What kind of therapy would include that horrible colors they chose for the seclusion rooms. Was it prison or a hospital, but cruel and unusual is definately there.....

Still I wonder what was so important to need a safe. Perhaps the records of employees that went crazy from the job? Maybe they were using the patient for secret biochemical experiments? It could be that the head person was hiding money from his wife...lol

In my mind's eye, WSH too looked like a "castle" to me. As a kid, we were always taking walks on the property. There was a beautiful grove of pine trees below the Kirkbride admin building. I remember when I was younger walking under those pine trees and looking up, I could see this magnificant castle...I felt like I was in "Sherwood Forest", in a beautiful ball gown, waiting for my handsome prince in the castle...so romantic! : ) That was always my fantasy!

Danvers State is certainly my FAVORITE "castle." It looks like from something out of time, so mystical. I love the bright, red brick contrasted to the other lighter-colored stonework. Someone on the 'Net has posted a very interesting montage of DSH pictures to music on youtube. My two favorite songs set to the pics are "No giving up" and "Colors" by the band Crossfade. I liked these songs so much that I got the CD. These songs go so well with the tone of this hauntingly beautiful hospital. Too bad it wasn't rehabed-I would have loved to work in those art and music cottages that they originally had there-dream job!
