Ive only been to the firehouse and the building up on the hill behind it and i was creaped out. I reallllyyy wanna go to the medical wards but dnt wanna get arrested. How were able to not get caught? Just lucky?

darn........no cool steamer trunks to look through. LOL

I love the before & after. It really gives an idea of what it is and what it was.

And I'm glad to see so many people who got so much use out of this room have found their way here. Reading some of your recollections gives so true humanity to this derelict structure. Thank you

That's some awesome packing that they could get it all in there without toppling out when the door opened. o.O

I would think this quote would help the M.E.s WHY they were there, day after day, doing a gruesome job. Kind of a little pep talk, in a way.

fascinating yet so bleedin' creepy......... *shudder*

i passed thru thiss today . iLoveeeeee juss examine it when i pass by it :D

i was inside the mansion buildings in 2010, i have a few pic on my phone (had 2 get out landscapers buzzing around) I just heard they are about 2 demolish these buildings. I don't know 4 sure but i truly hope not

Both of my late parents worked at Pilgrim State. Bob and Ellen Travers. I worked at Pilgrim State in 1964 as an assistant cook in Building 25. I forgot which floor it was.

Sweet pic Motts.

This Larry character is something else. Many terrible things happened in these places, no one is disputing that, but dont go ruining the experience this site is supposed to bring people because you have personal pain over things that took place here. Theres places to argue over this stuff, and in my opinion it isn't here. If seeing this place hurts so bad that you have to hate on people, then dont come here. Its that easy.... Larry.

thanks so much!

Yes, medical building #23, ground floor.

Im a high school student and i'm in the middle of doing a photography project on psychiatric asylums. This is an amazing picture, very moving and interesting. Do you know what building or floor this picture was taken on? Was it building 23?

P.S. Bones that is very true
