There was definately a fire in that area from what I saw yesterday. If you look up at the damage before you walk in the front door, you will see a heavy wooden crossbeam is about the only remaining structure in that area, and it looks like it was pulled out of a campfire---all cracked and charred.

I finally rented session 9 and watched it last night after the kids went to sleep. Average movie, but interesting because of the location.

I had just finished it and gone to bed, thinking about "Mary" when my youngest child started SCREAMING and continued to scream for what seemed like an awfully long time. Any of you out there who have ever experienced night terrors will understand how fast my heart was racing. For those who haven't, a night terror is when a child, after falling asleep, starts screaming and appears terrified by something only they can see. They can't be comforted because they remain mentally inaccessible. They seem awake but they aren't. Luckily they don't seem to have any recollection of the incident when they wake up ( unlike me! ).
The timing of it completely freaked me out, so soon on the heels of Session 9.
Yikes! I hope it doesn't happen again. Had trouble sleeping myself after that

Puddleboy I think you will like this picture

I think I remember seeing that chair still there yesterday, but it was turned on it's side. As for it's mysterious condition, anything is possible since over the past 21 years of the building's abandonment scores of kids have been going to the building to party, drink, do drugs, and who knows what else.

other expenses like paying a janitor to clean up those leaves? Great pic Motts....you have the eye...here, take one of these twice daily, if symptoms persist see your health care professional

At least you'll smell pretty, Backy. Kudzu has no blossoms.

Actually, I think those lines are water lines from the sprinkler system that was added. Probably a sprinkler head in each room like modern hospitals and hotels.

damn!...both of those rock! Seclusion View is amazingly creepy....

i had gone there as a kid in the 60's and was told they had a little zoo there that was damaged by a hurricane . the monkees escaped and lived wild in the area for a while,anyone else hear this, or were my folks goofing on a little kid?

Some of the bathrooms had full length shower curtains that were identical to those privacy curtains that are still hanging there. Funny how something so typically mundane as a bathroom can be so interesting.

NNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These corridors are gone now as I posted to an earlier pic thread. All that's left is just the door nearest the photographer that leads to about a 15 foot drop down to the roadway below. And as for cyclops, I saw one spray painted on a wall in one of the rooms.

it is a good site

Yes, it ~is~ a thing of beauty, but I have a recurring nightmare about being attacked by wysteria. (LOL)

The reflection is from the plastic cover of a flourescent light fixture. The appearant smoothness of that section of ceiling may be from the lack of paint. Many sections of the building, particularly those exposed to a lot of moisture from the leaking roof, have already lost all their paint and all that is left is the bare plaster. Some parts of the ceilings have even lost the plaster and all that remains is the steel structure and subflooring from the floor above. The building really has fallen into terrible shape.
