- This is an abandoned house I explored. While explore I found 1 of the property owners and he told me the house's past. This was a pretty interesting explore. Take a look, enjoy the show and R.E.L.A.X.
Poor Auntie worked all her life for this beautiful farm and no one appreciated it.....she would turn over in her grave if she knew how the 4 ungrateful siblings tore it apart......she left it to the wrong bunch. Thanks Hunter for another great video and for taking your time to let us see everything.
romevicki1 I agree.. some of us would really appreciate the gift this is, restore and bring back to life this wonderful place. at least i would and so would my family.. wow
Absolutely it does, Jessica...and it is sad....she should have left it to me.
I'm young even I think those kids need boot up their backsides, selfish brats. Couldn't agree to anything should sold it and spilt the money four ways instead letting their aunt home full to ruins.
romevicki1 My Great Grandma/ Grandpa had a small home in eastern Michigan. With my Grandma coming from Italy directly, she struggled in school, only knowing a bit of the English speaking. They had their home until about 2007 a home was needed she was overdue, she couldn't remember how to cook how to clean. Grandpa was gone and long gone passing in 1980. Great Grandma passed on December 30, 2016. She lived an amazing life. I was only a young boy when Grandma was Grandma. I'm now 12 and I just love listening to the same Dean Martin songs shed listen to. When she passed my Grandmas daughter was with her when she was on her way out, Great Grammas daughter saying "I'll see you later, Ma" and Grandma replied " I'll be home by then". She worked hard, and lived more. When she passed close members of the family got to go in Great Grandpa/ Grandmas old barn that hadn't been opened since Grandpa passed. I got one of Great Grandpa's old coal mining head lamp ( which ended in this area around 1940 ). I also got one of his 40's cigar boxes, and his one and only whiskey kegs. Lord, I just couldn't hold the tears back. Thank you for reading up to this and I hope you enjoyed it. You have a wonderful day, Sir/Ma'am.
Zappy Nickel Beautiful story. My grandparents came from Sicily, running away from the mafia and killings, they just wanted to live a happy quiet life. I was 8 when my nono past away. I cry when I see their pictures, their dream was to own a farm which they could not because a farm needs a lot of money. I miss them so much.
At one time that must have been a beautiful home. You can see by the layout of the house how lovely and warm it must have been at one time. Such a shame they let it go. When I see these videos it makes me nostalgic for the past. All the picture left behind tell a story... it would be interesting to know what the story tells about thier lives.
Anne B. If only the walls or furniture could talk. ... We will listen to them gladly. I love history I love the past and I feel sad when the kids do not care for their parents house. So sad...m
Anne B. Nothing lasts forever.
wikkahinds Small So true. But interesting all the same.
Anne B. I think that state to take it over and allow homeless families to fixit up and reside in it for free. The family should be fined. Sounds like my greedy siblings don't want to care for our mother but I've spent every dime I have saving it not to mention she was dumped off like a dog at my home 1154 miles away half dead fro. The trip, and you guessed it I'm caring for her almost 4 months now and they want their share. Really.....

I am glad you always explain the fate of abandoned places. Other explorers don't do that. It is often sad to see abandoned places and it is thus good to hear their background story.
+Cybernaut76 I try for most of them. Honestly I have been getting pretty lucky with these last couple of explores! TY
I grew up in Northeast Ohio many many moons ago ...I moved to Florida back in the early 1980's. Back in the late 1970's a friend of mine and I were walking through the woods and wondered into a bunch of old airplanes ..It was on private property .But being curious teenagers we snuck onto the property and climed up into the airplanes to look around ,This Old man came up to the plane and said " You boys get out here !! We took off running .The old man called us back and went over to him thinking we were in trouble ..He turned out to be the nicest guy ..He told us the history of the planes and told us we could climb up in all of them .He told us just don't damage any of them and don't get hurt .And he left us there alone to explore. ..If you look up airplane junkyard in Newbury Ohio on CZcams you can see the old planes ..That was Cool of that man to let us see the airplanes...I found a video called "War plane grave yard on CZcams ..that is the place in Newbury Ohio

Love how you show such small details and take your time. You really do make these relaxing explores.
I can see what you mean about the stuff left behind but he skipped over the fire places the mantel the door trim. He missed that the closet had wallpaper, who ever takes the time or the expense of wallpaper let alone putting it in a closet. This was a fine house in its day. I guess people have different interests.
