The oldest parts of the hospital date back to the erly 1800's alot of the electrical fixtures were added in as "after thoughts" when electricity was discovered and comercialised.

Besides, the really sick/dangerous patients wern't kept on the main floors. They were kept in the tunnels and basement security areas.

Hey twug, my grandmother was a nurse there (FSH) for 30 odd years.

She had plenty of stories to tell. Lots of wierd stuff. From the mid 50's to the early 70's some REALLY twisted people were kept there.

Later in the late 70's all the dangerous patients were transfered to Taunton State Hospital. Then in the early 80's when I worked there, it was all mentally handicapped patients (Downs Syndrome).

Ok motts, now you're on my old stopming ground. I grew up in Foxboro, worked in the kitchen there when I was in High School. I was the guy who drove the electric cart through the tunnel from the main buildings kitchen to the now recently demolished "Dexter Building". As tina stated above there were some freaky experiences I had while working there.

I'm curious, did you experience anything during your visits?

Looks like somthing you'd see in a Hellraiser movie! Fantastic shot Motts!!

Nice touch with the definition Motts! :)

Awsome pic....

Sorry "MEE". What looks like somthing comming out of the top of the reducer is actually some white spraypaint on the wall behind it, lining out someones "tag".

I hope you were wearing a mask while you were in there! Great shot!

I'm pretty good with imaging and have even had my skills used by paranormal research group...I don't see anything either...
