I have a photo with a ghostly image on it. But I think one of the strangest things that have happened to me was last Wednesday. I was on the 3rd floor in the middle of the main entrance and took a step through the door way and my right foot started to go through the floor, yes I was going to go through the floor, but something pushed up on my foot hard enough to push me back hard enough that I had to take a step back so I did not fall over.
When I first entered this building I witnessed with my own eyes doors open and slam shut. These were doors where the rooms had no windows.
I have talked to other fire fighters that once had to rescue some kids from the 3rd floor because all the doors closed and the kids could not get out or off the 3rd floor.
This was back in the late 90's like 98-99.

Casey,Your telling me, Iv witnessed some strange things while in Dixmont during the past 2 weeks.

It is where a fire hose was connected and stored, each floor and arch way above and below were set up the same way.

Some of the stairwells can and seem to be very creepy. There are some I will not use. In this building.

The fire that had caused this damage was on the rd and forth floor, it all caved in.
The fire happened in the mid 90's

Most of the doors on the patchiest rooms were or are wood. On some of the floors all the doors are missing and on others they are open.

The bridge in the photo is I 79.

Another beautiful hall shot.

Very well said.
The stone work on the windows is unbelievable.

The pain these scratches represent are sad.

Yes, Lynn you are correct.

If this photo was taken on the floor and where I think there are they are for the fire sprinkler system.

Yes, time, mother nature, and fire have done a number on the back side of the main entrance. Very sad.

Yes, Dixmont dose have a lot of windows, and allows a vast amount of sunlight in during the day.
No doubt it was sadly dark for many.

The last evidence that there was once life in this building now waiting to R.I.P.
