The creepiest thing is how this site that I find so educating and artistic deteriorates into blurbs about peoples's sexual fetishes and torture fantasies, THAT's the creepiest part - sorry.

The Safe

me

There is a resturant which has a safe like this here in Golden, CO. I think it was an old bank bldg. Needless to say they built around it; you cant possibly move these things, they weigh tons, but anyway, they let people take cjances at trying to open it ans whoever does supposedly can keep what's inside! I doublt if someone found a wealth of historical info, old money, or whatever that promise would all chnage.....still, that's what they say. Of course it hasn't been opened since the turn of the century or earlier, but if anything IS inside I think it would be amazingly intresting no matter how "mundane". And, yes, I am sure they could "bust" it open, but the point of it still being there after all these years is it's intricate beauty - no one in their right mind would damage it, or if they did, I would call it a real crime, wether you "owned" the place or not.

I think its actually interesting when they leave stuff behind so you see what kind of activities went on.

Morgue

Me

If anything was left behind in that room (which is doubtful) then its probaby destroyed already by vandalists

Is it me or does it look like those trays to hold the bodies in the morgue missing, What a shame. It looks digusting. Its sick how people can distroy property when most just want to learn about how these poor pacients lived and what life was like in one of these institutions.

If you have ever really been ther you would not think the place so cool it is scary as all hell. My first visit was a snowy cold dark night and i wouldn't let go of my friends hand and oddly enough my car spun out on the highway on my way home. Stay away from plymouth county hospital it is VERY HAUNTED bad things happen to people the go there.

I live in danvers and the fact that their tearing the building down is a disgrace. I hope whoever lives in those condos will be haunted forever.