AGREE
love how you are explaining it the guy and he says why, then you mention an old wheelchair being beautiful haha! You sold it to him for sure lmao
+mike jansen ya i know talk about akward lol. When he said why like that i paused cuz i wasnt expecting him to say that ha.
like anything else all earthly goods will someday rot , decay or burn the only thing that will last is God's love for mankind.
When you walked in, I could imagine a humble little lady sitting in the wheelchair offering tea and biscuits. Probably lonely and would tell stories of the past. You sit and listen out of respect.
So sad, that house was probably built and passed down generations.
You are correct about the railings. An old friend of mind was rehabbing and old house, and took some of the stuff home. After cutting open a wood handrail, it was hollow. And he found 2 gold rings and 2 old $100 bills rolled up inside it!
+metalmoto Wow awesome!
I think the guy was sort of pissed at first but you're such a nice guy and when he seen you weren't a vandal or anything he started being cool with you lol. Good video man!
gamma21285 yep lol
Pretty cool that he was willing to tell you the history! Some aren't so nice, nice one!
539 Productions Hi Matt. How are you?
What we treasure now is trash tomorrow. Those items were treasured by someone at sometime in the past.
eyes are missing in the dolls because their dumb brothers pushed them in like they did mine!, lol
Lauralie Karels My brother stuck a thumbtack in Taylor's left eye of every single Hanson poster I had on my walls in 1997. I can laugh about it now once I force down the rage that tries to boil up to the surface again. 😂
Your videos have become an integral part of my week! 😂 Keep up the good work!
Thank You So much for sharing this.. I'm starting to get Spring Fever and this was a perfect antidote. I also want to thank you for being an honest man and not taking or destroying anything..
+connie Jones That is awesone that is why I do this for people to just sit down relax and enjoy an abandoned video. THANK U SO MUCH!
You are a smooth talker lol, loved this explore thank you for sharing. I'm ready for your next one already
I luv the way u explore, u take ur time, and let us explore with u, that's really cool!!! thank u for that! I've been watching alot of so called explorers, ur the best so far!
I hope u have way , way, more to come!
They hay bales? Snakes 😨 love the heart plaque, that doll looked creepy as hell, great explore. Place looks ready to move in haha 😂
PS Hay DOES decay especially if left out in all weathers like it appears to be, it rots and also can become harmful as a feedstuff if mould spores start to grow in it. It can be used as compost when it's really well rotted and can also be used for haylage (silage) but ONLY if it's stored in plastic wrap so it can keep the moisture in and it smells disgusting when the plastic wrap comes off.The fella is talking bullshit and probably nothing to do with the property, just a nosey neighbour who knows basic history of the house. No way would the owner mention liability and say go ahead as obviously if anything happened he would be in bother. An owner would say something like 'well I haven't seen u' or 'at your own risk' or if he's sensible...'fk off' lol
So you can charm land owners as well as snakes ha ha. Great explore bro. Love the old glass jars/bottles and the creepy dolls 👍
PS ... It's only the main bannister at the base of the staircase that would conceal documents. Usually like mortgage papers, deeds, birth certificates, marriage/death announcements, etc. The top of the newel post would most likely be able to be pried off ...just a cool little fact 😉
You are 100% correct, under the post cap. another place was the fireplace's. sometime's there was a ledge built into the chimney, it was accessible through the fireplace. it was usually 10-12" up, and held valuable's also.
pete I learned this interesting fact while I was on a tour of The Myrtles Plantation in St. Francisville, LA. It's an amazing place... many believe it is the most haunted privately owned house in the US!
My mom was a history major in collage, I knew this by the time I was 8! How cool to be able to investigate place's like this, especially on a tour. I've been in a lot empty/abandoned place's, and I have rarely felt like there was something /someone there with me... I feel cheated!
Pete The Myrtles is definitely haunted, you can't help but feel it. That being said...it is a good haunting. There is no negative energy there, only good. Ghost Hunters did an episode there a few years back, they deemed it haunted as well.
