I didn't know the Aflac duck knew how to hold a can of Krylon.

Calling someone a "retard" is reserved for those with such a limited vocabulary that they cannot think of something more creative. However, it's even more pathetic when they can't even spell the word right. "Retart"? What is that? Like a SweeTart with twice the sour?

Wonderful exposure!

Dig it! Great shot!

Excellent!

LOVES!

I think it means like bathroom..Or something of the sort..
Awesome pics Motts
I'm addicted to this site and your pictures always seem to relax me.
I've always been into photography and looking at your art has influenced me to start taking more pictures and hopefully get into urban exploration :]

Read a couple of these posts, would like to clarify a couple things.
-Sports equipment and training gear was used by the residents who were the most hadicapped. Fear's crew wanted no chance of some resident being stronger than them. If a patients with good cognitive skills were kept drugged. Goons made the most use of the equipment and rest was for show.

-Fear braggeg about his electro-shock machine design, he claimed it was his design. It was based on an electric chair for executions. The room it was kept in was specially wired for the extra amperage. The room with the heavy guage wiring was a torture room.(and ummm......electric chairs are wooden, it is the metal straps that conduct the electricity) . I was electrocuted on a bed, but I would not rule out the use of a chair.

-Most of the regular staff I met at the time were nice caring people, but Dr. Fear did live up to his name, and kept people in fear so they would not talk.

-An amazing number of residents were very normal and forced to medicate to make the appearance of being mentally handicap.

- Alot of the handicapped people I met were very nice, but understandably confused about what they were seeing and hearing

At that point, I think, Byberry was so covered in graffiti that I doubt one less tag would have changed much.

Nice shot! Those old x-ray machines might still have the tubes inside of them! The only danger visiting this room would be if you opened the equipment up and tried to remove the glass tube...if the tubes ever break you could be exposed to high levels of radiation...even if the equipment is off and old like this!!

BE CAREFUL~!

I would have opened that sucker right up.

Still more effective than the Hawaii Chair.

I get blood drawn in chairs that look like that all the time.

I wasn't saying that none of that stuff happened at Pennhurst because I do know for a fact that all of the horrible stuff happened there. I'm simply saying that today, that stuff no longer happens. A lot has changed in the past 10 years especially. You aren't even allowed to brush a patient's hair w/o a doctor's written consent more or less.

This is a phenomenal shot. ^.^
