  Its really refreshing to see not only an abandoned building get such a new lease of life, but for them to also be so responsible in telling the history of the location.

  "Nobody's Child" is the title of the book Marie Balter co-wrote about her life. She earned degrees from Salem State College and Harvard. She eventually ended up working at the Danvers State Hospital and founded the Balter Institute. Basically she dedicated her life to helping others with mental illnesses. A remarkable woman.

  Danvers is also the original Salem Village where the Witch hysteria began. It changed it's name to Danvers in 1752.

  I actually worked there in the mid 1970”s. &nbsp;Everyone had a huge key ring. &nbsp;Everything under &nbsp;lock and key. &nbsp;Patients &nbsp;were tied to beds. &nbsp;A lot of people who worked there actually <br>lived there. There were a lot more buildings. They grew their own food in the day. &nbsp;It was something in its day.

  Session 9 is one of the most underrated gems of the horror scene. Great asylum/ghostie romp. I love this film, plus, it has some of the earliest appearances of Peter Mullan, Paul Guilfoyle, and pre-CSI and sunglasses David Caruso. Thanks for linking this location to that film for me! Keep up the great content!

  I had a coworker that when he was a kid his school would go there and sing Christmas carols for the residents. He said it wasn&apos;t even remotely scary it felt like visiting a nursing home. <br>I remember how it looked abandoned and it was extremely creepy looking. <br>PS - visit Marblehead Cemetery!

  You both took me through memories as you walked the hallways! I had a friend of mine who rented an apartment here and whenever I&apos;d come to visit her, we would walk around and explore the property. Thank you!

  Session 9 was incredible but sadly many dont get it , very psychological.
