This place has quite a history. In the Peoria area, many people call it 'Zeller Zone I' .... with 'Zeller Zone 2' being in Peoria itself.

The family that bought this former sanitarium/hospital had the financial backing to renovate the property into expensive apartments. However, because of some rather weird occurrences, the family had to keep replacing and/or repairing what had already been taken care of.

While the family are quite sane, as well as the carpenters and aides, some of the incidents simply couldn't be explained.

I have heard of that

I can tell you the building itself is a wonder to behold on the outside. Quite well done & designed.

Inside? Well, it's one thing to be there during daylight hours....with a strong sun shining.

They now offer tours, in an effort to raise more money to continue the renovations. But there's no way I would be inside that building during evening or night...or even on a cloudy day.

We have some haunted places.I have heard waldos,the driftwood inn are.we have a ghost tour of Vero

 

[AirDancer]

Have you taken that tour?

 

[jasonc]

Have you taken that tour?

No.I know the spots. Why pay to go where I mostly have been? The only spots they go that I have not been in is the driftwood,Waldo .I'm a meter reader
I will be reading those sooner or later

 

[AirDancer]

Good point, about why pay to go where you've been before!

I will check.they might go to homes that I can't read.there are plenty to post from Sebastian, fellesmere and roseland.

 

[AirDancer]

During the tour, do they go into those houses/structures?

Yes

 

[AirDancer]

I bet they make good money with those tours

 

[jasonc]

80 minutes for the tour time.beach only.12 bucks.meets at waldos.some if the things they mention aren't well known to me .the pirates and the Ashley gang .the two other shipwrecks

 

[AirDancer]

There would be a long history dealing with pirates, I would imagine

yes when I take pics such as the hospital I often really cant see the beauty of the clouds. I just snap as they talk to me. the composition of peace is amazing. the sky showing that and the hospital being a place of trials and worries.

It definitely pays to listen & heed when the 'clouds' talk to you! There is such tranquility surrounding the hospital in that photo!

The front of the building, with the columns & railing above, is stunning! (I wouldn't want to clean the windows on the outside, though!)

I will hit up the old remnants of the hospital where I was born tomorrow(not far from the catholic church). I will try to dig up the history of this and post.

 

[AirDancer]

Some of the old hospitals were architectural wonders. Like the former Zeller Zone 1, in Bartonville, IL (outside of Peoria).
