very beautiful picture ive spent more than one occasion on and in the buildings of danvers state i once made the mistake of going alone to prove that i was not so full of fear i left that place running for refuge that place is not joke nor are the spirits that once lived there that still roam the halls its to bad they tore it down i really loved the architecture
i would never want to live on that hill trust me its cursed you can count on strange things happening to the poor folks that will soon inhabit that hill
good luck to all that move there just remember you walk in the place of many torn and lost souls
its to bad they tore down the old building i really loved the place seems you cant save anything these days ...i was able to walk through the whole building on more than one occasion we paid off a security guard and spent one whole day and evening up on the hill.. very sad place and the vibe that the building gives off is almost satanic i think...my good friend used to work at danvers state until the day it closed. he saw the horror that went on in that place he was the one who first told me how to navigate the building becuase of its imense size. he told me about the doctors labotomizing people just because of over population. by the way if you didnt know frontal lobe lobotomy was developed at danvers something i had thought about many times while walking through

Olive Estey was there literally for freakin ever. Dr Hagopian became Superintendent eventually. I went to school with his son.

me and my friends just went there about 2 months ago and only the main structure was still intact
but there was an electrical building of the grounds a bit with a long tunnel that was wicked old and dark when we were about 300 feet into it all 5 flashlights went out at the same time then about 20 seconds later back on at the same time
it was a great trip its only about 20 mins away from my house too
