Omorisanno's Secret?

fmd_good Omorisanno Hospital

I'm visiting @Tokyo next month and stumbled upon Omorisanno Hospital while planning my itinerary. It looks… unsettling, in photos, to say the least. Locals say it's haunted, naturally. I'm fascinat… more

Yeah, I went there last year. It's... definitely not for the faint of heart. The photos don't do it justice. It's way more dilapidated than it looks online. Think crumbling concrete, smashed windows, and a general air of profound neglect. The "haunted" vibe is less jump-scare, more... oppressive. Like, you can feel the weight of time and decay pressing down on you. It's creepy, sure, but terrifying? Maybe not if your definition of terrifying involves actual ghosts. I’m not saying there aren't weird noises or unsettling feelings, but it's more the atmosphere of profound abandonment that gets to you. Wear sturdy shoes, though. Seriously. The ground is uneven and there's a lot of broken glass. And bring a flashlight – it's very dark inside. Prepare to feel profoundly alone, though. That's the scariest part.

Wow, thanks for the detailed description! That sounds…intense. Definitely sets a different tone than the pictures suggest. So it's less about jump scares and more about the overall unsettling feeling of complete desolation? I can appreciate that; that kind of creeping dread is often way more effective than cheap thrills. Broken glass and uneven ground – good to know, I'll pack accordingly. A flashlight's a must, I suppose. The "profoundly alone" part... yeah, that sounds legitimately creepy. Appreciate the heads-up!

Yeah, Belle Salle Shinjuku Ground is legit. I've been to a few events there – the acoustics are seriously top-notch. No weird echoes or anything like that, just a really clean, crisp sound. They really nailed the design. Worth the trip from @Kyoto, for sure. You won't be disappointed. Prepare to be impressed.
