I asked my mom today if she knew anything about Pennhurts. Turns out that my Grandma's friend's son was in there, and that she got upset when Pennhurst closed 'cause she didn't know what she was going to do with her son...why couldn't she just love him?

This photo is absolutely incredible...it makes me want to smile because for some reason it makes me feel as if whoever is still there is safe...

...perhaps it looks like someone got too tired to find a bed...if there ever was a bed placed in there.

Exits

I wonder...is there someone on the other side of that door waiting to say, "Boo!"?

The picture is strange...I'm not sure if I would want to visit Pennhurst, maybe just get a closer look at it...like walk around in the bushes and hide ya know?

This is scary. Just looking at the windows makes me believe that someone is staring out of them in the darkness. It's giving me a scary feeling...::gets chills::

Walkways

I love this picture. It shows the emptiness of the place with the leaves just settled there.

Bathtub

I would hate to think that I would have to be watched while I bathed. It's kind of eeky and very sad what happened at Pennhurst. Beautiful buildings, but the place is haunted with sad memories, and dreadful sufferings.

Patient Tunnel

Perhaps there's more of a supernatural force at work here. Spirits of those that have long since been forgotten at Pennhurst, the souls that died there. They could very much have a part in what goes on inside those walls, especially the lights flickering.

Stretcher

Just by looking at this picture makes me think of how many souls could be traveling the corridors of Pennhurst. How many that died there could still actually be there, because they had no where else to go.

Adminstration Drive

This is my first time looking around on this site, but this picture is intriguing me. I'm sitting here wondering what it was like to be in there all those years ago, to have no true connection with the outside world...it's sad...

Welcoming

Sande...I live about a half an hour away from this place...I haven't heard that many stories...all I heard was that when they closed the place down that all the patients were let go and now living in the neighboring city (starts with a P)

Staircase

Jewelzy08

I wouldn't want to go up those stairs at all. That big splotch of brown there, where the holes are, looks like someone is standing at the top of the steps almost...it's probably my imagination, but those steps are creeping me out...

Administration Arch

I absolutely LOVE the contrast of this photo. Look out there's those black dots just inside the arch. Shows out much this building is deterioting. (spelling on that word?)

Sande...how in the world did you get into Pennhurst? I know of one way, but I don't want to disclose it here...email me: Liteoffantasy@aol.com

Medical Arch

There's nothing like Pennsylvania in the winter...especially at a "medical" institution.

Ancient Room

I heard that Pennhurst caught fire once...maybe this is one of those rooms that got caught on fire?

Tub

Jewelzy08

It's kind of odd how someone just "left" a towel there...perhaps there's more to this than we think. ::winks::

Examination

Jewelzy08

The way the light just captivates the standing of the chair is incredible, especially the shadow of the chair. I've only got to see the outside of Pennhurst, and was ALMOST caught by the National Guard, but thank you Motts for taking the time to share your experience there. Motts...how exactly di you get into Pennhurst w/o being seen? Please email: liteoffantasy@aol.com
