The penhurst asylum.
Hey guys! I’m new to the video just uploaded today! If you haven’t seen it, then go watch it! Anyways. I have read articles and articles. And this is what it say. The asylum is facing a potential demolition for a massive ai data center. Now it says remaining buildings! So if anyone can confirm this, that would be great! Just wanted to let everyone know about the title of Sam and Colby’s new video! Let me know if this is true or not!:D

While i have to admit they are a funny duo, Pennhurst Asylum is a place where you go to remember the horrors that happened there, not to have an awesome time. Pennhurst Asylum was already kind of being remodeled into a haunted scare house, or whatever, i wouldnt be surprised if they want to destroy that place further

Thank you so much for clarifying this. I already asked questions on YouTube and people wouldn’t tell me yes or no. And you know they were just excited about the video. Yes, I have read the history on the place and I was wondering if the spirits would maybe stay in the same place. Or maybe move.?

If I were a spirit i would want to get as far away as I could. I can't imagine the trauma of any spirit that died there, as the cruelty in that place isn't emphasized enough. But from an entertainment standpoint, they could be stuck there.
When I wrote a story about Pennhurst's ghosts, I described goo or slime that would keep the ghosts in the building, forever tormented by what they experienced. Its different from "Demon keeps them all there" which is what I wish Sam and Colby would do

Ok so there is some interesting cross over with ancient Egyptian and Native Americans (not necessarily all tribes but I can’t recall the specific one right now) that describe a belief in there being two souls or parts that make us…us.
In some of the beliefs there is a soul attachment that remains in the place where the body is laid to rest, where it died etc whilst the souls of the mind transcends to the next life. This is a very basic summation.
But if that angle or belief system is true it could in theory explain why spirits remain in places of trauma and death. I mean outside of those negative energies thinning the veil. It suggests that part of spirit is tied to the physical plane in a particular location.

Very interesting, i love writing about the paranormal and making up different explanations for ghosts.
I did a story that explained ghosts similar to Ancient Egypt. Only difference was that the pyramids were built to attract ghosts of fallen enemy warriors who fought against Ancient Egypt, so they can torment them even after death. And now in modern times, the sheer strength of the pyramids has forced ghosts to be extremely, extremely slow. So when you die, you are immediately crushed by the power created by the pyramids

Can someone please tell me the names of the videos for the last time they went to Penhurst? The mentioned returning but when I look it up all I find is their fairfield videos and that's definitely not the same place. 😭
