Great site. I spent a whole night watching the creepy pictures and reading the stories. You can feel sadness in the atmosphere by watching the pics and most of the stories are pretty scary.

The asylum is a place I want to visit at night!

That is a friggin cool site. In one of the parts in the movie, the person is straped to this circular tire thing. In the pics on the site, the guy took a picture of the same exact piece of equipment in the kitchen. I was wondering if it was the film crew who left it there or if it was just left there by the hospital and used during shooting.
here is a link to the pics

Just the webpage hosts pics of going there in the early eighties

I really don't think that the production had the enough bugdet to bring that equipment. I'm almost positive that the crew found it in the abandoned asylum.

There's an user who made a comment about the movie and states that he was on the asylum while shooting the movie.