Kelly Slattery My grandmother lived through the depression, and never really trusted banks. She only deposit what she had to in order to pay her bills. She never had a savings account, and was a penny pincher. She never even carried a wallet, she kept her money in a little money bag she sewed, and kept it safety pinned to her bra! She always said she had a concrete "root cellar" to keep all of the food she canned each year. The room didn't seem to be a full basement, but just a little cellar like grandmothers had. I played in that cellar all the time when I was a kid, and never discovered that there was more than just the cellar. My grandfather died a month after I was born, so I never knew him, or how inventive he was. After my grandmother died, me, mom, and dad started cleaning out the house to get it ready to sell. We learned just how much their generation distrusted the banks. She had an old ornate iron bed that had 4 three inch posts, and decorative posts between the corner posts.when we took the mattress off the bed, my mom noticed an area that had been hand sewed that we thought was just a repaired rip. We were wrong, my 12 year old curiosity got the best of me, so I ripped open the sewn area, stuck my hand in, and pulled out a bag. I opened it, and then screamed for my parents. They were shocked when they came into the room, and saw me with both hands full of $100 bills! That was just the first of many finds. That mattress was stuffed, the box spring was stuffed, and the I pulled the decorative pineapple looking cap off the large bed posts, and found more money. Every post on that bed was stuffed with money! She had money stuffed in every mattress in the house, and every box springs. Also every iron bed post had money stuffed in them too! She had money hid everywhere! The living room furniture, cushions on the formal dining room cushions. Dad turned both sofas over, and cut back the lining, and there were more bags hid away. EVERY piece of furniture in her house was a treasure hunt! I mean everything, even innocent looking floor lamps. She had those big tan envelopes taped to the bottom of every drawer in the house! She was good at hiding things because I spent a lot of time there, and never ran across any of this. Then we went to the cellar, and it had an round metal handrail stuffed with money. Mother loaded all the canned food to take to our house, and she didn't find anything on the shelves with the jars, but I was on a scavenger hunt by that point. My grandfather had covered the concrete wall with beadboard before putting the shelves on the wall. I was tapping on the beadboard, thinking that maybe Grandpa had hid some of those 8x10 tan mailing envelopes while he was putting it up. I tapped all around the room, but didn't find a place that sounded different. Then I started tapping the walls behind the shelves, and they all sounded the same....till the last one. All the other shelves had been nailed to the cleats that held the shelves in place. These shelves were not, and we lifted all the shelves off of that section. I pushed on the beadboard that was directly behind the removable shelves, and it opened inward. It was a hidden door to the rest of the basement nobody knew was there!! I found the light switch, and turned on the lights to see two large safes, imbedded in concrete my Grandpa had obviously poured around the safes. The remainder of the room was a wall lined with all kinds of guns, but that didn't surprise me because I had been told stories about how much he loved collecting guns. There was all kinds of ammo for each gun, gunpowder, caps, and a reloader. The other walls were lined with long shelf life commercial canned veggies, and meats. Jars of all kinds of seeds, sealed barrels of flour, cornmeal, oats, grits, dried beans, sun dried tomatoes, and all kinds of dried fruits. My Grandpa hunting clothes, and regular clothes for him and my Grandma. He had even build a functional bathroom, with a full shower. There was a wood burning stove for heating, and an antique wood burning cooking stove. He had bags of coal stacked in on corner, a backup if he couldn't get wood. It even had a kitchen sink, shelves with pots & pans, and shelves with plates & bowls. They could have hid out in that basement for months, and not have to worry about food. But, we didn't have the combination to the safes. My parents didn't want to call a locksmith because they didn't know what might be in there, so we just started guessing. About two weeks later, I was going through my Grandma big Family Bible, and I was reading all the information that was written in there. They used to wright everything in the Family a Bibles. Birthdays, Christenings, dates of marriages, and deaths. In my Grandma's writing, about their children's names, and dates of birth, was an odd notation. It said, as parents our most important job is to love the, and keep them safe. The word safe was underlined, and then there were certain numbers in the birthdays that were underlined. I screamed, and ran into the kitchen where mom & dad were. I said, "I know how to open the safes!" Mom asked what in the world I was talking about, and I showed her the page. The next day we went back to Grandma, we were going to start on the attic anyway, but we tried the safes first. After a few tries of turning this way first, turning past the second number twice routine, dad got them open. Grandpa & Grandma had more money in the safe, land papers, a will, and insurance papers. All my Grandma jewelry, and bricks of gold & silver! 😳😳. I had never seen a brick of gold in my life! We finally got the attic cleaned out, got the secret room cleaned out, including the safes, and found other hidden money spots. My mother grew up in that house, and never knew about that secret room. I missed my Grandma terribly, but she left me with the greatest adventure in my entire life. Moral of the story: Look everywhere, because the older generation was good at hiding things. You never know what treasures you might find!
The beautiful fireplaces with original wood, all the interior doors appear to have either been maintained in original finish or someone lovingly sanded them and refinished. This house had really been loved.
Could you show more of the fire places and utility rooms next time?
