It's almost as if the chair is watching itself and its surroundings age, so slowly, yet steadily. Like it wants to escape so bad, but it cannot. Maybe that's how the patients felt...

This photo just sorta hit me, and you can just imagine an exhaughsted hospital worker stuffing something in those shelves, or maybe another sneaking something. You can see the age, and decay, but they still stand. amazing really...

I wonder if they did any sedation for their patients...and how good the dentists were. Why does bulky machinery always instill fear?

This shot scared me to death...I thought it was a human skull *shudder*

I can't remember the dude in Toy Story II but I 'think' it was buddy or something like that. eh I can't remember, been months since my last babysitting job =)

Wow, and that looks like new...

This reminds of my lunch times spent in detention...*coughs* I mean...watching my friends in detention, as the rest of us laughed in the bright sunshine.....

Here I am a newcomer, but I was looking for pictures to fool around with with my Trial edition of Photoshop, and I encountered your site. Your photos are AMAZING, and really capture the moods in the scenery. This shot is awesome, mainly because of the lighting and shadows amongst the irony of having stairs where there are so many wheelchairs. (Wonder if that was ever blocked off to the children or something such a long itme ago.)

im totally obsessed with this picture. the colours are simply amazing!

yo i dont think this girl isnt scared she is scared out of her mind

I was just in here yesterday and when i was going to the basement there was a wall that said run!!!!

Motts,
Were u scared when you went into the hospital? and were you alone?

I keep looking for the ghost to pop out of the corner.

Wow, a good friend turned me on to your site.. I am enthralled! Will be showing my gothy daughter the site as well and keep checking back in case you DO get a book of photos published.. would love a couple copies.

silkster, i really dont know. i do know that my friends grandfather was on the staff at pennhurst, and that was HIS explanation for it. but who knows? maybe the old fart was wrong!

There is asbestos, broken glass, live wires, and other stuff like twisted, sharp metal fragments, ect.
