Letchworth Village Letchworth Village Road, Thiells, NY 10984

"Really cool place to walk especially if love history and abandoned places."

"This abandoned complex is a place of despair and spiritual devastation. Derelict buildings with corridors of palpable dread, graffiti covered peeling walls, sagging roofs, scattered furniture and windows with shredded tattered curtains which sway eerily with wandering breezes. The old hospital is possessed by a particularly disturbing and heavy atmosphere. Persons of a certain "heightened ethereal perceptiveness" may detect ghostly whimpering eminating from within gloomy shadows and dark recesses. Indeed Letchworth Village Asylum is a decaying monolith symbolic to decades of human suffering which leaves an uneasy impact on the psyche of those who dare to visit. Not recommended for folks of a nervous disposition!"

"That is an interesting place to see, unfortunately vandalism is everywhere and some buildings are almost in completely decay. The story of this asylum is sad and it seems that the place is haunted. I enjoyed my meeting with a group of deers which stopped by a construction what seems to be a swing."

"It was a very interesting place to explore. A lot of the buildings are open but you're not supposed to go in so enter at your own risk. We had a few paranormal experiences in the main building! Please be respectful if you go. The place has been vandalized quite a bit. This was a residential institution and it closed in 1996. There were awful stories of abuse and neglect."

"This is my favorite spot for photoshoots. Letchworth village was formerly a mental institution which closed down. It's a bit creepy but so many cool photo opportunities. There are a few different buildings with graffiti all over them. You can see abandoned old beds, toilets etc. Definitely the coolest place I've been."
