Just added a new photo gallery courtesy of one of our Facebook Group Members. She did a tour of “D” Building in the Fall of 2018 which was hosted by Detroit Paranormal Expeditions. She was kind enough to let us use her photos on the site. Thanks, Lena! You can view the gallery below, and it has also been posted to our Photo Gallery page.
