nice site

Mark is just one of the maggots that finish off the decaying body. A predator and a opportunist. He's what the world has too much of these days. Bless his little greasy soul.

Just a nice photo that portrays the natural light and the humanity of a common chair. Just nice, Motts.

Wow, As a child I had a recurring dream about a morgue freezer in my elementary school kitchen that looked just like this.

That metal work!

I love this shot Motts, and the funny caption.

THIS IS AMAZING....IT'S LIKE LOOKING AT A STILL SHOT OF A MOVIE(LIKE THE RING). TOO BAD IT WILL BE GONE!

What really scares me about the auditorium is that my boyfriend went in there with a couple friends. They realized they lost one of their groupmates in the auditorium. They went back to get him but he wasn't there. The looked around for him but never found him before they were chased out by the police. A few days later they heard about the friend they lost. He was found in the auditorium by the police and he had to be sent to various different mental hospitals and somehow he killed himself. I want to go see the hospital myself, but that story kinda freaks me out. There's something strange about it for me. I'll drive by it and get this strange...desire. I don't even know what I desire, but I definitely know the feeling. So I come home and scan through all the photos on this site, and then for some reason, I have a fear of mirrors for weeks until I stop thinking about the hospital. I have a really big mirror in my room and one night it was so bad, I actually cried the whole time I covered it and I had to delete all the photos I had on my computer that I was going to use for a project. (Don't worry, I never took any from here. I didn't want to be sued.)

looks like she wants to leave, tho something brings her back.. as if she can let go of a memory of some sort..

a last cry for help , tho she knows there is none...

was this self inflicted...

such painfull emotion.. truly beutiful

grudge..

God, these structures all have such beautifil windows and moldings, and theres looks to be alot of them still intact! I wish they wold save some of this before they demolish it and either use it to preserve the memory of the place or sell it in a state auction so people who love the structure could have a little piece of it before its gone forever.

WOAH! It does look like that silent hill scene. Great pic!
