Hmm... that does remind me of penumbra. Except the place looks much more worn down than it was in Penumbra.

Wait a second, you're telling me that underground bunkers and mining operations were actually real? And that at some point in time they had different technologies than ones we use today? I think you've finally lost it, Googol.

Wow those are some awesome locations! Props to the photographer for getting in there!

Underground bunkers always gives me a boner, nice pics.

I took this photo from abandoned bunker I visited with my friend last summer. Very Penumbra-ish place too!

That sure looks quite flooded. Reminds me of that one part from Penumbra Black Plague.

I wish to have an horror adventure game with that locations.

Or you could ask a friend to lock you down there for 2 days, and you'd have to wade through the horror shitstorm your mind is sure to produce.
