Hmm.. Light going into shadow... I dunno if I would want to go in there. ;)

Great shot.
Boy, now that's sumpin'! I like the crinkled paint flaking off the walls, and the slash across the door gives it a great melodramatic touch!
That slash across the door did it for me too, Lynnie!
Awesome shot, it's creepy
that is the perfect picture. it is what every nut house in my imagination looks like, except through your artistic eye & lens
This gives my over active imagination too much room to run.
now all you need is a hand pulling the door inward, or inviting you inside!
I looked at it and I could smell it.
As to Lynne's comment, I think the term 'melodramatic' is hardly appropriate in describing the likes of the insane serial killers that likely occupied some of these rooms.
What makes you think they were serial killers? Just because someone's in an institution they must be a serial killer???
i think lynne was trying to emphasise the impact of the shot without heading down the insane serial killer/creepy ghost/lost soul/slasher movie cliche...i'm sorry, <i>route</i>.

just my opinion

*crosses fingers and hopes html tags work otherwise this will look stupid*
bugger.
Dang, surly girl, do you know me or what? :-)
iS THIS SOMEONE'S ROOM?
I can almost swear I see a pair of eyes in that room! Look closely at the door!
I see those eyes too.
Agh! Thanks, guys, now * I * see the eyes too!
Gonna have spooky dreams tonite!
(spooky music) wooooo weeeeeee woooooo
One female patient saved her feces and urine in a bowl for a week and when it was time for meds dumped it on the head of a nurse who made "Nurse Ratchet" look like Mother Theresa. A patient who witnessed this and laughed was put in seclusion and we can only guess what happened to the perpretrator.
i see eyes peeking through that mesh in the door!!!!:0
What were the horrors that once occured behind this door with the grates on the window?

Signed: An American Soldier in Germany.
Amazing. I can't get this one out of my head.
It is the bald, pointer nose creature whose long blackened fingernails that scrape the walls and licks it sharp teeth on the otherside of the door awaiting your arrival...... I love writing!
Indeed, that is sinister...
That door has "lead poisoning" written all over it methinks.
Sheesh o.O for some reason this makes me want to travel to america and go inside that room. i bet nobody ever goes in there its probably left how it used to be. o.O
They put me in seclusion for 2 months after I pulled a sadistic nurses long black hair.
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.
wow that is amazinggg, woooowww
You go first...
