	arose_is4ever Did anyone notice that the outline of a person on the ceiling?

Location: Worcester State Hospital  Gallery: Silent Creatures

	arose_is4ever The brick design kind of reminds me of a Native American totem pole with the geometric patterns.

	arose_is4ever Kind of a parallel to the patients here. I picture them like this bird, trapped here, then slowly dying an agonizing death. The only difference is that the patients were dying inside as well as out. Very moving

	arose_is4ever I didn't know wood could rot in that pattern.

	arose_is4ever Corny fake marble to go with the 1970's porno hot tub

Location: The Pines Hotel  Gallery: Trip with Drie

	arose_is4ever I wonder how many babies were conceived in this hot tub

	arose_is4ever Took my breath away, awe inspiring shot, a bit of tranquility to calm a formerly chaotic environment

	arose_is4ever The pattern of the paint on the wall reminds me of the National Geographic pictures of deserts that haven't seen rain in years. Very interesting texture

	arose_is4ever The blue in this picture really catches my eyes. My daughter has the exact same shade of blue in her eyes

	arose_is4ever I think Uncle Fester cut his mouth performing his lightbulb trick

	arose_is4ever Ah Silva, Oregon Trail, I lived for those days. I graduated 5 years ago, and still remember the anticipation and excitement of Oregon Trail day in school

	arose_is4ever Are you going to any more places in southwest PA? I live 30 miles from Pittsburgh and could do some research for you as to some more places in that area. I know one right off the top of my head: Livermore, a famous local legend. Get back to me if you want. My email is arose_is4ever@hotmail.com

	arose_is4ever If there were any really lonely people that died in the hospital here, they sure weren't lonely in death. Too little too late. It's sad, some people don't matter until they die.

	arose_is4ever When I said "hot tub", I didn't mean it that way

Location: Foxboro State Hospital  Gallery: Endless Halls

	arose_is4ever I hear you there star. Never got the pleasure of a sitz bath, just got that horrible aerosol spray stuff that burned like no other when it hit stitches

Location: Foxboro State Hospital  Gallery: Transitions

	arose_is4ever I see the skull and I also see an impression on the far left wall of a human body, head, legs, arms, the whole thing

	arose_is4ever The paint chip pattern on the right looks like a woman with a dark spaghetti strap dress waving

	arose_is4ever I just got hooked on this site a few weeks ago, and have noticed a comment theme when i comes to bathrooms, so I am going to jump on the bandwagon: where are the soap dispensers?

Location: Foxboro State Hospital  Gallery: Transitions

	arose_is4ever If I'm seeing things correctly, is that an old water fountain on the right and a radiator on the left? Great pic, I remember being a little kid and driving past this place. Even then, I got chills, woke me from a dead sleep.

Location: Foxboro State Hospital  Gallery: Transitions

	arose_is4ever I looked at the picture and thought over the last child who could have played with this doll. What was this place like for them: a safe haven or a prison?

	arose_is4ever You would think the slash marks would be inside the door, from a tortured soul trying desparately to get out. It's strange that they're on the outside.

	arose_is4ever It's a mini straight jacket. Kind of makes me wonder how supportive it is compared to the bras today
