That angel adds an exciting and awe appeal to the photo. I would like to believe there are angels watching over all who are within mental hospitals, the staff and the patients. This photo gets and A+ from me!!
Indiana Jones brings similar memories for me...damn, maybe an entire generation of kids who grew up watching those movies are now avid adventure seekers...I love places like this, don't care much for the types who usually hang out in them. Do you ever carry anything for self defense?
You are so right Johnr. Glass is a no-no in some mental hospitals. I was commited into a state hospital in 2006, in the female observation unit, and the nurses' station was protected by plexiglass, and one of the heavier females became psychotic and took her fist and rammed that glass so hard it shattered the plexiglass. Wnen they repaired it, they placed wire meshing somehow between the panes of the plexiglass (error in spelling?)
If it is junkies, they be at the right place to trip. Probably they be tripping and maybe they even can feel at home here. Who in their right mind want to take drugs in an old abandoned psych hospital ? Gee!
MY SON and other family have been there also... and brought back pictures too... I ALSO DO research on the unknown as a writer... i have to add to this picture... if you look close at the window on the far bottom right? a man with dark hair and the window on the top right? a naked woman ... okay on to the next pic... i an writing a book about abuse and children of the world... YES THEY SPEAK HERE... PEACE TO ALL.
This is a beautiful pic. It looks as if it is grayscale. I have printed grandkids pics using grayscale, and this pic reminds me of that. I think grayscale is right, I may be in error.
I happen to work off of 193 about 5 minutes from this place and passed it today on my way to Grainger. Interesting how there were two sheriffs at the trailer unlike the one I usually see when I go that way. I'd love to perhaps get a crew of people out there one Friday or Saturday night for some exploring, on the safe side of course! Hit V street as a teen back in the day and heard a lot of stories about this place and knew a few people here and there that had actually gone in. I never had the guts really! Now that I see it a few times a week and then coming here I'm even more curious!
