the night stalker used to hide out in, the chapel - but i didnt get to see the file room so I was kind of bummed.

But we did end up taking some awesome photos and got roscoes after, so all in all a win!
