The hospital overlooking the River Thames

The History Of Norwich Insane Asylum

The hospital first opened its doors in 1904 in Norwich, Connecticut. It was built in an idyllic location chosen for its therapeutic properties overlooking the River Thames.

The Norwich Insane Asylum was built isolated from civilization, which worked to its benefit as it began to grow during its early years sprouting new buildings that accompanied the original construction (see aerial view of the hospital here). These new construction projects included patient wards, staff cottages, laboratories and workshops. All of the structures were interconnected by a large network of underground utility tunnels. These tunnels transported electricity, hot water, and patients to various areas on the grounds. The hospital remained self-sufficient, almost like a small town, with its own power plant, pump house, working farm, kitchen, theater and church.

Over 3,000 patients and 1,000 employees were residents on the asylum grounds in the 1950’s. 

Slowly patients began to leave Norwich State Hospital due to deinstitutionalization and it permanently closed its doors in 1996. Since then time has basically stood still on the property with a few exceptions. Currently there is talk about converting the grounds into a theme park, but nothing has been set in stone.

Exploration...

After a long tedious drive we leave the car in a commuter parking lot close to the buildings. Ever the vigilant group of explorers we notice a State Trooper making his rounds and dive into the forest for cover. Luckily we outsmarted the police yet again and after regrouping walk along the Thames River for a few hundred feet. We finally see the abandoned pump house looming in the distance and decide to make this our entryway into the campus. 

This site has a reputation for being well guarded, well patrolled, and does not take kindly to trespassers. I am always on edge when exploring across the Atlantic and the numerous “State Property – No Trespassing” signs that litter the grounds did not bode well for my paranoia. Instead of exposing ourselves above ground to security and prying eyes, we decided to take the underground route through the utility tunnels.

Using the tunnels we explored many buildings without ever being forced to go outside. This method of travel was soon confirmed to be the safest. On our first attempt to venture outside we were only a few feet away from a security officer in a black uniform. Fortunately he didn’t look our way and we quickly receded back into the tunnel network. For a while we hid in the abandoned theater so we could look around the campus without being seen.

This encounter with security dampened our spirits and made our visit a whole lot shorter than we would have liked. We made our grande exit through the empty chapel, this allowed us to avoid walking back through the forest. As we were walking back to the commuter lot to pickup our car we noticed the State Trooper had been watching us as we suspiciously walked down the road. I wonder where we went to and were coming back from?!

I don't act like I know it all. And for your information, I didn't just sit in an office all day. I was out in the plant frequently. I even reported safety things before. Trust me when I say OSHA is not a very big fan of the company I worked for. I paid lots of fines because they were dumb. (They couldn't even produce an MSDS book to paramedics one time) As someone who has seen OSHA up close, I kind of know what I am talking about. Not to mention that when I worked at another place I called OSHA on my boss. My dad works with them as well. I think I know a little bit about how it works. So yeah, you might have some shifty people at times, but not with stuff like that.

DOD disclosures

Archie, you have access on a need to know level. What you are reading is what the people who hired you want you to read. Any "covert" information would be catogorized well above the level of the average worker, kept under lock and key (literally) and not left lying around for anyone to casually browse. Classified info cannot, by DOD directive, be accessable thru non-classified means, and at various levels of sensitivity, must be kept under cypher lock in secured rooms.

And with all due respect, I doubt you have the clearance level to access it.

Having dealt with sensitive information in the past, I can tell you :

A) that the government takes security VERY seriously,
B) most of what is "classified" is incredibly boring
C) any agency that allows said information out, if discovered, will suffer severe sanctions, including loss of security privlidges, and possable gov't contracts.
D) any individual who views said information and discloses it in violation of DOD directives, can be held accountable, including fines and jail time, it can be construed as espionage. Military personel can be court martialed. Depending on the severity of the breach, they may be tried as traitors, which still carrys the death penalty.

I know a guy who left a repository unlocked one night, and it took him several months of investigations to clear his name.

So, even if you were to find some classified "dirt", you better keep it to yourself, or the Gov't agents WILL be knocking on your door! Trust me on this, these boys have NO sense of humor with anything even vaguely related to national security. They WILL come down on you .

