You can call me psychotic myself but, it seems a few people who have commented I this pic say how hospitals creep them out and a lot of people seem say the same thing for the same reasons, but I have always loved hospitals for the same reasons people are creeped out by them... I know thats weird but I guess if I acknowledge others points of view I see that I am strange, ha when I was 5 the House on Haunted Hill became my favorite movie, actually I am listening to the soundtrack right now, its really fun to listen to that music and look at these pictures...
Many of these hospitals show, in Motts' photos, metal screens on the windows and I fear that a lot of patients would have been killed in the event of a fire due to the screens on the windows preventing escape, and of course the locked doors to some of the rooms.
I think the leaching of the calcium is called "effluorescence". It also happens when concrete degrades due to moisture or damp, often found in basements.
love the pic. and thanks to this site i have discovered a new place to visit. brughton mental hospital is on my list. does anyone know if it has a cemetery on the grounds? if so let me know at eddievon@hotmail.com.
the round window was not to look in it was for king valium with his learing glarre to look out for nurse nodding ham with the narcotics//whare is the door knob/
to finish the storey above the casket was put in a sandy grave/thare was no water to cause the wood to rott and no air once the air hit the sides it was creepy the red wood and old brass handles slowly turned gray like something out of a creep show but if the casket was like the day it was put thare 110 years ago/ i wonder what did the tentent look like///// scary thought///boooohoo
