Abandoned hospital in Plaquemine

Who knows of this or has been? I went many years ago during the Caterie Days. Not sure how no one was ever arrested from trespassing but I used to go a lot for the thrill. Does anyone recall the name of it? I'm interested in the history so I can find out if it was really haunted. This place was crazy.

In Port Allen? Where is it located? Or are you talking about the old River West in Plaquemine?

The old River West was just renovated and reopened.

Never heard of a hospital in Port Allen

I bet you're thinking of Plaquemine. There was the old Spedale Hospital, which closed and later reopened as Caring, a youth place. It closed several years back.

No they built a new facility on LA 1.

Was in plaq walking distance from a church.... Think there was a nursery in this hospital but could have been a mental one as well. Trying to get the story straight lol

You should go check out the asylum hospital north of Baton Rouge. I think it's near the tiki tubing place. Always wanted to check that out.

River West in Plaquemine, AKA Killer West
And as someone else corrected "killer west" was not renovated. No one will touch that place because it had such a bad reputation when it was open. The built a brand new facility on LA1.

Allison Collins on Thursday night at the Caterie was a cool time.

It's in Central on Greenwell springs rd. Appears to Still be maintained even if not housing patients.

Oh HELL no. I can't even watch scary movies anymore bc my nerves are so shot. No way can I go into an Asylum nowadays. I had to be pretty damn drunk to even step foot into the abandoned building in Plaq. I'm glad I'm not the only one who knew about this. I've heard stories but they were probably just "stories." No matter how intoxicated I was those times, I remember everything soooo vividly. From the room where security used to be, nursery, and rooms with very old beds. I even climbed a ladder of somesort up to the roof. This place was like being in a scary movie.

Def Wasn't River West. I looked on a map and nothing stuck out.

Off Hwy 1 where it splits in the middle and becomes a one way (from what was told)
Posted on 2/28/15 at 10:24 am to GeauxLSUGRL
Oh yea that is the one in "downtown" Plaquemine. that thing has been closed for years

Greenwell Springs Hospital.
I wouldn't recommend going exploring. As these people found out, even though it's abandoned, they obviously still have cameras.
