wow- very disturbing. cruel.
these paintings were directly across from the cells- their only windows to the world, so to speak.

No happy little trees here my friends.

either way- this has been one of the few pictures that left a cold sinking feeling in my gut
*goosebumps*

i agree with Felyne,,, My first thoughts were that the"T" was intended to look like a crucifix

The name "Verden" is a pseudonym.

I went to Verden OK and spoke with SEVERAL people about this place and a couple of them were elders that has lived in Verden their WHOLE lives and NO ONE knew anything about this place.........

Its a supine restraint board. they strap you in it so you cant harm yourself. inside the canvas there is slats of wood that keep it straight. The straps are tied around you and also used as handles for transporting violent patients to a safer area. Trust me, I spent 5 years in a mental facility.

Very cool Sean! Thanks for that update. It always makes the photo's on this site that much more interesting when they can be tied to a real person either in name or experience. Much appreciated..

Lets paint over it. No one will see it!

This is heart breaking for some reason. So poor person is wandering around flapping their gums.

While it's a wonderful photo, I cannot see the 'she' that others are referring to. Is there a woman's face within this photo?

I live in Lake City now, and there isn't crap here. I wouldn't have went by myself.lol

Perfect example of nature dismantling what man has made. Everything is reclaimed eventually.

You always find the coolest stuff in the basements.

I can't imagine a worst scenario than being locked in a room, alone, in an abandoned building, without a cell phone. In the summer you could die from hyperthermia. In the winter there's hypothermia. After the batteries in your flashlight died the cockroaches would be free to roam all over your ass after the sun goes down. But that's a moot point because you would die of dehydration from the lack of water in about a week or two.
