Autopsy Room

Nice photo, it captures the essence.

that's on my screensaver. I love it

Makes a hell of a kitchen

Morgues...and autopsy rooms..
Next time i go (within the next 2 months) I have to find how to get to this room.
Arent there like 20 buildings still abandoned..

Thats very disurbing..yet I cant w8 2 go n see it ...

your images are incredibly compelling and powerful. thank you.

creepy. eerie. i love it. nice pics man, wonderful job

was just there last night autopsy and morgue room was insane in the dark but had a run in with some other people and someone shooting windows out which wasn't cool tread carefully

This a Wicked picture...gives me the Chills

I believe I understand it. It used to be a dissectionbench in a morgue or something... Kinda freaky.

So like I was at Pilgrim [[briefly]] yesterday. Didn't go in this building or anything.. but it pisses me off that they want to destroy such a beautiful work of art, and security is crawling over by the Devil's Arches. >_<

This photo is fantastic. I love the lighting.

I like this photo.

my mom is an ex employee of pigrim state she worked there for almost 15 years.She used to pick up the dead bodies from all over the grounds then bring them to this room.Then they would go in the refrigerator, which is right behind that metal bed in the pic.From there the mortician would put them on that table, drain there blood out of there bodies, pull out all experimental parts including brains and organs (which from there my mother took the brains to the world trade center, she did a lot of the driving for patients and other things she was friends with the mortician whose name was fred), they took a lot of the bodies over to the cemetary that was also on the grounds called the cemetary of the good samaritan.She told me it was really inhumane how they would bury these bodies sometimes, being alot of the time patients had no one who cared for them no family or anything, anyway they would bury them in heavy corrugated cardboard boxes and move them by forklift through the center to the cemetary.And sometimes the boxes got damp from the moisture in the top shelf of the store house (she doesnt remember the number of the building but it was located by work control which she thinks was building 36) and sometimes the bodies would fall through the box and between the forks of the forklift.She said this was rare but it happened sometimes.Anyone who reads this who is also an ex employee who knows what she is talking about is gonna know she was either a groundskeeper or garage help.But she said it was a screwed up place it was a disgusting place and a horrible place to work or have to call home.I live 20 mins away from all these buildings so she takes me on tours sometimes, shes got a lot of experience and she was like the only she there so any other ex employee...your probaly right about who your thinking this woman is.she worked ther 1976 to 1989.good day guys.

omg.. hha imagine going there and being stupid open one of them like in horror movies.. and all of a sudden u see a body they forgot about.. =/

I would absolutely love to go see this in person. I drove past last October, I was in the area for a Paranormal State Field Trip. Anyway, I don't feel like being arrested or fined, is there any legal way to take a tour of the area?

I work at Pilgrim and tours are not allowed just as you would not ask to tour any other operating hospital unless you planned on being a patient. If the campus was closed then I could understand giving tours. But giving tours while populated is degrading to the patients. They are here to be cared for and hopefully get better and are not a tourist attraction.

these storys are scary im going this saurday and im really scared i went yesterday and almost pooped my self cause we heard all spookey sounds......i need to know what to bring and whats there to except....you can message me on facebook type in my name Nicolas Dainotto im from ny long island deer park..thanks.

How profoundly sad that someone was so alone that his/her body was forgotton in a morgue. Forgotten in life and in death. My Grandmother suffered from dimentia and died in a nursing home, howling. I was there, and I will never forget that sound, the look on her face, the way she looked when life finally, mercifully left her, or the thought that went through my mind as I held her hand: it's not at all like it looks in the movies.
An example of how evocative your photos are for me, Mr. Motts.

Im a high school student and i'm in the middle of doing a photography project on psychiatric asylums. This is an amazing picture, very moving and interesting. Do you know what building or floor this picture was taken on? Was it building 23?

thanks so much!

Imagine if this was a animated wallpaper and something/one walked around in the background .....too sweets . I want

My mother was institutionalized in PSH in 1961 when I was 8 years old. My father would take me in the car with him to visit her on the weekends, but leave me in the car. Just the sight of this place have me the chills and I had nightmares about it for the longest time. She was released and came home later that year, with the advances of psychiatric medications got to the point where she never had to be returned to this place, thank God. My mother died in 1983, but was never really a whole person. Only in death was she finally released of the grips of her mental illness. Readers, pray for those who are ill and pray for their families. Those who are sick arte unaware of what is going on really, it is their families who really suffer.
