Why would there be babies in a mental institute? Can you actually diagnose mentally ill babies? Or were they born to some of the patients during their stay?

They'd often be children of the paitents. Many women were sent to these hospitals for stress-related illnesses, and bought their children.
A lot of the time, parts of these places were more like a weekend retreat that a secure mental facility.

In a MENTAL ASYLUM??
Chester: Which means that people were not only in here by many classes but also by ages,too.
Me: That,Chester,or I've been watching "Nightmare on Elm Street" too much.

I am so intrigued by these pics...old abandoned buildings like this always hold so much incredible history.

I work as an art tech/site support at a secondary school atm, and it is shocking how much stuff is either left/destroyed during rebuilds...we tried to keep hold of anything we could reuse in the Art department during a recent rebuild then came back after the summer break to discover management had had the lot of it destroyed because they couldn't be bothered to get it moved across...not only was that a huge waste, it ended up costing them an extra couple of grand to get new equipment u_u.
*hands her the soapbox back*
Did you use a flash on your camera to get these pics? I only ask as they're all much more fluidly lit than I normally manage (mind you...I have no skill whatsoever xDD).

Yes, most of them used flash. Lighting in there was very poor

I hope you guys had gloves on in that place. It doesn't look like a place where you'd want to touch anything.

I wore gloves, but they weren't nessecary so long as you are careful.

Did you have to sneak in there? It doesn't really seem like a place that would be open to the public...

I personally don't move things. However, many items have been moved around by previous explorers who want to make the picture look a certain way.

Something like this... this exploration, sounds so amazing. I wish I could do something like this... yet, I would be much to paranoid of getting in trouble...
I love the pictures, it's like looking into a window into a world we're never shown, never taught about.

Most old unnused buildings around here torn down that only places are almost as old as the U.S (there is a church in the next city that I heard is 150 years olds) so it's REALLY unsafe.....there is never anything cool to do here (maybe ill sneak into the woods tommorrw)

Interesting indeed.
though truth be told, I thought the pillowcase or blanket on the middle rack on this changing table at first was a pair of large male gloves.

Entering any building without permission is trespass.

Kelly, how big of a crew do you usually take with you? Because I suspect you WOULD need a crew, just in case someone got hurt or lost, or if you just need someone to help you with equipment.
