Its amazing isn't it? How you have to repeat yourself time and time again and people still do not get it.

The reason they took "ALL" the hinges is because they were brass hinges. Brass, like copper has a decent resale value. I was looking at another site where they smashed walls to get at the copper and noticed they smashed through marble sheets to get the copper. they probably got $5 worth of copper but the sheet of marble would have brought them $500

ANYONE. when you enter through the admin. building go straight.. and you end up @ the dietary. theres a room filled with a bunch of medicine bottles. go through that.. and you find a door that wont budge. we have tried getting in. i mean we really havent used force but every way in is completly bolted shut. one door is even bricked up. does anyone have ANY idea what could be in there? im so curious.. i love going up there i think im there at least once a week & its killing me not knowing what is behind those doors

wheres this at too?

which building is this in??

Autopsy stations, downdraft dissection and ventilation equipment, body handling systems, grossing stations refrigeration cabinets, fluid storage cabinets, body trays, stacking carts and trolleys, storage racks, emergency and anatomy body storage, and miscellaneous surgical and dissection tools and equipment. You will not, however, find ghosts and other disembodied spiritual entities due to current health code enforcements.

Parent, are you planning on contributing in some way or are you just looking for a place to rant and rave about something you know little about and insult people (like those who did work in a professionally capacity) in the process?

No, not really... perhaps you blinked?

Looks like the top of a boy's head right beneath the chairs... See it? sticking out of the floor?

James,
We all wish "they" wouldn't. This was quite the place back in the day and it is truly a shame that nothing was done back in the early 80's to keep the place alive. So, just what are you doing in there, 1997 or later...

No sain person can defend this terrable place ! My neighbor worked at Pennhurst, she agrees NO SANE PERSON CAN DEFEND WHAT TOOK PLACE AT PENNHURST. SHE SERVED IN A PROFESSIONAL CAPACITY.

I love the floor tiles - strange I know, but the quiet crunching under your feet and the smell of floor glue...

wow so uh whos up for a little ice fishing?

hrheheheh nope havent you heard its been starting to rain indoors latey heheh(heeh im just kidding around =P )

I am in absolute awe of your pictures. I have never seen a sight like this. I have a peculiar fascination with these dilapitated but beautifully architectured buildings, the creepiness and sad histories of these places leaves me intrigued and your pictures tell an interesting story:)
