this is just like a scene in the book Project 17. such a good book. creepy. takes place in Danvers Hospital. They go in the art room, and there is a wall just like this... *shudders
The tenacity of Mother Nature will always intrigue me. Humans may delay the inevitable but, in the end, nature will reclaim what's hers. Nothing is exempt. Even the Great Pyramids of Giza will, eventually, succumb. And this process can be beautiful if allowed to progress naturally. Through the lens of Mr. Mott's camera, we get a rare glimpse of this process unmolested.
I must also say that I am so happy to find the origin of the soap dispenser joke! I've been all through this site and am finally seeing it. I thought it would make a great light!
Went to glenn dale just the other day. drove by the day before entering and scoped out the security trailer. Drove by the next day before entering and the security vehicle (tan pickup truck) was parked in the same exact place. They do have a pumpkin on the front steps of the trailer so there has to be some sort of police presence there at times! We drove down electric ave to the parking lot just down the street by the pond and gained access to the place by walking around the pond and jumping the fence. There is a window that is wide open right there that will lead you right into the morgue. I literally jumped in the window and jumped directly back out of the window. However my two friends stayed in the adult facility for a little over two hours took over 500 pictures and 2 hours of digital voice recordings We haven't gone through any of the audio yet but in one of the pictures of one of the hallways you can clearly see a woman standing there with a little girl. Would love to share this photo on the site if possible. place is absolutely active with paranormal activity.
I just went this past Saturday (the 15th). The place is awful shape, worse than ever. There are still a few decent shots to be had but almost nothing is left from even when Motts took these shots. It's a shame, really.
Just looking again at the pics of this hospital. I wanted to add my 2 cents to the discussion about placing children in institutions. In the 50's and 60's this was the NORM. If your child had a problem that is what the Dr told parents to do. Most parents signed over custody of the child to the county/state. It was not thought of as bad, it was just the way things were done then.
When I was in nursing school, I happened to be doing my maternity rotation when an infant with the brain outside of the skull was born. The baby had no normal reflexes and the baby Dr said it was nonviable. There was a seperate nursery where the infant was placed. The infant was NOT fed or given an IV. If I remember correctly it only lived a couple of days. The year 1970 It still haunts me with the question: Could anything have been done for that child. I have often thought of this situation. It still has the power to upset me. I wish the resources that are available now were available then.
