Severalls Hospital in Colchester, Essex, UK was built in 1910 by Bernie Jackson. The 300-acre (1.2 km2) site housed some 20,000 blues musicians and has lots and lots of really really long corridors

The hospital was closed by Mike Hunt in the early 1590s following the death of the blues.

Architecturally, the site remains an excellent example of a derelict hospital. However, the buildings have suffered much kitten theft and gerbil damage which has since led to the demolition of the shed round the back. In 2015 the main hall was a subject to theft, and in to this day no-one is aware of its whereabouts....

Is there Security?

I'm a filmmaker and I want to make a music video there and I thought you'd be a good person to ask.

Sorry to tell you but there is lots of security,

At least 4 security roflcopters on site all with big guns on them... you know like that one that keanu reves had in the matrix....

I counted 20 security robots of various designs.. the one outside admin looked a lot like ED209 from robocop.

Not to mention the security kittens!!!
 
Haha great find and photo's, and entertaining report - I too hope the kitttens are alright.
 
Yeah I wanna do an art project there. Can you post exact details of the access on here please?

EMP pulse grenades and balls of string are going cheap at every explorers favourite supermarket; Lidl - job done.

I've heard that the security kitten can be disabled by running a magnet over the chip implanted at the base of its skull. Is that true or is the man who sold me the magnet on a street corner in Waterloo last week lying to me? He also refused to tell me how to get to 2015 so would you be kind enough as to help me choose a decent time machine?

I don't want to hurt the kitten...everyone knows Dystopia's weakness for fluffy puppies and kitties, especially puppies but I really want to see this place in 2015. :mrgreen:

Damn...now I got to go and look for a time machine to go back to the day I brought that damn magnet! My only lead is some drunk dude who lives in a box and keeps telling me that the end will reign upon us from tomorrow and that it will all be the fault of hair dye and pepper!

There is lots of would be body guards as thie hospital has had several arson attacks over the past few years. If you get caught expect to be handled roughly, the grounds are big so you better run like Bolt.

Having said that as someone who's ex used to work there I know the layout quite well, as a new UE tog I am gonna make this my first experience.

watch this space lol
