Greenville Tuberculosis Hospital

The old TB hospital and asylum in Greenville is long destroyed, but the ruins aren't quiet. Dark figures still move through the grounds and screams carry from the rubble.

The Greenville Tuberculosis Hospital began treating TB patients in the early 1900s but later also served as an asylum and prisoner release facility. The combination of suffering, death, and institutionalization left a mark on the property. The main hospital building burned down years ago, but the grounds -- now Herdklotz Park -- remain one of the most investigated paranormal sites in upstate South Carolina. Strange sounds including banging, screaming, and the clanging of bells have been heard and even recorded by paranormal teams. Dark shapes have been seen moving around the park area, particularly near where the hospital once stood. Visitors report an overwhelming sense of dread near the old foundations, and electronic equipment frequently malfunctions on the grounds.
