Matt,
It's very eery and freaky in there, there is so much damage, and yes you did hear screams, but, you try to block them out, the place is trashed, the paint is falling off the walls, there is graffiti everywhere, broken doors,windows and bathrooms, it's just scary, but, at the same time, it's interesting, Boiler and I were just there on Sunday 8/1. They have started to take the building down now, Testa is there with all their equipment, so it won't be long before it's gone and just leveled like this horror place was never there, but, us former patients will never forget about Gaebler or the hell we endured., If you were there, when were you there?

Noname,
I heard the noise on Sunday when I was there with Boiler1220, Do tell him what do it is, cause honestly, he is a determined and strong man, he will so get the door opened,, trust me, I seen him in action.....

Boiler1220,
Hello, I know of the noise, but, I guess I just tried to block it out, cause we were in there, I didn't see any locked doors, so if Scott can tell us where that door is yes, we need to unlock it, Eric and I went there yesterday but, couldn't really see what was done. Can't wait for Sunday and to see you again....

did anyone ever hear anything being dragged across the floor?

when people went in there i bet a lot of screams were heard

That was the noise it sounded like someone banging on a seclusion room door. Where was the door that was stuck. I will get it open. I didn't hear the banging long enough to see where it was coming from

I think that was the noise I heard while in the cafe on sunday. As soon as I got in I said "what's that noise". I wonder if that's the noise you talk of. I thought someone was there at first

They started taking the place down. Tasta is there now with there equipment. Were going to the nature trail on sunday if anyone wants to meet us call me.

Noname,
Explain to me how you got in there on 7/28/2010, because the building is fenched off and there is a locked door on ther front of the building , and also there are no locked doors inside of the building, I have been on every floor and every ward and every room, and when they closed the building. the took all the locls off the doors so people couldn't get locked in any of the rooms and suffocate and die....

To All
I just wanted to let you know that Gaebler is coming down this week, I just went there today and the company Testa in Wakefield,Ma got the contract to demolish on 7/15/2010. THey have a locked door on the front of the building now and a fench around the whole building, and they have already done a lot of work, not to the building but, like all the poles and things outside have been taken down and there are piles and piles of sebris from the inside of the building that has been taken out of the building. So, IU am assuming that the building will be down this week, cause they are working pretty fast. I am very mad that the fact that I can't get back in there. I have been in there quite a lot this year and a month ago. I wanted to go back to see more of it and go downstairs to the basement but, now i can't, so I am now going to email channel 5, The Daily News Tribune Paper and see if I can't somehow be able to be there when it does go down this week, I feel I have to do something, that by them taking it down without me and any other kids who were patients there and treated like crap and abused don't get to get the clousure that we all deserve. It's the least the state can do, since the state owns the building not the city of Waltham,Ma. I will let you all know if I get anywhere....

Scott
WOW!!! I was there too, and that is how I got in there as well......

Noname,
yes, I have heard those same noises when I was there, but, I just thought that I was hallucinating and didn't want to believe what I was hearing, I heard it up on the 2nd and 3rd floors, which would be Ward d and B on the 2nd floor and Ward E and A on the 3rd floor, or I think it's Ward A, I know it's ward e casue my cousin was on ward e when I was there on ward d. The place is just really freaky now, and all kinds of noises I hear, I heard childrens voices and a constant knocking noise on the windows like we used to do and always scream for help, and the knocking noise was in perfect harmony, it was really weird.

Noname