Occupational Safety

Having some experience with OSHA, I must say I find it hard to believe an inspector would overlook an incident like that occuring while he was on the premises. Certainly not IMPOSSIBLE, but extremely unlikely. OSHA is a Federal watchdog organization, and as such is under scrutiny not only from the inside but also from the industrial giants they inspect. Any company that has been hit with multi- millions in fines for non compliance would love to prove OSHA inspectors are corrupt, to cast doubt on the credability of their findings against their own factories. (OSHA will indeed fine you $800-$1000 for leaning a piece of quarter inch plywood against a fire extinguisher, even if its just to go open a door to take it out.)
Depending on what the plant produces and for who, the inspector could be charged with industrial espionage, even.

Add that the inspector can be held personally liable for any injuries that should occur in a repeat of the event, and I cant see how that could have happened. More likely, regardless of OSHA being there or not, the department where the accident occured would be immediatly shut down, if for no other reason than repairs. With OSHA present, and a bearing in mind OSHA sends teams, not single inspectors, they would be obliged to immediatly shut down operations, launch an investigation, and determine if the company was guilty of neglegence, or it was an unforseeable mechanical failure. Even should it be the latter, guardrails and other precautions should have been in place to keep people out of the area the machinery would have landed. Hell, anytime someone is more than 6 feet above the floor/ground, it requires a safety harness. The only reason for an injury would be if the employee had been trained, and still refused to use required safety equipment. A couple of warnings for such in the employees file would really support the companies position.

For an event like this to occur during an OSHA visit would be incredibly embarrasing for the company, also. Kind of like texting on your cel, and running into a cop car while he's stopped at a light, you basically KNOW you are screwed!

Methinks, Archie, thine friend may have been paying heavy tribute to Dionysus prior to relating yon tale!

of course osha is going to say that, they are getting paid under the table for it! this happens more often than you think. i once worked in a parts stamping plant, and one of the presses stamp fell (which weighed many tons) and nearly missed my buddys hands, osha had a representative at the plant and he went and told the rep and the rep said he wasnt going to do anything about it or report it to anybody and handed him a hundred dollar bill. of course he was hurten for money so he took it. i dont trust osha for anything. period.

And Archie? Yeah, I'm sure she has been captured, and they are implanting some form of hush hush device that will track YOU down, because you are getting too close to their secrets! Next time she posts, it will undoubtedly jack into her system, register your IP address from your posts, and the Men In Black will be at your door within minutes!

That was a nice way to pay Homage to your friend. Unfortunately with everyone knowing the current security situation at NSH, that place is going to be picked clean of everything not tied down. I hope the cards are returned but unless something is done to prevent them from being taken again, the same thing will happen. Maybe bringing some clear lacquer and putting a couple coats over them would help.

Yeah..I was there today..There was only one guard. The SCC car was parked in the very front of the hospital..no one in it. There was a state cop doing radar right near it..Then there was a white suv parked facing kettle..as martin said.. Easy in..easy out. However..this guard that was on today seemed to have a lead foot compared to the slow poke's that used to drive the grounds..on more than on occasion the guard blew by us at 40mph. haha

Dude your way off...Murphy security has 1 guard for the Norwich side of campus. 1 guard. 1 vehicle.
the Preston side has 1 guard from SSC remaining. 1 vehicle. so its 2 different Co's working the site for now...abt 3weeks till a final descision is made. and the chiller is the bathroom only. its not staffed any longer.
those are facts. so get your shit straight...and a 93$ ticket isnt exactlly trouble is it?
and we have been in a few times since new guard rotation began...easy walk in and out...

‘Ghost Hunters’ going home
Reality TV crew wrapping up work at former mental hospital

Tali Greener/ NorwichBulletin.com
By DEBORAH STRASZHEIM
Norwich Bulletin
Posted Mar 12, 2010 @ 12:02 AM
Last update Mar 12, 2010 @ 10:22 AM
Preston, Conn. — The reality television show “Ghost Hunters” filmed Monday, Tuesday night and Wednesday night at the former Norwich Hospital property in Preston and gave the town a location fee of $4,000.

