Holy Family Home Orpahnage
	This is a six-story building in Marquette, Mi said to be an abandoned orphanage run by the Catholic sect in Marquette.  Most of the windows and doors are locked and boarded up.  The building has odd walls and crevices from being built on over the years.  Inside, there is very little light and it is totaly dark on the lower two levels.  It is rotten and falling apart.  The layout of the building is very confusing; many of the floors have the same rooms and painted the same colors.  There are multiple stairwells and several small side rooms, a dumwaiter, and an open elevator shaft.  Many of the doors on the back of the building open into an open space, as there is no longer a fire escape. The atmosphere of the building is very menacing and depressing at the same time.  Neighboring  houses around the orphanage  report seeing figures of children in the broken out windows, and hear laughing or screaming.  Children were reported to have been beaten and even killed in the building.  One story is that a little girl caught pneumonia and died from playing outside in a blizzard, and her body was displayed as a lesson to the other children.
