A Visit To the Belgum Sanitarium

Here we are approaching the site from the west. The site of the two buildings' foundations are in the copse ahead:

The first thing you come across is the remains of the adjacent out-building:

Looking back from the other side of the out-building:

The Sanitarium was surrounded by decorative palms that can help you spot the site from elsewhere in the park:

The path leads you to the remains of the Sanitarium proper out of which two large live oaks have grown:

Looking from the back of the Sanitarium:

One of the trunks has fallen making a convenient place to sit and evoke the Elder Gods:

The view of remaining steps to the basement as one sits on the trunk and contemplates the futility of existence:

The view of the fallen trunk from the other side (... or is that The Other Side):

We continue deeper into the site where the shrieks of madness still echo faintly:

The view of the sitting trunk from what was once the front of the Sanitarium. What was that a muffled footstep behind me?

A closer view of the steps leading down. To what Cthonic Abyss did they once lead?

We attempt to escape from the northern wing of the ruins:

Is there perhaps ... light? A way out?

Could that distant hillside ... be my home?

The board marks a way in for future victims:
