Before that it was a boys school during a time when hazing was an accepted part of academic life. During these incarnations St. Albans held its long suffering boarders captive within her cold embrace. Held in a grip so tight, that it may have transcended the siren call of death.Full page photographs by the author freeze the asylum in time. In a time when seasoned paranormal investigators came to St. Albans Sanatorium hoping to engage with its resident spirits. Some investigators made a connection with the spectral presences that roam freely there.These are their stories.

Memento Mori The literary cemeteries of the great graveyard and dark romantic poets were littered with reminders of death and the futility of the vanity of man. Skulls and crypts were the backdrop for the agonizing emotions caused by loss and introspection. The works of the graveyard poets and of those who would follow during the era of Dark Romanticism are the inspiration for Boneyard Voice. It is the mournful and melancholy words of Edgar Allan Poe, in particular, that have haunted my own work. Watch over me, The dead, Until the peacocked hearse is gone, Until the last spade of earth is turned, Until you release me to the soil. Three days of darkness Dreadful.
