One of the scariest times in my life was when my mother wanted me to have ECT. She looked up one of the few psychiatrists in our area who actually still performed the procedure and dragged me along. Luckily for me, the doctor gave a strong negative when my mother suggested the procedure. I wanted to hug that man that day.

its so weird how everything was left as is....

The only thing more beautiful than the asylum in this shot is the gorgeous landscapes. So many hills and fields.. this must be remarkable in bright daylight.

Wow. It still has carpeting? How awesome

Wow! Beautiful. Infrared shots are amazing.

I was actually at Pilgrim State yesterday and just started doing research last night and today on the hospital and came across your website. It's a scary, creepy place but at the same time it's calming. Can't explain it. I saw so many cats living at the building. I wonder who is feeding them and giving them water? I took lots of photos at the building as well. I guess kids hang out there a lot and rip the place to shreds. Which building is the morgue located in? And the autopsy room?

have they started taking the buildings down yet to begin construction for that old people's place?

I have been to Glenn Dale. Unfortunately my friend got scared on the second floor so we never made it past there. These shot are beautiful. Being in these places, you can just sense the life that once occupied these halls! I love it.

i have been there is is nuts
