I really don't understand why they just don't get rid of those buildings!! Oh, there were was police presence on the grounds.
I went to Pilgrim the other night and as soon as I turned down the street to 998 Crooked Hill Road, I got chills. The place is really creepy. To be honest, I have never seen anything like it. It was really dark, there are not many street lights. There was like a dark cloud over the place. I went with my husband and my brother. My husband was very uncomfortable and said that he would never go back there, he forced me to leave. I went back the next day so that I could really see the buildings. It was horrible. I just can't get this place off my mind. I was there looking for building 5. There are operable buildings there and I don't know why. The place is depressing. They have like 2 inpatient rehab facilities out there.

My grandmother died at Pilgrim State in the 1930s. It was a bit of a family mystery for years and eventually I was able to obtain her medical records from the facility. Seemed like a very sad place to be.
