This would be the LAST thing you would see as a free man before being booked into Hell.
I can imagine the host of Tales from the Crypt sitting behind the receiving desk and saying "Heee heee hheeeee...Enjoy your stay!"

When you all think your life sucks and you have gotten a raw deal from life....look at this picture.
Human beings just like you and me were forced to live in these conditions for years.
Be Thankful....

This whole image is priceless.
Once an active jail cell that housed angry, violent, vicious criminals for years is now a last refuge for the most desolate and hopeless of our population.
The suffering goes on....only now it is not the criminals who are tormented but those that society has turned their backs on.

Just think of how many men moved through this prison since the 1830s.
The concentrated aura of despair and hopelessness is sure to project paranormal activity.
I saw the TAPS show that investigated this place and they recorded some freaky S$#@

I see the locals are having fun...judging by all of the empty beer cans.
It is very very sad to see such a historical building being so neglected and now inhabited by Crack Head and Winos.
I suppose you would have to be drugged or drunk to want to live in a empty prison cell.

Are you a dual personality? Just wondering.
Do you know any cool sites near Portland? The main one I know of ( Old St. Vincents off nw 25th ) was demolished & developed soon after high school.
