Totally agree with Deb

Magnificent..!

I see there a person, on the left.
Motts , was there someone when you did the shot?

Oooo... Looks like someone should pass there, behind the web...

You sure that the word "How" was written by a human?
:)
Looks like a chat between... them...

Awesome!!! This site is great!

I saw basically this same thing 2 days ago at 93, the sun was setting behind the building just as I walked around it and it made every window of a whole wing illuminate, it was obvious it was the sun but it was still a really powerful thing to see, it kind of brought life to the building. I took pictures of it, I'll have to upload them.

I live in smithtown about 5 minutes from here,I've been in a few buildings but not 93 or any really major ones yet. The place has an overall eerie feeling I guess you could say but its really incredible. Every time I go I feel lucky to live so close to such an amazing place. If youre into photography you'll have a field day here, I'm a photo major and I've gotten some really crazy shots. To be honest, I have never experienced anything paranormal in or around the buildings. If youre looking for it, anyone can here things or think they saw something. I'm not saying anyones lying though, I don't believe in ghosts or any form of afterlife whatsoever but if there were such things, I could definitely see them lingering around a massive completely abandoned psych ward. Its worth seeing, even if you dong go in, the stature of building 93 is something to see itself. If you go in, do not be stupid and go when there's light. I have seen a friend almost fall through the floor and trust me, its not something to fuck with. I think anyone could understand why its so easy to be fascinated by a place like this. Its old, its creepy at times, overgrown, rundown, paint peeling, plants growing inside, no ceiling sometimes, whole rooms of furniture as if whoever was there just up and left it to rot. The amount of buildings there are still impresses me. Youre going to want to go back and explore until you've seen everything haha. Its worth it. That's my input.

Matt you are indeed right.

It's true. The VFW next door act as the caretakers. It's about 70 yards off to the right of the mausoleum. I grew up in the town and passed the mausoleum, VFW, mansion and Salesian school everyday going to school. Truly a beautiful place. They are opening the land up as a park soon.

I bought the movie Session 9 From ebay two monthes ago.

I meant the Hitachi crane is eating apart Hilltop.

that is so cool!!!

I think that it was finger nails becuase where whould be painets who wanted out, and had claw their way out and lost all of thier nails!! THIS IS VERY FREAKY!!!

In September of 1966 I sat in this auditorium, an unwilling freshman at this stupid, shallow, anachronistic debutant school (for girls who weren't very bright, but who were very rich and needed to be somewhere where they could attend "mixers" with all of the ivy league boys schools, so they could get their "ring by spring"-- the common chant at Bennett Jr. College in those days.) As I sat in my first "Assembly" in this very same auditorium, the then President of the college had a slide show of only 2 slides on the screen in this photo. He alternated the 2 single pictures back and forth, and back and forth. They were: 1. a photo of a chimpanzee , and 2. a photo of Timothy Leary. The President of Bennett Jr. College was informing the new students that Leary had rented the property adjacent to the college, and that anyone found on his property would be immediately expelled. That's where I ended up spending most of my 2 years...
