I don't get why these people were treated so bad. I am doing a research paper and your site is helping me and aweful lot. I am doing it on how mentally ill people need to be treated better. I read somewhere that in Europe, and man with down syndrome was chained to a metal crib for eleven years (since he was ten). This picture reminded me of that. It's horrible really.
Is it still standong? I want to go see it so badly, but i am quite far away sonce im in oklahoma, but is there a chance i can go wander around the building?
I live in Belleville and half the building is abandoned because of a lack of funding (it was between two centers, and soho lost out). One of the smaller buildings still standing is used for children services with a small playground. There used to be other buildings that were abandoned with tunnels linking all of the buildings. The tunnels were almost always flooded. They were pretty run down until they were knocked down.
Police frequently patrolled the area looking for people who might be sneaking in -- they never caught us.
Now they're condos.
The smaller buildings had several functions throughout the years. It was a TB quarantine, a children's hospital, and other medical facilities.
me and 3 of my friends went there in january, first of all we got a 4th member which was a dog then as we finally made a way in we were chased by cops so we ducked in a small house where we immediately heard banging but noone was there i took a picture then and it was clear after i uploaded it, it was covered in a strange fog that appears to be a dog and a evil face then when we finally made it to the car the dog disappeared.... has anyone else had a similar encounter????? email me at tommysmommy5605@yahoo.com
i was there last night...really creepy...i was too scared to go inside tho..its strange tho because people keep talking about almost getting caught by security..but there was absolutly no security when i went..maybe bc it was 3 in the morning when we got there.
i have a question tho..has anything...supernatural..ever happened to anyone while they were visiting here..bc idk if it was our mind playing tricks on us but we deffinatly kept seeing faces in the windows and stuff...
i was able to see an ampitheater similar to this one in a facility near my home. It is in a physicians hospital that is fully functioning although the ampitheater is curruntly locked up and quite rundown.
i live across from bennett and its so much fun to go there all the time even though it is tresspassing its fun with friends. i actaully wrote a made up story about it.well for english
