Eastern State Penitentiary[views:9844][posts:47]__________________________________________ [Jun 25,2007 5:01pm - notorious_D.U.G. ""] Don't know how much love there is here for the show Ghost Hunters but I just got back from a retreat with the guys from the show at Eastern State in Philly. That place is fucking amazing. Even if you don't believe in or give a fuck about the paranormal the building is awesome. If you've ever seen the show you might've seen the episode with the short cloaked figure thing that was running on the catwalk. We got to investigate that cell block as well as death row and solitary. Crazy experience. I love doing this shit. Just thought I'd share. |

| ____________________________________________________ [Jun 25,2007 6:47pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] I'm going to toot Doug's horn and tell everybody that he writes for TAPS paramagazine because that's awesome. http://www.tapsparamag.com/ |
| ____________________________________________________ [Jun 25,2007 6:53pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Also, I was informed that Steve from Ghost Hunters (the dude with the tattoos) was the drummer for Scattered Remnants. |

| _______________________________ [Jun 26,2007 10:33am - Yeti ""] that place is nuts. i've never been there, but have seen several shows about it. i saw one where this guy had to spend the night alone in the place. that must have been crazy. i fucking love urban exploration, abandoned buildings are the coolest places. |
| _____________________________________ [Jun 26,2007 11:45am - immortal13 ""] Love the show. Been wanting a job with TAPS for a while now to tell you the truth. hahah. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Jun 26,2007 1:27pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Where is this place anyway? Somebody send me a link on http://local.live.com |
| ________________________________ [Jun 26,2007 3:06pm - xmikex ""] Yeah I saw the live Most Haunted Places investigation of that place. I'm dying to go see it in person. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jun 27,2007 12:37am - notorious_D.U.G. ""] fuck most haunted. we tried to interview them for an article for the magazine and they refused, admitting that the show is designed for entertainment purposes only. they stage everything. I wish this was my full time job. it's fucking awesome all the places i go for conventions and shit. |
| _____________________________________________________ [Jun 27,2007 12:47am - ArrowHead is watching you ""] Wow, a big scary abandoned/empty/old building? And you say people go there, and get creeped out? Jee Wilikers! Come back and get me when you see something spooky happen in broad daylight. In a nice neighborhood. With the Ice Cream truck nearby. And clowns. Maybe after you can show me some cool photos, with weird mysterious spots floating about. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Jun 27,2007 8:46am - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] That's not cool. I was once raped by a ghost-clown riding an ice cream truck. |

Jee Wilikers! Come back and get me when you see something spooky happen in broad daylight. In a nice neighborhood. With the Ice Cream truck nearby. And clowns. Maybe after you can show me some cool photos, with weird mysterious spots floating about. thats one thing that has always bothered me about ghost related stuff. it never happens in a bright happy area. thats why i dont care much for Ghost Hunters. its collective delusion. they go wanting to find something, expecting to find something, and are told all these crazy stories. of course a simple sound like the structure shifting is going to sound like a bloody ghost crawling from the depths of Hell. yes there have been some weird things on that show, but again, its a tv show. we cant base fact off of a tv show. most of the yokels they interview couldnt tell rat shit from rice krispies, so its safe to assume that they are basing their judgment off of a lack of knowledge. i want to walk into an old abandonded building and see some rotting torso crawling after me speaking in a backwards dead language. |

| ____________________________________________________ [Jun 27,2007 8:18pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] I'm going to start my own show called "Ghost Huggers". I'm not exactly sure what the premise will be... but it will definitely involve me getting people to let me into their homes so I can set up A/V equipment and run naked through their kids' rooms. |

| _____________________________ [Jun 27,2007 8:51pm - pam ""] I hate that show because it employs Brian Harnois. I used to work with him and he is the biggest idiot I have ever met. |
| _____________________________________________________ [Jun 27,2007 10:17pm - ArrowHead is watching you ""] menstrual_sweatpants_disco said:ArrowHead is ghost hatin', yo. I don't hate ghosts. I just hate the people that go looking for them in spooky basements and abandoned buildings. And take blurry photos. And buy nightvision cameras. And tape record empty rooms. It's really quite sad, unscientific, and spiritually unrewarding. |

Wait, pointing out your moronic attempt at using a tired cliche made me useless? Or was it my implication that ghostbusting groups were foolish idiots? You need to be more specific. Funny, though. Being called useless by a guy who wanders old buildings scaring himself didn't hurt as deep as I always thought it would. |

When I was in the shipping dept my job consisted of getting the "hot" items out and opening and repackaging his items properly. Kid would put a fucking 3,000 dollar circuit board in a huge box with no static bag or proper fucking padding. So, I eventually got him fired, I believe he mentioned it in the pilot episode, or so I was told. My coworkers took me to lunch to celebrate. |
