The scene is the main kitchen, separated from the barracks-style eating area with heavy gates (I'm shooting through the bars of the gate in this photo, I have one photo of the gates...). Most of the tables and cooking implements/etc are gone, but to the right just outside the field of view was still one of the large cookpots. I believe the central structure was where the chief cooks desk and administrative work was done, and a guard was posted there at all times when the facility was not under lock-down hours. There once were work tables, stoves and ovens lining most of the periphery of the room, I understand. > From: "Stephen J.

Moving shadows in your head or not, there are certainly many lost ghosts that live within the walls of that prison... !! There are more to come in this collection.
