SOAP DISPENSER!! *Tah-daaaahhhhh*

*Slinks off-stage to a hail of rotten tomotoes*

Yup---see my comment on the pervious pic...

This is similar to the one I worked on!]

*Shudders* I used to HATE being on the Mangler...I would rather pull the dirty linen as it came in than work this machine. :(

Two Words:

THE MANGLER...

There I go again! I am reading WAY too much Stephen King...

I used to work at a laundry (we used to do linen and such for businesses as well as hotel laundry and some nursing home laundry) and I used to work on a machine similar to this. Always scared the crapola outta me. I was afraid the dang thing would eat me alive! I am really small (barely 5 foot tall) so this machine was huge and intimidating for me.

Great shot Motts!

Those tiles look like a snakeskin...crreeeeeppppppy. :D

I love the slant to the ceiing.

Whoa...red mosquito...red blood...

REDRUM...

Ooops...sorry...just finished reading The Shining by Stephen King...

That is one CREEEEEEPY door.

Stunning. Absolutely stunning.

This is by far one of my FAVES! I would love to use this one as my desktop wallpaper! :D

Love ya Motts!

Wow. The decay is pretty advanced. Fascinating given the fact this place closed in the 90s & these photos were taken in 2005.

Another amazing shot.

Are those Mr. Mott's footie prints in the snow? This is the same room in another gallery, different angle. But it's the same bed, same sheets, same radiator. BUT there was a table next to the bed, I had that photo as my desktop also, and that image is burned into my memory. (like most of Motts shots). "Motts Shots" that would be a good name for a book. Which reminds me, I recently purchased a book called simply "Asylum" and there were several photographs that I could have sworn I saw here so I think Mr. Motts should investigate to make sure his work isn't being pilfered. They didn't give any credit to the photo but it was the one taken through a round window on a door that was all crinkled with paint, I know I saw that here.

I love this one.

I have done serious research on human burials & have discovered that weather, soil and YES decomposed bodies do release gases. However ! It's been recorded that mass graves sites from the Holacust were filled in with HUNDREDS of victims. The ground has been known to expand ALSO seen with the naked eye to be actually moving in spots. This is mainly because when they we're shot once, they fell unconscious not always completely dead. As they lined up the next victims on top of the last ones repeatedly covering any that were still alive. Bodies piled in all different direction created air pockets, those that came to could have survived briefly once covered with soil thus making the surface move. Could you imagine being one of those people?

Wallpaper please!

dme's comments are a real eye opener and absolutely correct. This gallery was posted over 5 years ago. I hope future visitors to this page stop & realize that these facilities were not state sanctioned torture chambers staffed by sadistic monsters. These were ordinary health care providers who tried to make a difference doing a job 99% of the population could not do.
