Yes, contemplating the cadaverous storage space seen here has always been a past-time at the Berry.

Still, you can't help but think of the hundreds of autopsies that were watched from these very bleachers by students and surgeons during Byberry's history. When I sit here with friends tokin' up, I envision the body on the table that used to stand just scant yards away...

Yeah, up until last year there were library-type angled ladders that ran along the rails you can see at the top of the pic. I believe those rails are the only copper items left here since the scavengers gutted the place in the 90's.

The annual summer BBQ is held on this very deck. What better a way to celebrate the freedom of the nation?!
I've had dozens of beers looking at this very building from this deck, including during the last major snowstorm.
Awesome view every time.
We had the local Philadelphia Police Helicopter drop right out of the sky level to where we were hanging out here. Needless to say we boogied on out the door but their infared followed us for an entire building before we went underground.
Fun fun drunk in the sun.

i must agree with motts on this one. i havent been to as many places as he has been but ive been to my fare share of dead buildings and such. i do belive in the paranormal but have never heard or seen anything that would lead me to belive that any of the places ive visited to be huanted... ive also been to these places during the day and at night and still nothing that couldent be explained with a little investigation

In a small building next to the adult one, I don't know what it was used for.

Well since you asked, I'll voice my thoughts on this...

These old asylums, prisons, and state schools were one of the most horrifying places where hundreds of thousands of people have lived out the ends of their lives and died. Some were sexually abused by other patients and the staff, some of those were children, locked in seclusion rooms and beaten, some even murdered by other patients... I can't think of anywhere else troubled souls would reside.

So in the countless dripping, dank, pitch black basement morgues and caged seclusion rooms of the most violent wards, I haven't seen or heard one thing that would constitute as supernatural. People can pick out all sorts of anomalies within my photos but I can attribute a reason for all of them (so far).

Am I a skeptic? Yes. Does that make me "blind" to paranormal forces? I don't see why it would, but hey, maybe so.

So to answer your question, no, I do not think these places are haunted.

I've wanted to go here for about five years now. It sucks because I was at the Rochester Baseball stadium to see the Grateful Dead in '88, and I had no idea it existed then.
I was researching abandoned shit and this was the site that was the most captivating. The pics I saw at the time also included a daring catwalk over water that looked dangerous as fuck.

Very disturbing..........where was this taken?
It is most definately beautiful. I also have a love for exploring abandoned buildings.

However, I must ask - do you feel that any of the places you visit are haunted?

It's when you change the white balance a certain amount so that light from tungsten bulbs looks less orange. The manual for your digital camera should have documentation on changing it.
