      It is an unsafe ruin. You would not be so crazy as to spend millions to preserve a ruin.
      The best that can be done is a complete demolition of the site and the land reclaimed for other uses. But there are probably some complications holding that process back.

    This actually made me tear up. Just thinking about all the conversations, laughter and sadness that went through the halls of this home. The music that filled it in the late 1800's early 1900's... This was a place that someone called home, and made many memories and now it lies in decay. It's a very haunting house.

    COOL or SAD Story About This Place...... I used to cut the grass at this mansion when I was a young teenager! The head nurse made sure we got plenty of cold lemonade...... The sad or creepy part is, I was sent to the basement by the maintenance man for a chainsaw file that was on a workbench..... While down there, I saw what must have been the first kitchen in the house, It had an old stove that was heated by a fireplace and some old pots hung from the ceiling or kettles?.... I looked all around the cool old basement till I was stopped in my tracks by Chains hanging from a beam and Chains with Leg Irons on them that were embedded into the stonewall foundation!!! .... Was it for slaves, for freaky sex?, who knows but I never went down there again!! ..... When I asked the Maintenance man, he just said, " What Do You Think, The House Was Here Before The Civil War" ..... Yes, there are graves on the property, I remember 3 or 4 stones and 5 or 6 markers.

We calmly left the building and then saw a door close down the hallway. Left a lingering feeling with all of us on the way home. DO NOT EXPLORE HERE AT NIGHT. Unless you’ve got some brass balls and are willing to be ready for anything to happen.

Possibly a safety hazard in there or maybe if you wanna get scary there was another person (like a squatter who understandably would be scared of hearing strangers downstairs) who is in there and blocked it off so Dan couldn't follow. He DID hear footsteps (squatter trying to check them out, get their stuff together and find a place to hide) and then a loud thud (moving something to block the door), so the possibility of someone in there has some audio evidence.

      Chirp at 7:09- that's a bird. I hear the same noise at 7:16.
      Walking at 8:11- I don't hear walking. All I hear are thumping sounds.
      Woman's voice at 8:55- I definitely hear her. She's saying something with either 3 words or 3 syllables but I can't make it out. Edit: never mind I listened to it harder and now I think the last word that she says is, "baby?" She's asking a question. Edit: Ok I listened to it even harder and I think she's saying, "Have you baby?" I know that doesn't make sense but it's the best I can do.
      Man at 11:18- that seems like a grunt/moan to me. It sort of doesn't sound human either.
      Electric voice at 12:43- I didn't hear it. I really tried, too. I went back to it several times and I didn't hear it. I'm not saying you're wrong; I'm just saying that I didn't hear it.
      Harmonica at 15:35- That could be a harmonica or a train. It sorta sounds like it could be either.
      Woman's scream at 20:29- I heard it. And it was pretty scary. What happened to her to make her scream that loud? I also heard someone mention that a man screamed at 20:36. I heard that too. His scream wasn't as scary. It sounded more like the sound you'd make if someone walked up behind you and surprised you.
      Man saying "guys" at 24:57- I hear it but it's very faint. It MIGHT be Will saying something though.

      Buzzing Bark I really liked his trip out to point pleasant and the mothman TNT domes...very good quality, he could do an intro to the Walking Dead! or his trip to the ghost town that was shut down from lead contamination, I really like his style and the dead mall series is great also, but his dirty rooms with Rick and Will has me in hysterical laughing fits, especially when Rick plays up and eats soap!! lol

    After going and reading the history of this place, I cannot believe it sits abandoned. Over 6 million was spent on restoring this mansion in the 1960's adding air conditioning, repairing heating, and refurbishing many things. To see it look this way right now is beyond sad. A truly gorgeous mansion left to rot 🙁

    @starkiller18 Před 6 lety +23

    that place seems like a maze. I get the feeling it was a much smaller house at first but they kept adding on over time. that is the way the house i grew up in was. It was originally a 2 room farm house from the late 1800s then they added on to it in the early 1900s and again a few more times over the century. the place was in bad shape when we moved in in the late 80s but over the years with some hard work we got it looking pretty great. our house wasn't nearly as big, only about 4800 sq feet and a half acre lot but it was very maze like because of the different additions over the years.

    • @largol33t1
      @largol33t1 Před 6 lety +1

      My parents used to own a house in Switzerland that was VERY old. There was a shed in the back yard and I could tell I was the first in decades to enter. It had so much dust that a massive cloud oozed out when I managed to get the door open. The interior looked like a scene from a horror film with VERY old farm equipment everywhere. Although in a large neighborhood, I suspect a farmer used to own it because it had stuff used to cut wheat. When's the last time you saw an actual scythe? I saw one. I should have taken it but how do I get something like that declared at customs, LOL.

  • @teamhunley
    @teamhunley Před 6 lety +15

    Very sad that so much superior craftsmanship went into that opulent mansion and so much could be saved but it'll probably get burned down. All that carved mahogany, etc. As things like this get destroyed we replace it with what? Dollar General stores and cheaply mass produced homes.

      It's criminal that he doesn't even have 500,000 subscribers. He should be at the 5 million mark by now. His exploration videos are still some of THE best I've seen on any website, not just CZcams. His only competition I think would be theunknowncameraman. But that guy doesn't put any narration in his videos. I'd rather watch him or Dan than Pewdiepie.

My kind of place. That should of never, ever went to ruins. Should of been refurbished. That spirit or sound they keep hearing is probably the socialite that lived there roaming the place. Someone is roaming around. Would love to live there. Wow!
