Pennhurst's Story:
Tucked away in a wooded area of Spring City, 25 miles north-west of Philly, Pennhurst first opened its doors in 1908 as the “Eastern Pennsylvania State Institution for the Feeble-Minded and Epileptic,” later to be renamed Pennhurst State School and Hospital. Staff did their best to care for residents in the extremely overcrowded facility with meager resources. Lack of State funding lead to staff cuts and poor training, inevitably breeding rampant neglect and abuse. Pennhurst closed its doors in 1987 and has stood unused for over 30 years.
