but its sad they let a place like this go to waste.. because it could have helped some people see how it was like to be in some state hospitals and this one was shut down because of lack of money.. such a shame

just a shame that people had to ruin such history. and it happens in a lot of places not just phily..

yes i agree with angel.. and another thing is this place is haunted beyond belief.. and i couldnt imagine what some of the people went thru because they did not understand the mental health.. and the trephening i heard about man.. who would wanna drill a hole in someones head to release the demons
*shutter*

I think autopsy rooms like these are still used. This could have been used in the 70:ies - or yesterday. I live close to morgues I worked in, and they have decayed like this in less than 20 years. Remember that the morgue is the last place to get any fundings!

It is true: you had to remove your white coat, that was supposed to be clean and non-infected, so in the autopsy room you just wore the scrubs you
had underneath the coat. Like Seventh said.

The hooks are for connecting gurneys to the table when we transfer the body. If you see a hook like that in the foot-end, it is for a bucket, if the table or gurney lack drainage. I am a post mortem technician and see them quite often.

Gorgeous. Makes me incredibly homesick.

It looks like a toilet which is just wrong. Couldn't they have made it look more like, well not a toilet?
