	addy you can't see through these windows... that's rather depressing. :(

	addy am i the only one who thinks having a mirror in a padded room might be a slightly stupid idea? considering mirrors are made out of GLASS (among other things...) *jump* CRASH! *slice slice slice*

	addy the face reminds me of the thing on the front of the album "lies for the liars" by the used.

	addy if you guys didn't notice, the area the crib is in is indented in the exact size of the crib's head board. it was probably designed so if the baby was slamming around in the crib, it wouldn't knock the entire crib over and hurt itself. if a baby is having a seizure, the last place you want it is on a cold, hard, tile floor.

	addy i adore this ward. it just makes you think.

	addy my grandma has one of these in her living room (yes, my grandma is strange). they were dentist chairs. they aren't very comfortable...

	addy odd... sisters and brothers, almost like a convent or church of sorts. and the phrase painted on the wall in the first shot, "know thyself", sounds like a quote from the bible.

	addy again, the empty space is creeping me out.

Location: Crypt of Barons  Gallery: Laid to Rest

	addy its not the fact that it's a crypt that scares me. it's the fact that there's an empty slot, waiting for the next person to die...

	addy that is so cool! imagine being the person to get that one. it would be like having the super mega jumbo pack of crayons in kindergarden. you would totally be the cool guy.

	addy the wash cloth on the floor... just to try and add some bit of normalcy to the situation...

Location: Verden Psychiatric Hospital  Gallery: Dark Corners

	addy the pillow on the side of it... what was that there for?

Location: Verden Psychiatric Hospital  Gallery: Dark Corners

	addy these doors actually have knobs on them...

Location: Verden Psychiatric Hospital  Gallery: Dark Corners

	addy i wonder if this was actually used... how horrible that would be for the people in the rooms looking out into the hallway. just seeing people having fun, and never getting to talk to them...

Location: Verden Psychiatric Hospital  Gallery: Dark Corners

addy i wonder who it was... theres a bit of white over her head, but i cant tell if thats just paint peeling... who was she? the possibilities are endless... was it someone's girl back home? their little sister? their mother in her glory days? a favorite nurse? or was she nameless? cut out from a magazine... or maybe, if she was a nurse, from a brochure for the institution. that would be so sad, someone looking at the wall, waiting for that perfect scene to actually happen...

	addy oh my gosh... think about being put in one of those as an adult... it would be like being transported back to infancy... except all the stuffed animals and toys and comfort objects have been taken away...

Location: Verden Psychiatric Hospital  Gallery: Dark Corners

	addy the rabbit has normal rabbit ears... and then it also has human like ears on the sides of its head.. and the circle around it... i wonder what was going through the mind of the person who drew this...

Location: Verden Psychiatric Hospital  Gallery: Uncovering the Past

	addy the drawing underneath looks like an arm... it sort of reminds me of a drawing a saw of a police officer by a formerly imprisoned person... could it perhaps be a drawing of one of the guards? it doesn't look much like a bird to me... maybe it was a reference to some slang word, whose meaning has been long forgotten?

Location: Verden Psychiatric Hospital  Gallery: Uncovering the Past

	addy were the doors metal? it looks kind of like wood to me, which would defeat the purpose of the bars...

Location: Verden Psychiatric Hospital  Gallery: Uncovering the Past

	addy were all the doors in that section reinforced like that? or were the bars put there by a nurse, who was trying to protect the person inside the room? or the people outside of it...
