I think it's a standard "Geri chair" with a seat belt, nothing too complicated...

Interesting posy chair ...it was used to restrain patients

My guess is tattered drapes.:)

I can't remember the last time a photo made the hair on the back of my neck stand up like that.

The horror which may (and probably did) echo from that room is definitely not something to take lightly.

This photo seems as lonely as the person whom perhaps gazed out of it.

This is the best picture !!!

Ive actually sat in this chair and it is quite comfortable but freaky as all hell at the same time. Just seeing the chair at the end of the hallway is the scariest part, just imagining what actually happened there.

what are the thing hanging down from the top of the window, scary pic.

again i applaud you mr motts your a genius with your photos you really catch the essence of the places you visit. you make me wish i wasnt such a wimp about visiting pennhurst 10 minutes away

how do you get to go into these buildings mr motts do you have to get permission or do you have to sneak in

looks like some kind of commisary (patient store) for necessities they might need for daily living

i applaud you mr motts your fortitude and bravery(going inside these scary places) and the amazing photos you take you are to be commended.

As hard as it seems to name a favorite, I think this series of photos just might be mine! Such wonderful work!

WOW!!!!
