Hey Motts, it looks as if something/someone has been hanged at the end of the hallway

Motts, you are creative to say the least! You make this place come alive, and I can feel what it could have been like in its heyday years. This has been an awesome adventure, and I did not even have to leave my home! Keep it up and bring more!

To the right of the stairs, could that possibly be a large arched window?

I think if one had soft furry restraints and a cute man beside, being retrained to the bed could be a lot of exciting fun!

"Mebby..."exorcisms" if the asylum is old enough!"
"Why would you want to perform an exorcism here? It doesn't make any sense... "

Well, Back in the day, probably before this asylum's time, more in the middle ages up through the 18 th century, it was thought that vilolent mental illness was really demonic possession. Ergo, if someone was having Schizophrenic or Psychotic episodes, they called the priest in, and he performed an exorcism.


"Speaking of the kellogg sanitarium, has anyone seen " THE ROAD TO WELLVILLE "?"
"No, why do you ask? Has someone taken it?"



Hah. Great movie, set in the
Battle CreekSanitarium run by Dr. John Harvey Kellogg. Back then, some sanitarium's and asylums were like resort spas. Very peculiar, especially with the modern view of institutions. Dr. Kellogg was one of the major proponents of "fitness culture" in the late 19th Century, a time when many urban Americans' diets were seriously lacking in fresh fruits and vegetables, or whole grains for that matter.

our showers at state hospital was more private with brick encasing and a shower curtain for privacy. the toilet stalls were also encased only no handles on the stall doors and centainly no locks. The bad part about the four shower stalls was, one only ran cold ice water, and never warm, and seems I always had to use the ice water shower...sure made me wake up in the mornings!
