This place is still intimidating.
I can’t remember how many levels of the basement there were in this place. But the heavy walls muffled the screams quite effectively.
The soldiers stationed here are totoatlly different from the ones hanging out, half drunk and trying their best to stay away, in front of Lenin’s tomb. The boys at Lubyanka are alert, clean, sober and looking for a chance to use their sawed-off AKs.
