Radical Ed Umm, it's well-lit and has plenty of open doors and windows, is surrounded by large open fields, and sometimes has deer eating grass just outside. What's so scary about it? I've been through this hall hundreds of times.

	Radical Ed Climbing through the window MJ? That's FUCKED. I walk right in through one of the multitudes of open DOORS and take a hallway to the morgue.

	Radical Ed The coolest thing left in this room is the drain in the center of the floor. Over the last sixty or so years of it's existence, how many GALLONS of blood has washed down through this little portal?

	Radical Ed This hallway leads to one of the courtyards where many of Byberry's famous BBQ's are held. There are grills scattered throughout. I've bonked my head of this piece of ceiling numerous times walking through here. It showers wonderfully itchy rust all over when disturbed. I'm usually watching the ground where I walk and have had many head-bonking experiences in these hallowed halls.

	Radical Ed This pic, plus many, many more here, ARE of the buildings built in the first twenty years of the 20th century.

	Radical Ed Now that's just ridiculous. How do you think people get to Byberry anyway? They drive there. There's more kids at Byberry because it's in a city of over 5 million people. That might have something to do with it. The law of averages strikes again.

	Radical Ed The chapel contains the headless "Mary" statue (it's probably Saint Dymphna) and some hymnal books. I believe you may have even mentioned being there in the recent past.

	Radical Ed It's been empty for over ten years guys.

	Radical Ed How could you see a light at night that is actually daytime sunlight filtering through a decayed roof inside a building nowhere near the road?

	Radical Ed Hey Pyro, welcome back dude.

	Radical Ed My father's a retired Philadelphia Firefighter (30 years). He was called to Byberry literally dozens of times to put out fires there. Kids are constantly setting fires there almost weekly. Luckily, there's nothing left to burn and the buildings are mostly steel and concrete. There's scars from fire on every floor of just about every building.

	Radical Ed The bottles are all a dark brown, mostly glass, with white plastic lids. There's also a plethora of brown plastic bottles but the majority are all glass. There's still quite a few unbroken bottles left. They're rather easy to procure.

	Radical Ed Hahaha, I know what you're talking about. The hallways were never attached. If you notice, the hallways turn into the ground floors of the buildings. The "missing section" is just where one building ends and another begins. They're seperated by roads and driveways. The "ends" of the hallways used to be open and you could walk out one and into the other.

	Radical Ed Whenever I go into the "turn-of-the-century" buildings in Byberry during the summer, I get mildly ill for a couple of days. Usually it's a sore throat, labored breathing, and the sniffles. It gets REALLY bad if I you stir up the debris or brush against the pinkish veiny mold that grows out of the plaster lathe.

	Radical Ed Cut out? Where?

	Radical Ed Did you see the toilet / sink room in old maintenance? There's dozens of both just lying about scattered.

	Radical Ed The Chapel's fine. No danger there at all.

	Radical Ed Who climbs in anywhere? With dozens of open doors, I just walk right in.

	Radical Ed It's in N-10, the rear-most building on the property. Look above for a post I made months ago on the subject.
