Finally getting around to posting something!
Well, I have been gathering pictures for several months and I feel like I have enough to share with everyone.
Please go to my gallery, here! for some of my photos. Each is followed by a little blurb that tells a little about it..... There are at least another ten or so that I have yet to put in the gallery so, when I do I will certainly let you all know! Please enjoy and thanks for looking. :)

PS. My icon is also a photo I took....On my cell phone. I'll post a bigger version sometime soon.

Will you jump in?

(centralia is the abandoned mining town the movie was based on, for those who dont know.)

Hi, I'm new here. The idea just seemed genius, and the moment I found the community I thought of a good few places I could take photos of. However, the weather was too miserable to persuade me to go too far, so far now enjoy what little I have. :)

I believe I have found the inspiration behind the paintings in the church in Silent Hill 3- some of the religious works of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio. Not only the almost baroque lighting style, but much of the imagery and even poses carry over astonishingly well.

I haven't found anything that looks like Birth or Faith, but the rest seem similar enough to be worth pointing out.

[X-posting to my journal]

I took these photographs over the weekend, of an abandoned factory (at least, that's what I'm assuming it is) in Southampton, UK.

I couldn't get as close to the building as I would have liked, due to the place being fenced off and (according to signs placed on the gates) under 24-hour surveillance, so I had to take most of these pictures by holding my camera through the bars of the fence, but I think they came out okay. :)

Now for a few more photos, taken today, at the scrapyard in my local area. I have previously posted some photos of this place - most prominently the seemingly abandoned garage/house in the middle of the yard, both here & here.

There were also lots of discarded toilets, sinks and baths all over the floor outside this building... except I didn't photograph those. Maybe next time.

Oh, man, guys...

Second Picture in this post.

Does anyone else expect to see a little girl ghosting over this place?

The site is about a small japanese island that has been totally abandoned since the 70s. There are some gorgeous and detailed photos toward the bottom of the page.


This article contains a history of the island:

Some more photos I took in mixed locations around the town I live in, and a nearby village.

( Various locations )

The other day, in a small town in Norway known as Rælingen...

( I swear, you could taste the mist )

The fog that morning was insane; I almost expected weird critters to crawl out of the hedge and attack, as I entered the car D:
Also, pardon the low quality, all I have is a cellphone-cam.

Some more photos. I took these the other day, at a derelict petrol/gas station-turned-garage close to where I live.

This place is soon-to-be demolished in order to make way for some new development, so I thought I'd get some photos in while I could.

Not quite as good as some of my other pics, but they aren't too bad, I suppose. :)

this is my first post here. :) i took some shots of outside/inside of an abandoned building downtown and thought they were SH-esque.
p.s. NOT dial-up friendly
( it just needed to be foggy )

i have more of some creepy looking alleyways and abandoned storefronts i'll post later.

A few more SH-esque shots:

( The rusted device )

( Old building(s) )

( Derelict store )

That is all for now.

Hey gang,

I have an idea for a SH music video, but I need help gathering clips to use (I'm specifically after footage from games 1-3) as well as some gameplay video captures, without any subtitles.

If anyone has a good collection of video footage and/or knows where to access same and would like to help me out, please let me know.

Well, I returned to the scrapyard again today, in the hopes of getting a few more shots of the abandoned building that I took exterior shots of in my previous post.

Upon arrival, I was incredibly chuffed to discover that the large garage door had been removed from this building, allowing access to the interior. So, I crept inside, and took a few pictures:

The next three photos were taken at a couple of different locations:

( Signs n' storage areas )

Not as good as my previous photos, in my opinion, but I still like them nonetheless.

Hello, all - first-time poster here, and I'd like to share a few photos I took whilst wandering around my local area - located in a South-West England town.

These photos were taken in a scrapyard, just a few minutes away from where I live. This yard contains some pretty cool old buildings, some of which appear to be abandoned.

( Focus on doors & windows )

These next two pictures were taken at a nearby power station.

( Signs )

Hope you like. :)
