Okay, peopleses. I've been sneaking about behind the scenes lately (mainly because my schedule at work lately doesn't allow for much else). But! But but but, and but again! I have finally gotten together the page for the Essex Mountain Sanatorium- yay! A whole new creepy place for you to learn about. There are no links to outside sources at the time- my ISP crapped out on me right as I was looking for them. They will be up around Wednesday, June 27, or so.
Unfortunately, this particular sanatorium is no longer in existence, as demolition was completed in 2003... That means no tours are available, sorry, not my fault. Rag on the governing bodies of Essex County, New Jersey, USA, if you're as ticked off as I am. I mean, come on! They destroyed a building that rightly qualified for the National Register of Historic Places, taking with it beautiful original murals and a definite tourism spot... (Come on, admit it... I know I'm not the only one; plenty of you goths out there would find a tour of a TB hospital just the thing for a charming picnic, summer vacation spot, or honeymoon stop.)
Speaking of tours... Those of you who have been emailing me for the tour information of Waverly Hills Sanatorium/Woodhaven Geriatric Center seriously need to just knock it off. I'm not affiliated with the Waverly Historical Society in any way, not to mention I have the owner's email information in plain sight. Please don't be a dork- READ the bloody page before you come whining to me going "But Miss Mousie.... I can't fiiiind iiiit!" Miss Mousie does not react well to stupidity... It's my kryptonite, turning me from "Nice-Mousie" to "Super-Wicked-Villainess-Mousie-Who-Shall-Make-You-Eat-Gym-Sock-Soup". Not a healthy way to go, I assure you. So yeah- all the information is already there for you, use it already!