That snake and his buddies seem to always be around! Loved the old bottles. And the way you let people know you aren't out to destroy or steal from the property. Cool
That farmer creeped me out, you handled it really well. These house are so sad, I think of the families that once called this house a home. Well done Hunter.
Dawn Berthold I was really glad to meet this man u could tell he has worked his ass off for years!!!!!!!!! he was 70 or 72 I think he said. Thank u for commenting!
it's such a shame with all the homeless in this country and there are houses that are let to rot
It looked like someone removed the old lath and plaster to sheet rock the walls and ceilings way to much work for most houses of this age, you have plumbing, electrical, asbestos and god knows what to repair this is a money pit.
That'd be a great property to buy and clean out. Clean out all those relics, there's still quite a bit there that's salvagable. That 1858 Mason jar is really from the 30's-40's. They sell for $20 or so too.
Most of those bottles are modern 60's-80's but there's probably some older ones.
CoinHuntingDrew agreed! these are the best.
The slate shingles would also get you a great price since they're not normal nowadays and places where they have to follow historic guidelines for fixing homes and etc... would be at a premium (IE: San Francisco, New Orleans, historic areas in almost any state.).
On the dolls, when they lay down, the eyes rotate back to give an illusion of sleeping or closed eyes.
35:35 It's a transom window. Those a very common in older building for ventilation. You can close the door, but still get air.
Even though this house was in bad condition there were some neat things I wish you took time to tape. The wooden front door was different and it would have been extremely nice if you had taken the time to look at the old fireplaces. The front room fireplace had a neat metal decor that I was unable to see any detail as it wizzed by. Those old dolls were collectables. Even if the body of the doll was messed up there are many people who like to take the porcelain arms, legs and head and make a new old doll. The eyes are not really missing they are probably still in the head. Some dolls had weighted eyes that when you laid it down the eyes would close to make it appear as though it was sleeping. The mechanism is made of small weights contested to the eyes with metal wire or string which over time would rust or deteriorate cause the appearance of the doll missing eyes. You should have asked or offered to buy the glass jars and all the porcelain dolls so they can be appreciated by others and recycled. Oh well.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I grew up in a rural area and there are so many abandoned homesteads. This one moved me. When I go back home, sadly, this is some of what I see.
dude he so didn't seem friendly! Oh I take pictures...he said why? I thought oh man Hunters in trouble!
+Barbara Power Ur not a kiddin! I was a little neverous ha but I have found as u know too ha. Honesty and being polite can go a far way. Plus land owners only 2 kinds of people on their property thieves or vandels. Since Im neither people are cool with me. Also I think my age/social skills is a huge help. Im not too old not too young. Thanks for commenting!!!
Country people are a bit brusque...but it's really just that they're incredibly practical. They don't all see the romance in looking at the past like this.
@@slydoll7877 you got that right. My family consists of ranchers from Nebraska. Cut and dry.
That was great, I really enjoyed it.
+Wynona McDonald Thank means a lot to hear that!
The last bottle you picked up was a wine bottle. It had grapes on the side of it. Very nice explore. Looking forward to the next.
Considering everything this house is not that bad it's potentially beyond the point of restoration, but for salvaging material it's a good candidate, really it depend on the foundation and the cells.
I know the owner explain the situation with this house but when you were in that main room with the old wheelchair I noticed signs of rewiring.
Pretty cool old place. It really looks like it could be brought back to life if one had enough money. I did enjoy the tour. The dolls may have been very valuable and some of the jars were pretty nice too.
Great exploration, Hunter. I'm glad you went back for second look at the book. I'm guessing it may be a publication of the National Geographic. This was once a fine Victorian house. The doors and door frames are beautiful and should be salvaged but the rest of the house is a goner. I was surprised to see that the stairs go directly into a room rather than a hallway; I think of that as a feature of houses more like those of pioneer days. I'm not a bottle collector but I can tell that someone who is would go bonkers at this place!
How utterly sad. It's such a shame to see this sort of waste. Oh and of course, you HAD to find a box of creepy dolls. I wonder if they get up and play when there is no-one there? Bwhahaha. Excellent explore. Thank you for taking the time to share. Cheers
+Tell gio omg if they do I'm out! Thanks for commentimg!
Interesting video! Liked the house,the history, and also the outside walk around you did. Nice job!! Now stay safe and God bless😊
The funny part about liability... he wouldn't be responsible about such until after he gave you permission... until then you were liable for any harm to yourself or the property as a tress passer.
