The DSH was'nt around for a 100 years i dont think. was it?

Personally, Seltzer. I think Big Ed has a Valed (spl) point & Argument, You insulted him pretty heavly.
I'm on Big Ed's side of this Conflict, Even though the argument was in the past.
As for the Picture, Good show motts! LOL.

I can think of few places, that I have visited, that have such an erie feeling about them. I have been to abandoned grand hotels, that are as expansive, and dark, though at Danvers the history is palpable.

Hundred bucks says people will start experiencing strange things in these apartments.
Certain places should be left alone.

forgot to tell you that it was a bulkhead that was closing when I seen this.
really had my heart racing. I had been there at least a dozen times and nothing. now I believe in spirits. Its great.

if you look in the corner where the set of stairs, about 3 stairs, about 100ft to the left. that is where I seen the figure in dirty white DRs coat. this happened over 25yrs ago and I can remember it like yesturday.cool place!!

I have been there, visiting, I used to go there with friends at night drinking and smoking. Let me tell you I sobered up when I came around the corner and 50ft away, a dark figure in a white coat slowly closed a bulkhead. Never went back.

This has got to be one of my top 10 favorite galleries!!!

Live 20min away from DSH. Security was brutal up there before demo. We were turned away many times. It was amazing up there. Its horrible what they are doing to the hospital. Many Pysch. Hospitals are being demolished. Wonder why??

nah..prob not. she's just messing with yur freakin mind. such a loser.

This is maddening! A gargantuan mausoleum of Gothic beauty, and shrine to the better treatment of the mentally ill, torn down--to make way for trendy apartments! That is stupidity and GREED at its finest. Why didn't those corporate clowns RENOVATE ALL OF THE RUINS? More money for them! Maybe they couldn't find that many avante-gard to live there? This historical beauty should have been protected and saved! If even by sanction from a higher authority. (Happy Birthday, Dear President....) The haunting beauty of the place can never be surplanted or duplicated. Kind'a like a National Forest. Living in one of those stately apartments would be interesting, indeed. Especially with all those poor, dead, miserable souls wandering about. I wouldn't want to be so up close and personal--akin--to those former occupants. I'm afraid I would have a tendency to wake up screaming in the middle of the night, and slobbering into my pillow!

Thats some nice work! I LOL'd at the glove with the middle finger!

i wish danvers was not torn down i wanted to explore this soo much im only 10 but o well iwill bie a condo their to see if the grounds

And to Kat- Judge not lest you be judged Holier than thou. Your words make me feel sick to my stomach.
