shame

I like the way it bleeds into darkness

:)(: lalalala

The problem is, in the 1800's a there was a lot to be learned, insted of understanding mental illness medical science was crude and conditions for the paitents were horrible. Think about some one who suffered from a psychosis being brought here. On first sight we see it at a great building , the paitent on first sight : A scary place to be.

Does anyone know where I can find patient records or old newspaper articles about the place? I'm kind of obsessed with it, and I'm writing a paper for school on it but its so hard to find the info i need on google, its really all about the architecture (which is amazing, but not what I'm looking for).

the only warmth felt by these children was when the sun shone through the window onto their faces and that was the best spot in the room.

Facing the door to freedom and won,

looks like a little girls ribbbon laying on the floor.

ok. all you need is an electrical angle grinder, a few spare discs and an alternator. cut a square around the locks and then you can open it manually.
how do i know? bevore i became a caregiver i worked at a locksmith.

but i think it`s better to let the inner secrets of the safe sleep. even if there is something inside.
it belongs to that beautiful building!!!!!!

well... i`m a caregiver and i think the money of the patients was kept there. or maybe money from the hospital if they have to pay cash for something needed?!
it is only speculation =)

I'm DYING to get in here for some photos and what not. Does anyone know if security is super tight? Or does anyone know who I would contact to maybe get in?

I like the cross on the side

I don't see bravery, I see emptyness. Like the wheelchair stands alone. Number 40, a ghost of a life.

The curve of the asylum is starting to intruge me . . .

For some reason I had a flashback of people painting this room.
