I usually take the bus from camarillo to oxnard and whenever i am sitting at the bus stop i can here very distinct foot steps on the other side of the wall behind me and i always get things thrown at me from  the other side of that wall and  there is a mural on the wall. The building is abondoned and the courtyard is full of trees and bushes. It is realy creepy. I wonder why this building isnt being used. Its odd because its in the front of the college and next to the town center and right behind the bus stop!!!!

I went here in April 2008 with my paranormal group RIP. We snuck into the abandoned building to the right of the new library(which was the morgue and hospital). The door was propped open so we went in. We got weird vibes, some psychics with me felt that patients had been raped in there and treated horribly. I got an EVP that said "we're home" and another that said "go" when we talked about walking down some stairs. One lady felt an evil presence way back in a dark area in the back of a room. We heard a heavy door slam and nobody was there. The building was left just like it was when it was still a mental hospital. Old sinks, cabinets and even chairs lying around. Creepy. Then cops busted us so we had to get out of the building. We walked around most of the night and went in any open buildings. The bell tower wasn't too creepy, thought I did record the sound of a man yelling in pain. ALso the vending machine would make weird noises every time we walked by. The back courtyard in the south quad, near the old courthouse, was very creepy. One man felt a woman following him around, we got a pic of an orb with a face in it. My walkie talkie turned on and only played loud static and I couldn't turn it off. One person in my group had her voice recorder somehow pulled into an open window and dropped into an old dining hall. We called the cops over and they came to open the building. I

nteresting stories, the cops told us that they don't like going in the building (old Unit 28). They said other ghost groups went in there and came out white as a sheet. Said people change after they go in there. We finally got her recorder out, and we got to go inside the buildings. It was dirty and birds had nests in there. Also, some lights were on but the cops said they don't know how they got turned on. They also said part of the movie Pearl Harbor was filmed there, and a night security guard on the set saw a bunch of kids playing on the playground, and didn't understand why they were out so late. In the morning, he told someone and they said the place is abandoned. The guy freaked out so much he threw up and never came back. Also a man working underneath the old morgue building felt a tap on his shoulder, turned around and nobody was there. He took off too. Apparently they can't keep contractors around long enough to remodel the older buildings. So alot of them are abandoned. Beware of the cops,they will give you a ticket. Be careful, there are some non-human entities here. I was told this by a person who's very knowledgable and experienced in the field of paranormal research.

is there still parts that havent ben remodeled?

ok i went to school there and work there so in total have been there seven years, NO it is not haunted and half of the things people have written here are crap.  I had class in the hospitol before it was remodeled to the library, i have pictures of the morgue, and had microscope labs in surgery rooms, i also had class in the hospitol until ten at night.  Never saw anything.  Never heard anything.  I have spent a very long time there and indeed can say you are all liars.

Well - I don't know about all this "haunted" stuff.  I worked there, 1966-1969.  It was a period of transition, LSD was just coming into general use and a young man I really liked who had freaked out still had flashbacks months later and was hospitalized.  He cut his wrists apparently during a flashback, and that was the only patient with that kind of episode that I knew of while there.  A number of elderly patients, however, did die of natural aging or disease.  At that time, anyone with severe MS or any neurological disease of this kind without the means for long term care was able to be cared for in the hospital unit, and they were usually very well cared for, and liked.

The buildings were old then, although kept in good condition, and there were stories about the "old history".  Yes there were patients who were very sad at having to live there, and some were very angry about being put there.  I worked in the children's unit then, and that was truly dreadful - these kids were so sick, and not well treated. But there were also patients who regarded Camarillo as a place of refuge.  We didn't have many "homeless" mentally ill on the street then - they were in the state hospital, bathed and clothed, and fed 3 meals a day.  You have to decide if they were better off.
