There are some really really good pages out there on DSH. Some with interior photos. Here is a list of sites that I like.
Danvers State Insane Asylum An excellent site that has some really nice interior, exterior, tunnel, and grounds photos. There is also a well done video, map showing building identification, and the author even has a book filled with pictures of DSH. The author of this site is a very talented photographer. This site is a must visit.
David Ramseur's Danvers State Hospital Page I commend Mr. Ramseur for all of the research that he has done on DSH. His site is a great read and for those who want to delve more into the history of DSH, it's rise and fall, this is a great site. Mr. Ramseur is working on a book detailing his work. I look forward to getting a copy as soon as it's available.
Kirkbride Buildings This is a fine site that documents the history of Kirkbride buildings. It has a nice section on the history of Dr. Kirkbride as well as many chapters of Kirkbrides book. The site has a nice gallery of DSH pictures. Both interior and exterior and covers many other Kirkbride buildings. Well worth a stop.
Abandoned Asylum This is a nice site with a gallery of exterior DSH pictures. It also covers other asylums in Mass and around the country. The site also contains a nice long list of books on asylums.
Institute of Urban Speleologic Studies & Archeology A nice little site with some DSH picturs including a few taken inside the Gray Gables. The site also has some other interesting areas that they have explored.
Jeremy Barnard A very fine collection of interior black and white photographs of DSH.
An interesting gallery of pictures taken in the snow last winter. I particularly liked the close up pictures of the Gray Gables. I visited in the summer and early fall. Too much foliage. I am going to have to get up there and grab some pictures of the Gables without foliage blocking the shots, if I can get on the list to visit. Hopefully in the early spring.
The Ratfinks!! Excellent gallery of interior DSH pictures as well as galleries of other interesting places they've explored. Very interesting site, well worth seeing. Nice to see them back.

Some very nice UE picture galleries by Mike Dijital.
Insane Bunkers has a very
nice website up with some great pictures of places that they have visited.
I particularly liked their section on the old Rocky Point amusement park.
Of course, they've got some great interior pictures of DSH. This site,
like the others on the list is.. "Time well spent"
That's it for now, I'll be putting more links on as time goes on. Enjoy
