  • Welcome back. Lots of grim history in these old state schools, always the same concerns. Overcrowding, lack of funding, short staff & in some cases… ignorance towards the mentally challenged. This is one of those places.
    Join me on this explore and let’s step back in time together. Links below have all the information on this State School/Prison.

    This property likes to take lives noticed the grass is not cut that’s because Roger the maintenance guy was its last victim to date.

      Damn!! You seem to know a lot of this area, thank you for that. Did you know the maintenance guy Roger? This whole place has some pretty dark history.

      A nun was raped and murdered there. I did know Roger he chased me away. He worked there for a long time and then something happened to his brain. They drilled a hole in his head and the end result was one day he was stable another day he would not be well working on the property. He was operating a chainsaw. It went poorly for him. I guess he was able to murmur a little bit, but because of the way he was laying people walking by or unable to see or hear him. An animal took attention to him which drew the attention of a passerby who witnessed his last breath. Roger told me the place was haunted he said it like to throw sticks

    WOW! Another fantastic explore with such a painfully sad history. These old school buildings always remind me of my elementary school interiors. Ooo peeling paint mmm ahhh ooo 😁😁😁
    That prison was definitely a no go. They had it secured like fort Knox! Would love to have seen the inside of the homes though.
    Crazy history a this location but as always, you bring to life the past on such an amazing awesome way. Always feel like I'm there with you.

    My parents put my sister in there from 1971-1973. I was a toddler then. I clearly remember getting to go visit her there, only once. Knowing what I know now, is almost unforgivable that they sent her away to such a place.

    This place is amazing Marlo! I loved the colors in that room youbdidnt go in on the walls where it looked like it was leaking down them... that mattress and pillow just chillin on the floor in that one room... these places always amaze me... the mindset of... the more we get in here, the more money we get... but disregard the cost to care for that many more.. they want to minimize the cost of the care, so more money in pockets... and those that suffer are the patients or residents... most of whom cant speak for themselves... great explore as always!! Have a most wonderful day my dear friend!! ✌

      Oh btw.. not the forum for this, but i found organic liquid vitamins and I’m tucking that in the gift box going out Tuesday. Okay back to state school stuff.. they also use to use shock treatment as punishment but stopped it due to the residents dying from it. They literally had no clue how to treat people back then. Always appreciate you my friend ☺️

      me of an opportunity to receive proper reading, writing, and math
      education causing me to lack the academic instructions. Now,
      I lack basic reading, writing, and math skills.

      at the polling station. What do you think of that?

    The place with the cage around it is still being operated today at houses individuals who have committed hideous crimes, sexually against children, often leading to their death.

We go into another building and happens to be the prison. Very evil vibes . Horrible feeling. We brought a oujji bored there. And were doing it we contacted some girl named noelle. . It spells out all our names and then we here a scream of a woman. we get the fuck out of there. As we are running it sounds like a bunch of football players are running in the wall out side like the building shakes. I highly don’t recommend going here. We found the cells as well and a dark black figure just stares us down. Place is fucked.
