you know at one point this was the greates place to be, but now...it's actually depressing to think that this is all that is left.

theres a movie i watched called "session 9" its a movie that is almost based off of pennhurst... i recondmend that u watch this creepy ass movie

i was always curious about pennhurst and wanted to visit becuase i heard it was haunted... is that true?

Feel like I'm there.

Captain HOWDY? Like... from The Exorcist?

Sweet.

Thank you so much for taking these photos. I remember begging my parents every weekend to take me to EF. I stumbled across your site thanks to google. ^_^ Your photography brings back so many memories, and also the sadness I felt the day this park closed, and watched it turn to this.

Same here, Jessy. Thank goodness for i-am-bored.com. But better yet, thank you Motts. Your photography is breathtaking and so beautiful. It provokes so many emotions. Thank you.

I can't believe the absolute perfection you pulled off in this shot considering the condition of the building. Thank the Good Lord for those who know how to get it done! lol

Actually, my beautiful 11 year old daughter, whom of which I have to school on the word chute, is quite accurate. There is a chute like apparatus there and although I don't think they threw the bodies down it, I'm pretty sure they were lowered. But considering her age....throwing would seem to be a bit more morbidly fascinating. :) I'm glad to see my daughter has found your wonderful site Motts.

I think they leave these lights burning to give the impression that someone is in the building. It does have an effect though, because I was more nervous walking into the lighted areas than I ever was walking into any dark tunnel. lol

And what light caused that shadow in the top window to the right? : )

Awesome shot

Good Gawd, I love me a tunnel.

Thank you so very much, Barbara. :)

Beautifully haunting, this pic. Is there any way to e-mail Motts?
