I wonder if the security guards would freak if someone dressed as a lady in long flowing white garments and ran screaming across the road and off into the night.

The chimneys are beautiful. Can you imagine what a chore it was to heat that building in the days before electricity? Thanks Motts!

I agree 100%, potofjoe!

Uhhhhhhhh!! What kinda stuff do you hear, ugh229?

after watching session 9 i got on the net to read up on Danvers, it is really interesting but so creepy!!! if anyone nows where i can get in touch with inmates family ? i am just curiouse!

im not sure if most of the people who have stayed here were societys scape goats , who to blame may be a matter of opinion, under funding , lack of public outcry, i dont have the answers, thats up to the people who get paid to make the decision.

Society has traditionally always tried to find scapegoats for its problems. here is where they stayed

Okay first off THANK YOU. :) i've been looking for photos of this water tower on the net and this is perfect! :) im trying to do a 3d model of Danver in SecondLife to try and keep the memory alive ^-^ wish me luck.

Welp they say Danver is one of the most haunted places in America... yeah i know is silly, but maybe those ghosts, who are now with out rooms to haunt, pay a visit to the new developers :)

i dont know much about the spirit world , but this place has a aura about it , alot of the other places do as well, but there is just something about this place.

I worked at a place that used to be a tuberculoses ( can't spell) hosp. and I had to check the roof for anyone -and there was this little room by itself with no windows that had a chair like that bolted down facing the wall-it was creepy!! The pic just reminded me

someone was bored

i should somewhat rethink my last post on this picture . i cannot blame any particular politition, i suppose its by and large another by product of a failed or flawed system.

This picture gives me chills.
I have just recently become obsessed with old, abandoned buildings and have visited quite a few sites and I gotta say, this site is incredible.

holly, with all do respect the fact that it was a metal health facility is not where it failed to live up to its potential . the ever genuis governer billy weld decided that our tax money needed to be spent on other things like 35 year chrismas decorations in towns like wellsley im obvisily being sarcastic . we all know how well our fine public officials handle money.