You must live in a ghost town. All these abandoned houses you find :-)
SubExploration PA has alot of abandoned places it seems
Great find Hunter. The doors that were open to nothing I think used to lead to a porch or balcony on the second floor and it has fallen off. I like to try to imagine what the houses looked liked when they were in their prime. Keep up the good work.
You made a statement "it doesn't appear to be weather damage" or something along those lines. As you know , probably better than most . Older homes had thin wooden slats designed to hold the mortar like plaster put on walls and ceilings , before what we call chalk board now days . Appears that someone has found a used for the old slats which were or are probably Oak. Before you even made the weather statement I noticed the wooden slats , or what ever they are called , apper to be removed on purpose. Thanks for the video , great video.
This is so awesome!! I live in Minnesota & it's really hard to find abandoned houses anymore. When i was a kid you could find them all the time.
Where I live there are a lot of abandoned houses. In the old days, Black people did not trust White lawyers, and there were very few Black lawyers, so Blacks often died without a will, leaving lots of heirs squabbling in court over an old house. No one wants to pay for maintenance that someone else will reap the benefits of, so the houses run down. I have seen several with a lot of original contents.
+tom jackson makes since
Breaks my heart. This poor lady probably loved her home very much. The ungrateful, uncaring, selfish, self centered siblings she loved enough to leave her home to should be so ashamed. How horrible some people can be.
really enjoying these explorations; you're respectful to the properties and past residents, which is becoming rare for urbex recorders.
The old scale outside was for weighing feed bag.Or for anything in a burlap bag. Old Farm scales usually found in the barn or grainery
thx for another great video:) Another sad house. this house must've had a long happy history. love the old fireplaces-unfortunately got covered/ filled in. yes goshen dairy founded 1920. gorgeous bottles!!
Just started watching your channel. You're videos are very well done. Lots of content and and your filming is easy to watch. Thanks for sharing all your great finds. I'm subscribed!
oh hey been there got the T shirt. ..death brings out the mercenary in people lol!
Thank you a really nice explore, I think it makes so much more sense to front it out and just go and talk to the owners etc when they show up rather than hiding and or running. x
I would call that little concrete, below-ground room a "cellar", where canned goods like veggies and fruits were stored. Hence, the canning jars.
That other space is the "crawl space", there because houses were built off the ground to provide ventilation to ward off rot and mice and rat-types. Also handy so they could check on the floorboards, and later the ductwork, and furnace.
Oh my GOSH!!! This is why you need someone with you to act as lookouts😳🙄😜
In the old days, people kept their deed to their house in the stair case at the bottom of the staircase, on top and inside the hand rail. It should open easy most times. There will be either a piece that swivels left or right on the front of the hand rail or on top of it. Nice videos.. love watching..
capturing history with your photos. thats what I like is seeing . great job
It looks like they gutted the house in search of Auntie treasure Nice explore, thanks for showing
Why don't you have cards to your channel or ever mention your channel when approached by people? I do it all the time on my exploring and media channel. They will be much more understanding.
another great watch,always look forward to watching your videos,love hearing about the history and the old things you come across,again great stuff keep bringing us the vids,whoohoo! all the way from the uk
Another great explore! With all those bottles around, I would guess that part of that basement (now collapsed) was a canning or root cellar? It would be hard to walk away from some of them especially the milk one and the one dated in the 1800s. Cool!!
That house is really old , back in between from 1910 and 1940s, old businesses. and some houses had those kinda doors with little windows on top for ventilation, it was very common back then, so that's an old house.
Those old dolls had eyes that opened and closed. When stored on their backs the strings that suspended the eye balls in their heads rot and the eyes fall into their heads. That's why they appear to be without eyes. Note: store old dolls face down. Less stress on the inner workings and you can preserve the eyes longer. The strings can be replaced with wires buy a good doll conservator.
Really enjoy your videos. You do a great job with the photography & commentary!
i love the creepy dolls so much, they would great in my collection, the ones with eyes missing make a night light with :-)
Sunshine Jennifer Cook the
the old solitary wheelchair sitting in amongst all that decay, was a sad sight to see,I wondered what they would use for heating the house as all the fireplaces were bricked up,and not a sign of a radiator anywhere! a comment was made about picking up a snakeskin being unlucky, that may well be true ,for me however ,as I am petrified of snakes it surely would be more unlucky for you Hunter if the snake was alive!!!! I completely gasp every time you encounter those shed skins ,thinking at anytime the beastly snake would be in a draw or cupboard you open and strike at you,glad to see you wearing gloves ,amazing glass jars and bottles, the dolls would have clues to the factory that made them at the back of their necks,especially porcelain one's.
