They look like those little party poppers that you get on New Year's Eve, where you pull a string on the bottom and confetti shoots out of the top.

"Pulls pants down" "Young lady walks in" "I jump up and pulls pants up" "She starts laughing" And i notice i wasn't through with my buisness and it was all over my pants "Black stains hard to get out"

Ok if that was for an insane asylum then wouldn't that mean big thick steel doors behind you to lock you in?... What if the spirits didn't want you viewing their home they died in..
You might want to watch and make sure they dont slam any doors on you i've seen it happen... *BAM*

Ok if you notice the little metal things at the top of the chair.. Was it to shock the little kids if they didn't stay steal if so you might as well let my hair grow 10 feet long.. *Swings back and forth on feet* sweeny todd....

Ok its obvious every picture i click on i'm going to get freaked out cant you have a flower field on here! i'm scared if i click again i might see a dead girl.

I advance in researching pandoras box and this is a amazing picture. But is it a real picture?. If so then what i have learned so far on pandoras box. That a king once owned it and it was alot bigger. And he hid bodies in it. And only the holy of the holy could look in.

Some jokes can be made about the views of the basement rooms. What is not a joke is that until the fire of 1991 which destroyed the accompanying building to the tower, the concrete floors had to be mopped and disinfected every day because of the still-present smell of urine and feces, despite the fact that patients had not been kept in the rooms (cells?) for 50 years.

In the summer of 1972 I was lucky enough to intern at WSH. My room was on the top floor just to the left of the tower. It's still visible on the picture. It seemed as haunted on the inside as it does on the outside. What a great experience.

This reminds me of the movie "Session 9" which was filmed in Danvers. There's one particular scene that just pops out in my mind.

As it were, the Hooper Turret (the second one, not this one) seems to have been some kind of meeting area. So maybe this one served the same purpose?
