The blue is a nice contrast but compliments the green too...and there's that beautiful fireplace again!

It's an interesting shade of green...a kind of bright mint green almost...quite unlike the drab greens found in military & government buildings.

Now THIS room looks like something out of Lovecraft...(shudder!)

I was thinking the same thing - the brickwork & scrolling on the mantel makes it look like it belongs in someone's living room...

This was a great set - the compostion, colors and textures were all fascinating. You have a great eye for composition.

Bars on the windows and coffins in the basement...reminds me of Hotel California; you can check out any time you like but YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE!

Wow, that fire escape looks a bit precarious. o_O

Agreed. A number of the Pilgrim exterior shots look like fake miniatures instead of the real thing, which is even weirder.

Around 30 seconds, I think.

Pennhurst was a more or less "local" state school for young people in PA, I would guess over a thousand patients lived there at any one time.. a lot less than 15,000. More patients = more deaths.

Pennhurst had a two drawer morgue by the way, the top door was used to access the refrigeration equipment, much like this freezer.

Yes, it looks like it should be several feet deep - amazing!

Wow! Maria you have some good stories to share..Wont you share more:-)

i remmeber this when my mom took me there....she used to work at pennhurst and she said this balcony is where a pateint jumped offf the balcony and killed herself while trying to escape.

i go to pennhurst all the time...veyr interesting...yet sad. me and my friends almost got caught by the cops back there but we hid in on of the buildings jus tin time. jus tmake sure your careful! cus there is a navy base back there and they will shoot on guard..there are even signs.

How long was the shutter speed on this shot?
