The contrast of the collapsed roof and rainbow colored walls is striking, like something out of a demented child's mind.. Like death and decay go along side dolls and stuffed teddy bears naturally.. Like looking into the child's mind to see an enchanted forest full of unicorns one minute, and shredded bodies and the souls of the damned the next..

Ooooohhhhh, my.... I love this one!

It's almost like the bright, safe colors of the two doors bring peace... until you see the dark, looming gallows of hell, ready to reach out for you!

My god. . .
your photography skillz are truly impressive. Truly magical.

You wouldn't happen to know if this asylum is still around, would you? I go to school near Marshfield, and was planning on stopping by here sometime after I heard about it not long ago. Thing is, I heard it was being renovated or torn down or something. You wouldn't happen to know by any chance?

Thanks! The hospital is still standing but I'd rather not say it's name or where it is.

I have a question- are the ceiling beams usually thick wood or iron eye beams in those old buildings? Also, are the floors in the hallways hardwood under the tiles, or subflooring? I would assume hardwood since in the old days they did not half-ass things like now. :)

Dang. I don't think you could get me to go to the second story of that building if I knew the floors were unstable. I'm sure no one would enjoy going through the floor.

The windows are all intact and the floors are caving in, very strange. The walls seem to have moss too

I'm sure by now the floor has fallen in, so this picture can never be duplicated again. Thanks for snapping it, Motts!

Thanks Motts for your excellent eye in lining up the shot so it does look like a reflection on the floor of the window in front. Until I read your caption, I didn't realize that part of the floor was gone and it was the top of the window on the floor below.
