    Hi Urbandoned. I live locally to this beautiful building and have been lucky enough to explore it a few times myself. I have some information about it that you may not have known. Basically the last owner was this old guy who collected art and had a vast collection. Anyway, sadly one day some men broke into the house, tied him to a chair, battered him, tortured him etc and stole his priceless art collection. It happened in the worst decayed room on the ground floor (if you are taking the main entrance as the big porched one, then it is the furthest room in the far right corner) it is really sad what happened to the poor guy. I also had a conversation with the new owners of the building. They bought it about a year ago now and they are the ones that put the alarm system in place fairly recently. They are looking to renovate it and turn it into a wedding venue. Thats going to take a hell of a lot of work! But hopefully they will be able to bring it back to its former glory. It would make a truly beautiful wedding venue, especially with the surroundings woods and lake! Anyway pal, loved the video and keep up the good work!

    When I saw the first shots of the building I was completely in awe.. It is fantastic, the peeling paint just adds to the atmosphere of the place.. I am never presumptuous but surely the place was in a state before the owner passed away? that floor and other decay is more than 5 years old? Would I go back in after the alarms had gone off? hell yes... there is so much to see..what would I do with the building as a renovation project? Probably a country retreat attached to the Golf club or something in the hospitality industry.. wedding venues, conferences etc..One thing for sure this place needs some TLC and bringing back to life for future generations to enjoy... another great video you never fail to get it right..I enjoy your work.

    What an astounding place. It would be wonderful to see it restored to its former beauty.
    The one really encouraging thing, even though it was a pain for you guys, is that if the alarm system is active someone probably still has plans for the place.

  • @tornadochasingsiege

    Theres a way to tell what type of sensor it is, If it has a red light it is a motion detector which can be passed easily by moving very very slowly, if it has a blue light don't even get near it, it is a PIR which detects heat and theres no way to pass it other than going around it. If it has a red and blue light you best pray because its a combination of a PIR and a motion detector, if it has a red, yellow, green light it is a motion detector and the different lights indicate what alarm level it is at, if it is green your fine, if it is yellow you best slow down your pace, and if it is red it has been fully activated and will trip the alarm.
    The one you guys were struggling with in this video at the stairwell was a PIR, and it was detecting you when you first saw it, but it wasn't seeing enough heat to trip it in the first place, but when you got close to it, it detected enough heat to trigger, and another thing about PIRs is they are all different, theres ones that can detect your from across a warehouse its just the ones you guys encountered were most likely cheap ones that couldn't detect far.

    • @Urbandoned

    It does look a bit like a Hammer Horror movie set, though the only scary things are the collapsing floor and the banshee screams of those motion detectors! The 'kid's bedroom' looked very cell-like, even if the window hadn't been boarded up. Beautifully framed eerie shots of the interior. I know (and respect) you don't do jump scare fake outs, but this was a creepy watch for Halloween!

    Great video! What would make this mansion amazing because of its secluded countryside location and beautiful architecture, would be to renovate it and turn it into a luxury hotel.

  • @PaszekoYT
    @PaszekoYT Před 3 lety +1

    I don't think this type of architecture is worth saving. The building lacks of proportions. It was made to look like a castle but it has to be done very carefully with a sense of taste to not make it look "over styled". For me this is is a 1800s version of the Italian style mansion you covered in one of your videos.
    Anyway that's just my opinion, good work guys I really enjoy your videos👍
