@Sketch - electric fences work through rain, ask any farmer. Thing is if there's a power failure - or if someone sabotages the system - there goes your deterrent. "Slashwire" doesn't need a power supply and is pretty hard to sabotage without face protection, heavy gloves, and a heavy-duty cutter.

@silkster40z - Yeah they are. They also could, literally, way a ton. Good luck walking off with one on your back.

@kitty - lol, I took culinary arts and know what you're talking about, I feel so smart!

They didn't clean out the freezers, didn't shut off the power, and didn't take the doors off the freezer so someone doesn't get trapped inside by accident. Fail, fail, FAIL!

Makes it hit home that it was in fact a prison, and people were told "here you, take these and put them on. FASTER!"

@Captain Vicrotia - normally the urbex code is "take nothing but photographs unless it's in a trashbin or you know for certain the place will be demolished soon".

Joseph - after your "two eyes in the door comment", the picture before this I was looking to see if the eyes were in the open doorway and now I'm looking for a creepy shadow on the hallway floor.

Yeah looks like another place that didn't get utilities turned off.

The lighting is convenient for urbexing, but it also means wires with decaying/bad insulation still have power, anything left on could still be running, if you accidentally (or stupidly on purpose) flip a switch or push a button it could start up machinery.

If the last one happens it could quickly lead to "forget about being caught, run for your LIFE!".

Probably an elevated, movable stage that was basically a floor on stilts. You see them a bunch in old schools.

Crazy. Blows your mind to think about how technology has changed EVERYTHING. An elevated train line just for one building and for one cargo...imagine the expense and effort.
