I adore the symmetry of these bay windows - just so delightful. This would have been a beautiful room when it was new.

Both beautiful and disturbing.

As though hospital isn't scary and traumatic enough without subjecting children to evil clowns, painted on the walls of dark and claustrophobic basement tunnels... how many children saw this and felt more freaked out by it, rather than comforted like the artist had (hopefully) intended?

Those are geri chairs. Used to restrain the elderly. 5 point restraints are too hard on an elderly body so these chairs have a "meal" tray you latch on and 99% of the time an elderly person with dementia can not figure out how to get it off - thus being restrained in a chair. Quite effective actually. They even recline.

I can't say the buildings were haunted but I can def say they were extremely creepy I never seen any ghosts or heard any dumb shit but that place is Lika huge maze when it's dark an all sense of direction is out the window I got lost in the tunnels as a youngin when I went AWOL from the old detention center that wus on the same campus spite curiosity of danger I mean the buildings themselves would play mind games wit yuh at nite time I got my hands on some old patient charts from the mental asylum that wus later used as a elderly home that said some pretty gruesome things an seen sum pretty horrific devices but never had any spiritual encounters lol all In all awesome pix it's exactly how I remembered it =] just wish u woulda got pix of the other two complexes b4 they demo'd em damn shame they took em dwn!

This would make a killer wallpaper. Fantastic shot Mr. Motts. From what I'm reading from recent posts I'm assuming this place has a date with the wrecking ball soon?
D' field- they didnt tear it down yet. It will be torn down sometime in September 2011.
