That's probably because this site is recommended on a lot of "ghosthunter" sites.....

Ha! Grow typewriters that's funny!!!

Maybe its an old heart monitor?

wow..this one gets u real deep...

kinda looks like an oscilloscope

It looks like a sick ward from the early days to quarantine infectious people.

I think this proves my theory that no medical facility ever updates their curtains because they will always look new.

The curtians look strangely new....

there is a set of steps to the right with a platform.

I am staying out of this one. :)

You're absolutely right, silkster. And look at the drop-off on the left side. If one were to slip...
I understand that not having the tub so low to the ground could make it easier for staff to bathe patients, but it just seems careless.

Motts,
out of all these buildings that you got pictures of the outside, are any of these still in use at all?

Robin,
Yeah, it sort of does. Also, it looks like there is a raccoon coming through the mattress and in front of it looks like a hangmans noose.

and round....

Just an observation here......
The bathtub is so close to the window, especially for children taking a bath, (safety issue) also, why is it raised up from the floor like that when most were handicapped patients..... If you notice... the shower curtain rod (if there was a curtain on it right now) does not shield the bather from the window , it includes it instead.
