Hospitals
Jackson Sanatorium
Regarded as one of the easiest explores around, naturally we were spotted on the way in and ejected by the police. The officer was very nice to us and called the owner to see if they were willing to let us go. This is one time where having a massive amount of camera equipment with…

Horatio Alger Center for the Mentally Impaired
Just a couple shots. This is one of those places that is very very epic, but also tricky to pull good shots from. The woodwork we saw was astonishing, though. Tons of fun visiting this one.

Norwich State Hospital on Film
Another set from Nahhhhwich, this one on Fuji Pro 160S. These were shot on one of the Canon A1s I was shooting with to try and lighten the load. These are probably the majority of my favorite shots from here, and I believe this was my last trip.

Northampton State Hospital Nurses’ Dorm- Trip 9
The nurses’ dorm was the first building you saw when driving past Northampton State Hospital. Perhaps because it was so out in the open and obvious, I never explored it until years later.

Foxborough State Hospital
Foxboro State hospital opened in 1889 and treated patients until about 1976. Unfortunately I was not able to explore the hospital before renovations began, but I could not let this place be renovated without seeing it at least once.

Gaebler Children’s Center – Trips 1 – 3
Built near the Metropolitan State Hospital campus, the Gaebler School was created specifically to address the needs of children with mental illnesses. As with many institutions of it’s type, the stories of former patients who resided within these walls are not always pretty. It is chilling to walk the halls of this building, passing seclusion…
