Some man just recently purchased a spire to attach to his home. Cant remember his name, very recent, I think it is in the Danvers paper. Crazy.

I like how one of the gloves is giving off the bird. We New Englanders are crazy sometimes! But this picture did scare the crap outta me when I saw it!

I'ts awful to think that people had to go here. Imagine being there.... not just looking at a picture of it.

I've been in a small part of Danvers and it's quite a scry and magnifecent expirience. Sad it's being torn down.....

My great-grandma used to go here. I'ts sad to think that it's in ruins now....with people sparay-painting it and whatnot. Horribly sad.

i can see patients wondeing around here lost in the saddness of time. i think about there familys and how they felt. they may have differant feelings about this place. they are prolly all gone now.

this pic says to me i am like a court case and the judge puts tape over the best witness's mouth and wont let them speak. danvers is speaking dont u hear it

acuteward- Adults can have night terrors too. I've had them several times in my adult life: I would wake up yelling in absolute panic, so terrified I would jump out of bed and run around my apartment, trying to get away from some vague, unidentified horror. My heart would be pounding so hard and fast that I bet people with weak hearts could actually die during night terrors. The whole thing was very hard to shake off; you felt wide awake, yet you would continue to feel terrified, even though you had no idea of what it was you were so scared of. If you wake up during a dream or nightmare, only then do you remember it. And when I'd wake up out of a night terror. I'd remember nothing; it was simply an intense, mysterious fear, not an actual nightmare. Strange. It's even worse when you're a child because it feels so real and it's so difficult to snap out of.

is the hospial being torn down yet,i live in dublin and would love to visit
