I've been to pennhurst on a couple of occasions to seek out paranormal events - they occurred. The intent is not to give myself thrills, but to get as much info as I can. The truth is is that it was a horrible place full of suffering, cruelty and pain. As one entity at the pool said during an evp session, "bad place," I believe her. Without getting this evidence, I never would have researched pennhurst any further. During another evp session in the mayflower bldg. an entity said, "get out now ... dick!" It is obvious that evil still exists there. Check out a Dr. Chakajian?

What a shame. This is a beautful place & it's just sitting rotting you would THINK the town would use it for something? Instead of just forgetting about the history and putting up trashy "space buildings" .... What a waste!

This is my favorite of this collection of images and the one that evokes the most visceral memory of being in that building.

I student taught at DeJarnette's in the early 1990s. It's eerie to see these beautiful pictures of the place, finally free of human suffering. Thanks for posting them.

Commenting on an old thread, I know; but this building is very close to a major interstate and a fairly large town. It would be extremely difficult to vandalize it without getting caught.

I am surprised the death mask is still there!

I lived in Newington, early 60's to late 60's. My sister and I were diagnosed with potential knock knees. We were referred to this building for examination and corrective shoes. We both went on to run track.

The building still stands, however it is heavily patrolled by police and almost impossible to enter. Thank you for the great pictures! They're certainly fascinating for someone local who has always wanted to see the building in person
