Abandoned
Abandoned building at The Ladd Center in Exeter, RI. This facility was originaly named “The Exeter School for the Feeble-Minded”. It was shut down in 1993 after years of rumored abuse of its patients. I wouldn’t recommend visiting this facility today. Not only is supposedly haunted by the tourtured souls of hundreds of past residents, RI state police will arrest you if you are spotted snooping around.
This image was captured using a Flipped-Lens Brownie Hawkeye camera and Arista black and white educational film. No digital manipulation was employed.
“Abandoned” is featured in the Toy Camera group.
