My great-grandmother (originally from Ireland) was am inmate here from 1903 until 1912. She never made it out- died of tuberculosis at age 53. She was committed by her husband right after she had his 6th child at age 44. She was apparently violent and dangerous, heard voices, and had delusions (equivalent of today's paranoid schizophrenia).
I wonder where they buried her? Does anyone know if they have a patient graveyard there?

Whats that black stuff on it, and why isn't the towel covered in dust

So, if the patient is sick already, why must it be proven, isnt it enough that their coughing up blood. Is that what used to happen when people had the common cold in the early 1900's? Probably

has anyone else noticed that the chairs are missing the back legs?!?

Long Island, thats really funny, we kinda did the same thing, but we would tie them to bricks and sink them in the harbor or rip of their limbs, chew the ends and leave them around the house for our mom to find. she was under the impression that the house was haunted for like, 10 years. Im not saying how old I was when I did this though

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LET ME OUT

i drew something like that on my window.
still waiting for someone to let me out though...

Probably a petefial dressed as a cop waiting for some teen to come in and vandalize so they can "arrest them" and take them in the basement...
or a patient...

Your absolutely right Lurch, after Motts pictures, everthing else is very boring.

hI, THESE PICS ARE GREAT!Do you mind me using them? Anyone up for trying to save this buildings? There is a few of us at it check out www.northwaleshospital.co.uk xx

wow, my elementary school had those lights in all the classrooms in the early 60s.

Motts wants inside there.

I for one would love to get married in a abandoned Castle.

Been to Glendale a couple of times luckly never got cought by the "rent a cops" really cool place to go. When i went i heard the usally screaming coming from who knows where , but one thing that really kinda creeped me out was we where leaving the adult building it was me and about 3 other people we where walking in a line going through the hall ways i was the last one in the line and i sware to god i felt someone or somthing put there hand on the back of my head i just took a deep breath and pretended that it didnt happened and left

I just visited this place. There are cops who patrol it but you can walk around outside of it fairly easily. This place is beyond creepy though. Has anyone seen the wild dogs that live there?

hahahah Tommeh

I'm only 13. I wonder if there are younger viewers than me? I found this site today after viewing Celebrity Paranormal Project episode 2. The team went to a place called "Warson Asylum" which I found out was actually Norwich State Hospital.

It seems strange to me that a place like this was in use only about 25 years ago.

Hey I have to jibe with you all, this does appear to be a stellar place, I suppose that they should consider fixing it. Does anyone seem to have any sort of pictures from the interior part? You can e-mail me at escarizlissette@yahoo.com

Myriad of thanks to you all

lol, but ah... isn't it Clarice? :D

well... add another listing on my favorites drop down menu. :) your work is amazing. I am now headed to see every thing I can here.

I am totally seeing the lack of shadows under the tub. o.O holy crap. lol. Motts, have you ever ran into anything haunted or freaky in the old state hospitals?

I love this photo, the crumbling paint actually kinda looks like someone was scractching to get out.

i went inside this place too!

I would like to see a pic of me laying in that. Like I had been in it for years. Maybe be made up to look long gone. ;)
