A CREEPY Soviet military hospital has been left untouched and abandoned for over 30 years since the fall of the Iron Curtain.
Sitting in Budapest, the hospital was once used by Soviet troops to defend against the Nazis in World War 2, but has now been left to crumble and rot.
Starting off as a medical institution used by Soviets in Hungary, the building soon became one of the main hospitals for badly injured soldiers returning from war.
Still barely standing at a mighty 17 acres, the vast complex is surrounded by overgrown weeds and bushes and littered with graffiti and smashed glass.
The hospital itself still has traces of Russian soldiers inside from newspapers thrown across the floor to empty drug bottles with Russian text scribbled across them in every room.

Damaged operating tables still remain as does mould covered walls and dripping taps.
All of which has left a musty stench across the several floors.
First opened in 1904 as a private health institute, the imposing concrete structure soon became a good spot for the Red Army to use as a barrier for warfare.
The fierce fighters occupied it in 1945 as they continued to advance against the Nazis.
After the war a series of new buildings were added which transformed the regular medical site into a mega hospital.
One of the biggest additions was a huge surgery department with theatre rooms and all the latest technology for the time.
This came to good use after the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan back in 1979 in a brutal demonstration of power.
It quickly became a multi-purpose area when thousands of soldiers were sent back home from the vicious fighting weekly.
Many were rushed across to Budapest and to the hospital to get the best possible treatment.
But as communism tumbled across Eastern Europe and the Iron Curtain collapsed leaving the Soviet Union in disarray troops were sent packing from the area.

And the hospital grounds were put out of use as the doors slammed shut.
Locals still remember the days when they lived next to the Soviet military complex.
Margit Arkos, 63, was a resident nearby to the hospital at the time of its abrupt closure.
She said: “Soldiers were treated here, there was a tall, white stone wall surrounding the buildings and they peeked over the fence.
"We were not allowed into the territory of the hospital.
“When they left, there was a big sale, nearly everyone living around here bought chairs, sofas.
“It’s incredible that nearly 30 years have passed, and they have still not been able to decide what should happen to this hospital.”
Laszlo Hajdu, 70, mayor of the Budapest district where the battered hospital still sits said it has been left unused since 1991.
Hajdu claimed it was over a dispute when the Hungarian government refused to pay the Russia for their significant investments into the hospital.
He told Reuters: "They packed everything in rail carriages and left the bare walls to us.
“We said farewell to them in June 1991 with vodka, according to Russian customs, and they left in tears... I was there when we took over the buildings.”
Still to this day tourists go to the hospital graveyard to check out what is left of the old haunting building.

Hostels for soldiers and their families and even a rusting water pump that once powered the small village sit collecting dust nearby.
