Hospitals and Hauntings

Monday morning my Grandpa got sick and had to go to the hospital, because this happened super early in the morning I was unaware until 8am. I just got up and was in the shower, I started putting shampoo in my hair when my mom told me the news, So I did what most would do in this case and quickly washed my hair, jumped out of the shower and got dressed. Of course after I got out of the Shower I was told the rest of the news, he's doing okay and the Doctors are running some tests, "couldn't have told me that before I broke a hair washing speed record". Thankful that he was okay, I hopped in the car with my mom and sister and we headed to the Hospital. We visited my Grandpa, then walked around the Campus finding some very interesting places. The next day we went back to check up on how things were going, I decided to take a walk around some more. Saint Marys is a Very large hospital in fact it's the largest Privately operated, The hospital has 35 miles of halls and is made up 6 buildings and 1 large chapel. It's very easy to get lost, I started in one building and soon was in another and didn't know it, after walking for what seemed like forever I found myself in an unused part of the hospital, I was by myself in this empty area hoping no zombies or ghost came out of nowhere, every turn seemed like a new adventure turning slowly only to find the halls empty. As I looked around I noticed doors had labels some saying Beds or Furniture, It turns out that this area was now storage. Soon I found myself standing in a very old part of the Hospital and I suddenly felt like I was being watched from around the corner. I quickly left the area and headed towards the elevators, I went back to where my grandpa was and hopped on one of the visitor computers and looked up information on the building. Parts of the Hospital are around 122 years old, so they could very well be Haunted. If your ever in Rochester, MN and you walk around Saint Marys and find yourself on the 7th floor of the Joseph Building you may find the same empty and very creepy Halls.
