This was a wonderful presentation! I live not far away and have always been interested in the hospital and wish I had toured the building when that was being offered. When you had a slide up and talked about Session 9 (the one with the building in the back and the chair in the front), you mentioned a movie that was filmed at Danvers State I had never heard of, but I couldn't make out what you were saying....sounded like Pieces of Scary Reason? I'd love to know the correct name of it. Thank you!
Where can i find more info and pictures from inside of the medical building?
When we continue to teach others that all the ancient Americans and Native Americans did were make weapons were continuing a narrative that was created, which put them in a box named savages. There are so much more art than there are weapons, however, it goes unrecognized by modern eyes. Luckily, we found a site in North Carolina, which is teaching us how to see the art once again.
Thank you for your comment. This presentation focused on stone tools that have survived the colonists plow and modern construction. We also showed other tools such as mortar and pestles, drills, net weights, hide scrapers.
Session nine is the best horror movie i have ever seen. The speaker does not understand the meaning of the movie. The ghosts in the movie were ghost of the personalities of a patient with multiple personality disoder. The main ghost was the ghost of the most dangerious personality of the patient. The ghost possed Gorden causing him to kill his wife and child and all his fellow workers. The building itself is scary because it looked like a bat. I believe that it was haunted because of the miss treatment and neglect of mainly of the patients due to overcrowding of the institution.
