  • This is Pripyat's hospital and is where all victims of the accident were first brought to be treated. One died from burns while the others were sent to Moscow's Hospital Number 6 (it specializes in radiation treatment) that evening. Most died agonizing deaths within a few weeks to months. The last to die was a female security guard who stood by her post after the explosions. Her suffering ended after 96 days. The last time I visited these buildings (2004) there were many patient records and medical equipment left in them. These days this area is heavily overgrown. More so than many places in the city.
  • Must be one of the creepiest places in the entire town.
  • Chornoman comments like a god
  • Bean-O> I thought that to, but it's actually not that creapy to visit. And and I am fairly superstitious. The only think creaping me out was that my flashlight suddenly died,(It had new batteries and new light bulb.) when i came to the operating room. And when i came home and took look at my pictures there is a light orb,(Google it if you dont know what it is.) and some strange frog, only aparing on theat one photo of the operating room.
  • down in the basement, the uniforms of the first firefighters to arrive here are still scattered on the floor
  • It is also very radioactive in the basement due to this.
  • Indeed it is, especially the basement.
