No, that is most certainly not a soap dispenser. My exact words while try desperately not to shoot Cream of Chicken soup out of my nose... "HOLY SH*T!!!!"

Disuse

Kristiara

Either its a cabinet or a really big bar of soap. I am wondering, however, if the floor is really that blurry or is that the picture itself?

Spoked

Kristiara

Absolutely no idea what that could be other than creepy...

Grim Outlook

Kristiara

Brilliant! Actually, i wouldn't say Silent Hill though, more like House on Haunted Hill type thing.

Seven is not my lucky number.

Bones

Kristiara

Yeah, and most regular hospitals when you go in the elevator...the 13th floor is called "records" right on the control panel. Or at least it's that way at StonyBrook, Mather, and St.Charles.

Or some sick kid thought it would be great to take home #666, i know a few people sick enough to do that.

Hilltop

Kristiara

I love the sky in the background, really adds to the place.

What is it about gray and dreary that makes a cemetary. I love going to visit my grandmother when the sun is shining and the birds are singing.

Sickly Green

Kristiara

As i've said before this site is extremely educational. Now i know what to talk about at tomorrow's spagetti dinner at my mothers! Hey ma do you know why graves sink? That will go over well. LOL!

I love this pic, another one to add to my screensaver. I'm thinking of adding some music to it. Perhaps Mozarts Requiem Mass would be fitting.

Patient Number 124

Kristiara

Some states and hospitals handle things differently.

State run hospitals did the best with what they were given. My great grandfather was an accountant for Kings Park, my grandmother used to tell me about how little the hospital really got. He met my great grandmother there as she was a head nurse and she would often complain about how inadaquate the supplies they had to work with were. So in the end the fact that these people got buried and that their grave was marked with a stone was probably more than they ever had in life. The fact that maybe, just maybe a nurse or fellow patient thought of them or shed a tear for them is more than their own families did...its something.

In the end, if carving a name in a stone means not being able to buy a much needed supply to serve the living...then there would be much more dead and a lot less saved or made more comfortable.

Just the way i see it.

The Graveyard

Kristiara

It cant be a ghost, Motts scares them off. I could honestly see him yelling at a ghost for getting in a pic..."Hey your ruining the pic!" LOL!

But at least a good number of them were buried and more than likely had a proper funeral. If no one on the outside cared enough to pick up their body, what they had here was decent. The could have all been cremated. In my opinion, better to have a number and then people like us come around and wonder about them, than to have nothing and be forgotten completely.

Flashlight

Kristiara

Yes! Finally, that is beyond incredible. I love the shadow on the wall. Very Alfred Hitchcock!

Yikes, those old wheelchairs creep me out...those and old rocking chairs.

Looks like maple though, it might stand up if you sat on it.

Marred

If theres someone cleaning the place, they should be fired for the crudy job they did on the Lounge.

Circular

Kristiara

Very neat. Maybe they banged on the doors to get the attention of nurses or guards. Or like Guitorman said, there simply is no true explaination for insanity.

Lounge

Kristiara

Yeah, thats an old HVAC unit. It looks exactly like the one my uncle replaced in his custom shop.
