Old Dairy Road

California, United States

Hidden within the scenic sprawl of University Park lies the chilling remains of the Scary Dairy. Once part of the Camarillo State Mental Hospital, this eerie locale has long inspired spooky stories and tales of the macabre. Abandoned for decades, its skeletal foundation stands as a haunting testament to a bygone era— graffiti-covered walls whisper stories of days past, while local legends hint at unspeakable acts. To explore Scary Dairy, head down University Drive and make a left onto Old Dairy Road.
