I can't believe how the sitting room has decayed and yet the viewing room looks well preserved. Creepy. :)

Oh wow I want those books! I love old books. Thanks for these awesome pics!

Amazing shot how the lighting is just right and the colors work together.

I'm not surprised records like these were abandoned. It gives us the impression time stands still for some. But for all places that simply leave everything behind (as Tina mentioned) the question should be Why. Why? I would like to read thru those files. But I fear I would find nothing but sadness and disillusionment. Electro-shock therapies, other uneffective and inhumane treatments. And those so traumatized they have left an impression in time, their souls burned into the bricks. May they rest in peace.

Very creepy, I wonder why that apron was hung like that?

JUST A THOUGHT I HAD. WHEN I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL FOR THE FIRST TIME LIKE 6 YEARS AGO THE PARKING LOT PAINT LOOK BAND NEW AND THE GRASS WAS ALWAYS MOWED WHY WAS THIS ALL KEPT SO FRESH AND BY WHO?

I WONT EVEN GO IN A BASEMENT OF A REGULAR HOUSE! ITS PRETTY RUN DOWN FOR ONLY BEING CLOSED DOWN FOR LIKE 12 YEARS CRAZY RIGHT.

THE GHOSTS AREN'T THE ONLY THING TO BE AFRAID OF AT DANVERS. THE LAST TIME I WENT THERE THERE WAS THIS BIG DUDE CHACING SOMEONE. I REMEMBER THE PERSON RUNNING IN THE BUILDING WITH A FLASHLIGHT SCREAMING AND THE PERSON RIPPING THE WOOD OFF THE BUILDING ON THE OUTSIDE TO GET IN AFTER THE PERSON. THEN LATER ON PROBABLY LIKE 15 MIN LATER ME AND MY FRIENDS HEARD A GUN SHOT AND A WEID SOUND LIKE A GOOSE JUST GOT SHOT BUT REALLY LOUD. AFTER THAT WE GOT THE FUCK OUT OF THERE CAUSE I WASNT GONNA GET SHOT TOO! THIS WAS LIKE 6 YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS 17

TO THE PERSON THAT FEELS BAD FOR THE PERSON THAT HAD TO SING THE SHOULDNT U FEEL BAD FOR THE PATIENTS THAT LIVED THERE HE WASNT THE ONE SMELLING LIKE PISS! HE ALSO DIDNT HAVE TO SMELL IT EVERY DAY! IM SORRY JUST GOT A LITTLE MAD!

ONLY ONE PROBLEM WITH THIS PIC! Y IS THE MATTRESS FLOATING ABOVE THE BOX SPING OR FRAME THAT IS SUPPOSED TO HOLD IT UP?

I HAVE A FEELING SOMETHING BAD IS GONNA HAPPEN WHEN BUILDING THE APARTMENTS OR A LITTLE WHILE AFTER THERE BUILT. LIKE A HUGE FIRE KILLING MOST OF THE RESIDENTS AND THEN I GETS CLOSED DOWN JUST A GUT FEELING!

HOW DID U GET IN , IN THE DAY TIME? NOT FAIR!

I WENT TO THE OLD ASYLUM A FEW TIMES WHEN I WAS YOUNGER BUT DIDNT SEE THIS PART I WENT IN THE MAIN CHURCH. I SAW SOMETHING WEIRD AND HURD SOMETHING EVEN WEIRDER! SCARY
