Exclusive Access to The Abandoned Nazareth Hospital & Sanitarium
Mineral Wells, Texas
There are few places more chill-inducing than old abandoned hospitals, especially those that housed sanatoriums within their walls. The abandoned Nazareth Hospital in Mineral Wells, Texas, is sure to spark fear and apprehension in even the most seasoned of ghost hunters.
It’s dark and it’s dilapidated and who only knows how many souls took their last breath within its walls. Not only did the Nazareth Hospital once have its own sanatorium but this locked and isolated ward is down in the basement, of all places.
The mysteries that are going to interest you, the ghost hunter, as you walk the corridors and step into its chilly rooms, are the more ethereal kind and there are plenty of them.
There are many manifestations reported around the building, including wheelchairs squeaking, cries of pain, the smell of blood and the spirits of nuns and people in white gowns. Most often seen is what many describe as a “ghostly blue nun,” in parts of the hospital. And, lights are seen going on and off across the building, even on floors that no longer have power.
Ready to interact with the spirits of the hospital’s long-dead patients and their carers?
Be careful when climbing the stairs, a spirit who has identified himself simply as “Vern,” likes to trip visitors on the stairs. Everyone is encouraged to always hold the handrail tightly and watch out for Vern.
Oh, and you might need some warm clothing, even in the Texas heat the Nazareth Hospital is cold, cold, cold, always registering 20 to 40 degrees cooler than outside, within its walls.
Are you brave enough to undertake a lone vigil in the basement sanatorium?
Be sure to book now, as tickets are extremely limited for this event, and they are sure to be gone soon!

Nazareth Hospital History
The Nazareth Hospital was bought by nuns, the Holy Sisters of Nazareth, in 1931 for $135,000 the equivalent of over $2 million today. The six sisters moved into the top floor of the hospital to better serve the patients. The hospital began with the sisters, one registered nurse, a janitor, and twelve doctors and operated 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
At first, almost half the hospital’s patients were charity cases and a further quarter only partly paying patients. It’s said that all the hospital equipment, including linens, was used for three times longer than it should have been in order to save money.
It’s assumed the building itself was constructed between 1885 and 1925 but its actual origins are as yet unknown, another mystery of the Nazareth Hospital.
Further History
The building that became the Nazareth Hospital is likely to have been built between 1885 and 1925 but researchers are struggling to put a definitive date and purpose to the building. The date it finally closed is also uncertain. And, few photographs appear to exist of the hospital inside, while it was in operation.
The Nazareth Hospital was open between 1931 and 1956, its 25-year anniversary was celebrated but then it finally closed sometime in the 1960s. The clinic itself moved to the nearby Crazy Hotel and was there until 2009.
From the late 1980s to the 1990s the old Nazareth Hotel building was used for the Palo Pinto County Service Corporation including its Head Start, JTPA, Emergency Food Program, Civil Service, Social Security, and its Family Planning Center, according to reports.
Though the Holy Sisters of the Nazareth began with just six sisters, one nurse and twelve doctors they expanded in 1939 to thirteen sisters, two of which were nurses and one an anaesthetist. They also grew to four registered nurses, two nurses’ aids and two handy men as the hospital expanded to a significant size facility.
In 1931 a Women’s Auxiliary was established to aid the running of the hospital and to help the patients who couldn’t pay.

Did the Battleship North Carolina on April 3rd. I've already booked again for August. The hosts (Both physical and spiritual) were amazing. Recorded several EVP's throughout the night. Some very strong responses with dousing rods. Always skeptical about them, but there were strong responses, especially when we started talking to them like the military members they were. At one point I asked if they wished they had women on Battleships, he replied with a strong "Yes" and my Ghost Box replied with the word "Seductive". He really liked one of the young ladies with us. Turns out she was 18 and he was 20 when he died. Can't wait to do this again!
Just did a tour with this group on the Battleship North Carolina. Absolutely wonderful experience!! My husband and I will definitely be booking again. The leaders are super nice, respectful, and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend!!
Just finished our VIP overnight at Hotel Metropolitan in Paducah! Ms. Venita and Julie were the absolute best! They both made sure we knew what we were doing with equipment, and gave us a fantastic guided tour and explained the history so well. Venita especially made an impression on my group. She is super friendly and definitely knows what she's doing. Can't wait to see her again! I wouldn't want anyone else!
My dad, my sister-in-law, and I stayed at The Metropolitan for a paranormal investigation, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and full of history — but what made our stay exceptional was the incredible staff, Julie and Venita. These two amazing women went above and beyond the entire time we were there. They walked us through all the investigation equipment, helped guide us throughout the night, and made us feel completely comfortable and right at home. Their hospitality was top-notch — from the snacks and drinks they provided to the delicious hot chocolate they made for us during our late-night exploring. Their kindness, patience, and passion for what they do turned our stay into something truly special. If you’re looking for a place filled with charm, comfort, and staff who genuinely care, The Metropolitan Hotel is the perfect choice. Our overnight stay exceeded every expectation. Highly recommend! I wouldn't want anyone else to tour with!! 👻✨🍫
My son and I went to belles grove plantation and it was the best time! We enjoyed everything! Miss V was great! We got a few pictures of something in the windows and I actually started crying which I NEVER would let my son see me cry! It was kinda spooky but awesome at the same time! The team is great and I highly recommend going on one of their tours! Thank u all for a great experience
I had an amazing experience with Haunted Rooms America at the Belle Grove Plantation in King George, VA. The staff was very informative and helpful explaining the various pieces of equipment.
We had such a great experience at the Metropolitan Hotel in Paducah Kentucky. 10/10 would recommend.
Super fun evening! would definitely recommend doing anything they are offering.
