Isnt this Manteno's Verteran's Home now ??

I was actually born here in 1963, and am currently doing substantial research about WSH, as I was there for nearly 4 years. Basically, I "grew up" there.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I am particularly interested in the "research" they were doing there, and if there is any evidence any was conducted on babies born there.

this is sooo pretty
i love old places like this :)

How do you get into those places? *_*

cool stuff but i wonder how scary it is at night......

i grew up maybe two blocks from this place and i used to hang out in and around it i know all the little hallways and rooms but let me tell u some creepy stuff used to go on

I am going to college right around the sterling, and the back building is torn down, partially at least, but I have heard that demolition became too expensive, and was stopped. Most of the building still stands. The outside looks almost exactly the same as the pictures. Most buildings in the town of Wilkes-Barre are abandoned.

The sinks with the double faucet heads are very similar to the sinks in my dormitory.

It looks like a scene from The 8th Plague...this picture is awesome!!!!!!!

I grew up on the other side of the mountain that the tunnels are located on. I spent many days exploring the tunnels and separate buildings. I vividly remember walking along the top of the tunnels and also being inside of them and feeling the cool breeze that would come through the small openings along the way. I also remember doing a lot of partying up there as well! As much time as I spent there, I was never quit comfortable. I always felt like I was being watched and I don't mean by animals! We used to find ammuniton shells around in the 80's, but the last time I was up there, not much was left.

I went for my very first time with my friends and we went into a room that looked like it was for kids my friends are all into ghosts and i didnt belive at all untill that night as we were leaving the place my friend and i where in the back we both turned around amd saw a little girl standing in a door way i ran like hell and ill never go back again and yes now i belive

It does kind of look disconnected from everything. It gives me a feeling of despair.

It's just looks taken from magic dream...

Just amazing!
