List of terms related to Glenn Dale Hospital

Glenn Dale Hospital was a tuberculosis sanitarium in Prince Georges County, Maryland in the United States. Although the complex is located in Maryland, it is owned by the government of Washington, D.C.. It is a large facility, consisting of 23 buildings on 210 acres, that was built in 1934 and closed in 1982 due to asbestos. Though it is now closed and will be eventually demolished, for decades it was an important public health institution near Washington, D.C.. Park Police patrol the hospital grounds regularly. A local police officer, Howard Johnson, also resides on the premises. His most recent "busts" were three Annapolis-area teenagers at 10:10 PM on October 10th 2007.

It is said that Glenn Dale is a haunted institution and many teenagers and young adults sneak in to see if ghosts and other paranormal things actually exist. It has been confirmed by Howard Johnson that gang members from the MS13 and other gangs, have taken up residency on the premises. Also, Howard Johnson reported that there is a fugitive, wanted for assault, that they have been trying to find on the 210 acres of the hospital.

Despite popular belief, the large incinerator present on the hospital grounds was not used for the destruction of human remains. Instead, hospital waste was burned.

The hospital grounds consist of several buildings:

1. Children's Nurses Home
2. Children's Hospital Building
3. Residence "D" Dormitory
4. Building "C" Nurses Home
5. Building "F" Duplex House
6. Building "D" Doctor's House
7. Building "G" Duplex House(Superintendent's Residence)
8. Building "E" Doctor's House
9. Adult Hospital Building
10. Warehouse and Garage
11. Heating Plant
12. Sludge Bed Enclosure
13. Sedimentation and Control Building
14. Water Softener House
15. Pump House
16. Employee Building
17. Laundry
18. Residence "C" Dormitory
19. Hot House
20. Four Apartment Building No.1
21. Four Apartment Building No.2
22. Paint Shop
23. Incinerator

The buildings are characterized by broken glass and overgrown vines. Several of the buildings also have collapsed roofs.

The children's hospital building and adult hospital building are the most widely explored structures by local trespassers. This is primarily due to their close distance to Glenn Dale Road, a local street that bisects the hospital grounds.

Both the children's and adult's buildings are connected underground by a series of underground walkways. These walkways join the basements of both buildings together. The basements of the hospital buildings are extremely dangerous. Large pieces of rusty, sharp, metal and debris hang from the ceiling. Also, the buildings contain large amounts of asbestos. Each hospital basement has its own morgue. Today, these walkways are littered with garbage, broken glass, and graffiti. In addition, parts of the walkways are flooded with nearly 3 feet of water.
