Grace is very right..it's like the building calls you to explore,to understand the misery that went on inside it,to meet the spirits that wander it's halls in confusion and agony.
Can you imagine just how creepy this room would look at night?
It couldn't.Theres obviously no electricity in this place.
Another great shot!You can see sunlight in this picture and it looks almost like a room of safety as in it makes me think of people dreaming of escape from this place.
Incredible shot!I don't see anything that could be considered paranormal in this picture but I have no doubt this place is absolutely and completely haunted.
I've noticed alot of these abandoned asylums and such are very pretty architecturally but the beauty has been made poisonous with all the tragedy and human misery that took place beyond these grand halls.
Well I'm sure it wasn't covered by water in those days but it was still a horrid and dungeon like place for children to play in an already horrid place.I mean look at that twisted thing on the wall!
I just noticed something very creepy!If you look right next to the sheep underneath the sheep named Jo going up the rainbow(can't make that ones name out)you will notice a smudge mark that if you look close resembles an evil spectre or hag looming over it.Maybe that wasn't done on purpose or maybe some other forces are at work in this place,wouldn't surprise me given the history and the malevolence of this work of art.

I wonder when fire was?
While open and room never repaired after?
After the facility closed, and it went out by itself?
Or was someone cold, and put it out after they warmed up ? ? ? ?

Points:
title: the i is not dotted as in the name marcia
the N doesnt match either
Very creepy in either case.....