Kent Borner, chairman of the Preston Redevelopment Agency, said filming is nearly complete, except for one day of filming outside. He does not know what, if anything, the ghost hunters found.

“I know for sure they were in the administration building,” Borner said. “And they were talking about getting into the tunnels.”

He said the crew may also have gone into the Ribicoff building, where medical procedures and operations were performed. The Ribicoff was also the site of the hospital’s morgue.

The former Norwich Hospital has been thought for years to be haunted, perhaps by the ghosts of its patients.

“Ghost Hunters” premiered in 2004 on the Syfy Channel and investigates paranormal activity. Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson, plumbers by trade, run The Atlantic Paranormal Society based in Warwick, R.I., and research various sites.

Supervising producer Matthew Meltzer said the group has completed its investigation at the hospital but now must examine two days of evidence, a time-consuming process.

“They have to review all of the audio and video they collect there. It’s all in real time. They can’t fast forward,” he said.

Meltzer said he hopes the Preston segment will be one-hour long, but it depends on what’s found. The episode likely will air in May, he said.

The Norwich State Hospital for the Insane opened in 1904 and served as a mental health facility for decades. It was renamed Norwich State Hospital in the 1920s and had a population of thousands in the 1950s.

The hospital closed in 1996.

Even the close calls just evade and keep on splorin', don't freak and always keep your eyes and ears on your surroundings, know your next move ahead of time, have options and when in doubt know your way out. I heard from a very, very reliable source on the game plan and will share that story soon enough. But I can't say shit right now, wouldn't count on anything anyway. I will say, if you really want to go- go soon! Happy esplorin' on a shitty note, there is con. Equipment showing up!

Obviously now..that we have a paramedic's point of view on burns of the hands and face..And shining some light on the fact that you wouldn't only be not typing..but defiantly not exploring any type of abandonment what-so-ever..I have brought the conclusion to my head that by BomB posting on other user names claiming he was dead and yadayada..he is simply looking for sympathy..friendship by the people that he feels he should belong with. Sadly however BomB..I have been a user here for over a year..in that time..YOU have made many claims and ruined many people's views of what it is that urban exploration is all about. Talking with others about you I have dug up the fact that you are apparently a fan of tagging and vandalizing sites. Places normal people would go to document and investigate have been ruined by YOU..and your "friends"..this is not a hobby for you..and you shouldn't own a computer..You claim to have been to many places..why dwell here..there are plenty of other message boards ..with a whole new group of people that you can fool. good-luck.

Jack the ripper article.

Sparkles is right..the time frame from this article defiantly does not match up with the Famous Jack the Ripper cases..However..I just find it interesting that a writer would dub this guy as "Jack the ripper" I mean..how can you compare any one killer..to another. I don't believe the two rippers are related in any way..I was just curious if anyone had ever heard of someone being dubbed as Jack the Ripper in our area..and at our favorite asylum.

I don't think he was ever in CT though... And even then, the times don't coincide with one another.

J.T.R. in Ct.

I'm guessing that the program I referred to is based on this book.

No coffee for Sparkles=Big headache

My dad said his 3rd degree burn looked like a baked potato. Anyways, I totally agree about the whole let's ignore bomb thing. Only just to let everyone know he will talk crap and say he'll never leave just like JPT said. Whatever. But he'll post under a bunch of different names. Ignore them all. And there was not enough sun to get 2nd degree burns. Unless bomb's visiting the tanning salon on a daily basis. if that's the case then you'll look like Malibu barbie in no time. (She looks kind of crispy)
JPT- You're right, he doesn't have much of an attention span at all.

John, we all know you are going to attempt to tell us off. At least try and have your post make sense. Otherwise we will have so much more to laugh at.

Jack the Ripper

There was recently a program on (I believe) The History Channel about Jack the Ripper in Ct. I didn't watch it so I can't provide any details but I will see if I can find a link with more info.

Burns

1st degree burns minor skin irritations, are basicaly sunburns. 2nd degree burns are more serious, they involve some blistering of the skin, moderate skin damge, but no significant tissue damage. 3rd degree are where the tissue is basically cooked or charred.

