Can still remember the sounds of the nurse giving out the shots of Prolixen...
"Bend over, NEXT! Bend over, NEXT! Bend over, NEXT!

Ahh, to be seduced by the sounds of Boy George from my radio at the Met in 1984...whoo hoo!

They put one patient in seclusion for 3 months for pulling a nurses hair. A nurse who intentionally withheld meds from said patient.

At night the attendants would distribute shots of booze to some of the "compliant" patients...no BS!

One female patient saved her feces and urine in a bowl for a week and when it was time for meds dumped it on the head of a nurse who made "Nurse Ratchet" look like Mother Theresa. A patient who witnessed this and laughed was put in seclusion and we can only guess what happened to the perpretrator.

was there any children laid to rest there?

I never knew that Navi, thanks for the info! Opacity is a learning enviroment after all. :-D

We could burn 100 dump trucks of sage at "the Met" and it would just scratch the surface of the funky karma that permeates this hellish place. That said, the folks who had grounds privileges didn't have it that bad in general but all bets were off with the locked wards...

Well, some of the folks who looked out from that porch are living in halfway houses or living on the street or in their own apartment.

This weapon is indeed from our stock pile of artillery missiles used in vietnam. And, we do not perform drills in the old Pennhurst buildings. Unstable floors and cave ins make it a dangerous place to walk. You are lucky you did not get charged with trespassing on government property. Hope to see ya around

I found this website & read some of the comments. I love going 2 funerals. but, i really want 2 go 2 a morgue someday. Lot people, think that morgue is scary. I do not, think its scary @ all. unless u doing it @ nitetime. idk, i shouldn't judge. caused i only see the morgue on all of csi's & there scary. but a real morgue. idk. if i ever do see a morgue ill let u know for real. i also, love going 2 cemeteries 2. i I did, want 2 be a forensics officer. one time. but then u have 2 go 2 school & hate school.

Is that Sam for real? I read on the guestbook someone wrote they worked there also and if you go in the tunnels you will never be seen again.

It doesn't look good any more, kfb, it's all been torn down. Sadly, Alas. Amen.

Yes, I believe these are the first two wards closes to administration, which would be the original 1856 structure.

It is almost impossible to pick a single favorite as they all have their own qualities that I admire... there are many not posted on this site either.
