Yup, sure were. We're going back today for a few shots in the morgue (which we haven't found yet, honestly) and as excited as I am, I'm scared witless of going into the morgue, haha. Ghostbusters is my favorite movie, but I don't really know to what degree I believe in the paranormal. That said I love survival horror and movies along those lines, and they have a definite influence on how creepy an abandoned crazy house will be to a person.
I still think I need a lot of work as a photographer, but I'm not so modest I think these shots suck. My favorites are the book ones and the shots from the roof where the low wall goes off into the distance. The one with Deemer in the chair in the hallway was particularly scary, as my back was to a dark, foreboding hallway that was full of hanging lights and peeling paint. To say I get the creeps in this place is an understatement, but it sure as hell doesn't deter me!
Deemer is truly a braver soul than I, that's for sure. He had to leave me once to get a component for the costume he forgot, and I sat for about three minutes by my self by the front entrance to the building... a huge, open lobby with a glass entrance flanked by check-in stations, all the wired glass shattered. The lobby was all marble sheet over concrete, and a good portion of it was missing. You could really get a feel for how busy and alive this place once was, and it really started to get under my skin. I think I was never as glad to see Deemer as I was when he came back with what he had forgotten.
So today we're going to reshoot some of the blurry shots (including the creepy hallway one I mentioned... eeeehhh...) and get some shots we were too worn-out to get to, like the morgue. It should be interesting since there aren't any good light sources down there. Figures.
The rest of the day is going to be general exploring, and seeing the rest of the grounds that we missed the last couple times we went.
