Lonely should be the very worst that this picture conjures up. Unfortunately, that would only be the beginning of the horror that Pennhurst was. My little brother was admitted to Pennhurst in 1964. I can't even begin to tell you how awful things were -- and so I won't even try. In and of themselves, all of these pictures are snapshots of a real live nightmare; however, if you actually knew someone who resided at Pennhurst and saw all of this first-hand, then that nightmare is still alive and kicking.