To go about claiming to have 1st degree burns to your face is pretty common, I believe we all get that at one time or another. I myself had some this weekend working outside. But I didnt see where it was significant enough to mention it on a forum. If indeed you had second degree burns on your hands, as mentioned below you would be having problems typing if it were on the portion of the hand used for typing.

I suspect you have some sunburn type burn on your face, with the only major effect being perhaps you'll peel, and some minor area of 2nd degree burns on the back of your hands. I have also seen 2nd degree burns as a result of sun.

So , once we get past the drama drama drama, and the pathetic attempts to garner sympathy or perhaps some incredibly juvenile "Phantom of the Opera" delusion, we have a guy that got some minor burns and wants everybody to know about it.

Okay, thank you, we understand. Get some aloe sunburn lotion, and stop trying to impress the people here, because your rep both on and off the boards is , shall we say, less than stellar. Nobody here wants to kill you, in fact, nobody here really cares anymore about what you have to say, as you have proven yourelf to be less than insignificant.

This is my final statement to Bomb- your comments and opinions have become worthless to me, and as such I do not wish to play with you - go find someone else to "flame war" with. Any other regulars to the board who are also tired of this posters impotent taunts and immature thoughts, I reccomend that we simply ignore him. If we do not reply, his short attention span (And some will know the duel meaning to that) will have him wandering elsewhere seeking entertainment. I expect he will post some incoherant ramblings about me, and others, insults and promises to never leave, continue to be annoying, etc etc etc, as is so typical of this sort of troll. I will not respond. You are not worth my time.

Jack the ripper article.

It's defiantly a local paper..There are articles in the paper with our local towns there..Branford..Groton..Etc.Etc.. I don't understand completely why there would be an article there stating that Jack the Ripper ..of all legendary serial killers would have been housed at NSH..I don't know a whole lot about Jack the Ripper..but I do know he is famous in London..not New London..this paper throws me off quite a bit. I think it would be rude for another insane serial killer to just..Take someone's alias.

Gotta chime in here..

I know a gentleman who was burned in a bonfire, his hands and part of his back. He was in hospital for several weeks.- I agree, there is no way anyone would be out in a few days, so whomever this is posting, and I dont know nor do I really care, is either a rather poor liar, or needs to share what he's been drinking with the rest of us. I hope its the latter, but fear its the former.

At least Archie presents his wild mushroom generated paranoia as theories! So, Blazing Sweat or whatever you are calling yourself these days, next time you go out licking toads, lock yourself in a closet and wait till the pretty pink hippos fly away, before posting more nonsense. Do you honestly think you are slick enough to pull it off? Its rather insulting to believe that most of the regulars here would believe it, without at least some rudimentery investigation. Which of course disproves your post.

So go lay down.

Brian: I'm a fuckin' idiot because I can't make a lamp?
Bender: No, you're a genius because you can't make a lamp.
Brian: What do you know about Trigonometry?
Bender: I could care less about Trigonometry.
Brian: Bender, did you know without Trigonometry there'd be no engineering?
Bender: Without lamps, there'd be no light.

Well I still think they put way too much cream in my coffe.

A) Blaze24=Sweat Leaf (spelled wrong)=Bomb=Diggity Dog=John=DOUCHE BAG

B) Bomb does not go to Seaside. (At least not as often as claimed)

C) If he was a Seaside he was not with a girl. And if he was she was probably 15 and probably there against her will.

D) He must be real unlucky then because he was supposedly burned a couple months ago. (He wasn't) My dad got burned at work and he ended up in the burn unit at Bridgeport Hospital for over 3 weeks. There is no way anyone would be out walking around a couple of days after getting burned.

E) Lots could kill bomb. Would you like me to demonstrate for you?

F) The only new home he would ever have is the crappy little apartment he would be stuck renting if his wife ever woke up and kicked him out.

G) John, stop talking to me. You are a tool. A pathological liar. A moron. A loser. I want my stuff back. I'll be down there tomorrow.

19 more letters of the alphabet. Should I keep going?
