Like I'd mentioned in previous photos...nature takes back what is rightfully theres.....what happens when buildings sit and crumble for 45 plus yrs.....lost in time....interesting photo Motts.....a book from you would be great Motts. Have you ever thought about it?

Very sad if it is real...that is done by a previous patient. How sad it must have felt like esp if they had no hope. I do hope they did find there way back. Speaking of the last occupents that stayed here. Interesting Motts....

I agree...large deadbolt lock...and tons of dust....wow.....

The blue paint coming through must mean that they repainted it white? Interesting. I thought blue was a more claming color really. Nice contrast Motts!!!

That room really is falling apart isn't it. Interesting how time stands still for these places really. When all the people left and didn't look back....kinda sad for the building. Thats why nature takes it back with all the vines and trees and bushes etc. Interesting photo Motts....Thanks....

Now with the movie House on Haunted Hill...watch the original b&w version only. I think they remade it. I've not ever seen the remade version. They aren't as good anyway. This is the one with Julie Harris (of Knots fame/think she was in Giant with James Dean too)probably much more. It is so scary really. Anyway, great picture as usual Motts....I do wonder who wrote that a former patient? Interesting really.....
