My brother went to the abandoned Amiri Hospital in Kuwait City and took a bunch of pictures. The place looks extremely freaky. My favorite shot has to be the one above, the coffin plus the word HELP scribbled onto the wall is just chilling. You can check out some of the pictures he took on his flickr account [Here]
Update: Below is a screen shot of my brothers flickr statistics, it shot up from 200 views to 10,100 views a day.

Epic place to shoot a horror/gore movie
specially SAW!
I might plan to film a Saw remake there with my friends. That is if they take that place down. If they do, eh I’ll just use one of the bathrooms at my school. x)
Thats the next location for Bioshock.
This is really cool, looks like the commercial break images in the MBC Action channel
Hey I’ve crept around the forum for years and have always admired your brother’s photography. Just thought I’d show my appreciation now–you’re a sensational talent, man. Keep it up!

Well done ! great pictures.
where is that even located :/
wow ! thats really freaky!! how can they let a place stay like that! thumbs up for your bro 🙂
If your bro could provide a description of each picture he shot, it would provide an insight on he felt when he was clicking and it describes the photo too
Someone should organize a paintball outing there!
Was there a big fire there? What happened to this place?
What’s the camera he’s using? nice shots

Great shots… Thanks for sharing.
I’m sorry I haven’t been living in Kuwait for two years now. When did they close Amiri Hospital???
nice pictures …. congrats to your Bro good job…
imagine that place in the night …so set to take a horror movie
Hey everyone, thanks for the comments, really appreciate it :]
Yeah! Remind me of SAW movie !
Where is that place exactly?? i know it’s in Kuwait City, but where?
I swear I got goose bumps looking at those pics! And you are right the one you posted is the most ………. I ran out of words. Patrick i assume you are the brother. Kudos to you man!
You should really consider submitting those pics to … I dont know TV networks or channels. Maybe national geographic? I don’t know but I’m sure someone will have something to say about these pics! And the fact that they are completely untouched and natural like that will blow some minds away!
I wrote a blog entry about my trip if anyone is interested.

I think this is the old psychiatric hospital in the Amiri Hospital complex and not the currently running main building.
wow he is really talented where he was hidding all this time !
these pictures look like an opening for a tv show from HBO isn’t it ?
Been there to take some photos with friends, I photographed the same exact room and coffin, here is the link:

Was the word Help painted on the wall when you took that pic?
Awesome pics – don’t remember where I first saw these, but thought you might like them. But I reckon yours are better…

Saw these tonight at Reuse 4.0 and they look even more awesome ‘in the flesh’ – great work!!
what is the location in Kuwait of this building ?
right next to the corkscrew building (al tijaria) in kuwait city. opposite the large park.
Just wanted to ask: do you need to have a permit to go in and take photographs?
