* [http://www.deadmalls.com/ Deadmalls.com] documents abandoned, dead, and dying shopping malls.
* ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20131102215213/http://www.forgottenoh.com/ Forgotten Ohio]'' is filled with pictures of abandoned locales within the state of Ohio that the author has paid visits to. They run the gamut from factories, warehouses, and schools to ghost towns, drive-in theaters, and weird houses. Unsurprisingly, these places usually come with ghost legends.
* [https://www.wikiwand.com/en/The_Backrooms The Backrooms] lives on this trope. The most common theme for levels is that they are indoor man-made locations (with often no way to get to the outside, if an outside is even visible) and those that are outside locations will usually have several man-made structures. In almost all cases though, these structures are abandoned (at least by civilized beings, entities are another story). Some still have the appearance of being functional for whatever purpose they appear to be, (many actually ''are'' functional, though whoever staffs them is not seen), and others are in ruins. All of the Trope examples mentioned above are present (including the Ghost Planet) plus abandoned hospitals, schools, prisons, hotels, restaurants (of all sorts) , libraries, and even shopping malls. Wanders might make outposts, waystations, or settlements in some of the safer ones, but even these were abandoned until they were discovered, with no trace their original inhabitants - assuming there were any.
