Kirkbride Buildings
Last year I saw a very scary movie named "Session 9," a ghost story/psychological thriller set at the Danvers State Mental Hospital. This building is one of the Kirkbride Buildings built in the late 19th century as state-of-the-art mental health facilities. The Danvers building is absolutely gorgeous, in red brick with copper-topped neogothic spires, but the current state of its interior gives me the creeps, especially when you know its history.
