looks like a 'possum.

Beautiful shots of a Kirkbride. There was one in Pontiac, MI, near where I grew up. They tore most of it down years ago. Regret to think what was lost. The building loomed over the city and I still miss seeing it when I get a chance to pass that way.

I agree with Pepper Q - this pic reminds me of a railway station.

The wooden electroshock chairs do exist at pennhurst. I got pics

Mr X , I am also a tradesman..... In this area. I can't even fathom the images, surroundings and situations you must of had been forced to tolerate and deal with mentally in this god forsaken place. I have been to pennhurst after it closed. This place makes your guts churn when it's unoccupied. Nothing good happened here.

The news reporter was Bill Baldini.

What kind of camera took that picture? it's breathtaking.

Not that I want to burst your bubble, but when living beings die, they begin to lose moisture and rot. At some point during the process, the skin and tissues recede, which is why people used to believe that hair and nails and teeth grew after death, because they actually just became more visible.

Fantastic pictures. I've seen Ladd School, but only in the dark. it was refreshing to see it from someone else's point of view. it's too bad you couldn't have caught other buildings on film like gym which was probably the creepiest building before they tore it down. Very nice work.

How long ago were these pictures taken? They are very good but these buildings look like they are in much better condition than when I was there 2 years ago. When I went in the fogarty building it looked and felt like it would fall down on our heads any minute.

the autoposy room is down the hall to the right

i am waiting for a ghost to come up the stairs!

i am waiting for something to pop out of that door or a face to appear in one of the windows. the exit sign seems like its the ghosts telling us to leave! scarrry!!!

very creepy looking

i've been there and it's kinda freaky if your drunk.