There was a furnace in the basement and heating ducts as well. Also was an oil tank to the side of the house. So oil heat is my guess.
Great video, Love the doors, gorgeous, was surprise with all the removal, bathroom still good..
attics & loose floor boards in closets is were i've found my best stuff..least this place had some decent door knobs left
That cellar had a porch over it whose ceiling was an open porch for the second floor. That's why the doors on the 2nd floor. You can see the ledger boards under those doors on the outside of the house.
Goodness, i wld give anything to hv 1 of those jars. beautiful, n the milk bottle! amazing!
I just found this channel and I appreciate the time and respect you show to the place *and* to us viewers!
I have a request: : Could you show us the woodwork like the door jambs and the baseboards and the window trim? I'm more interested in the care someone took to make a place look good.
I like to see how the structure was built: Sometimes brilliantly, sometimes meh, sometimes so stupid I can't believe it didn't kill anybody!
oh Hunter, those snake skins certainly follow you around. Many thanks for sharing
+Jacky Hawkins I know its like wtf how does this keep happening in spread out locations in such a quick time like snake skins are juat a theme in my videos tho! Ha ty.
Thanks for posting this nice video. You really took us back in a time machine and brought us back in that same time machine!
- Regards, Anbu from INDIA
I'd burn my house down before BROTHER ever got it.. it's half in my name anyhow.. NOT HIS.
Hope you're well my friend. I hope everything in your life is good. I miss your videos!
Looks like someone took down all the plaster and lath getting ready for insulation and Sheetrock. Tires?
As for checking the stairs, it would be at the bottom of the stair case. The banster the part that has a cap looking part to it. Back in the day you could lift the cap of it, that's where they stored the land deed. It's hollow inside in most cases
Really neat finding those old milk bottles!
You should place all the bottles up against trees, so that no one else or any animal can step on them, and break them.
that hay will contain moisture and mold...very bad for his cows. I grew up on a horse and cow farm
Hey man , were you been ! If you are ok and just to busy making your way in life please let us know . Hope everything's good and your not at the bottom of a well in the middle of nowhere . Thanks and take care .
+George Folkner I AM ALIVE AND WELL , my friend! Had to get some work done on the exploring vehicle. 😎 Thank u for ur concern.
-HUNTER
There is beauty in things that are old and run down. The doors in the house are pretty and the house was I'm sure once a nice house, to bad it was left to ruin.
Thanks for the great video. Interesting place. I personally think that hay is ROTTEN. Nice camera work.
those siblings should be ashamed of themselves....If the Aunt is looking down on them now should be be shaking her head in disbelief and total disgust....Why didnt they just put the property up for sale contents and all, and then divide the money between the 4 of them.....I am also shocked that there wasnt a executor to the will who should have taken charge of this or a solicitor/lawer.
Ungrateful lot the aunt should have left it to a charity instead
I think this scenario happens alot, siblings wrought with greed. Same thing happened in my home town. Parents died, left the house and all their belongings to the children and no one wanted to share with the others, they went to court and still no decision was made. In the end the house was left to rott, the once loved and cherished belongings were destroyed by local kids and everything was destroyed because of greed.
i see they gutted walls but didn't pull up stair steps or look on top of old doors for round plug holes with screws in middle.
"Box of old creepy dolls" Hey if they're glass faced they could be worth some money LOL
For the condition of that house in general, it really isn't that bad. Most likely an investment of $45,000 ( give or take 10 k ) and it could come up to a good farm home.
It looks like that whole side of the house is gone. Down where you were after the convo is part of the basement and that was furnace ductwork.
the doll's eyes are all made of glass, and they shatter in the cold, that's why they fall out,,,,IMHO
also, the aunt must have had diabetic ulcers or bed sores, poor thing, the syringe is the type used to flush wounds. and the big white plastic bottles were like the ones my Mom used to get her vitamin paks in.
Maybe. But a syringe is a syringe and cattle are vaccinated and get antibiotics in syringes just like that.
Imagine being there and seeing the moment the eyes shattered 😳
Not too unusual to have several dolls. Doll collecting was a big hobby. Usually on display somewhere in the home. Some dolls are worth thousands depending on origin and where the porcelain heads, hands, and feet were made. My great Aunt used to collect them when I was a child.
Wow...I'm digging that old, manual drill! That thing is cool, and a rare find! I would of snapped a few photos of that. Even rusted like that, there's collectors that would go nuts to see one, again. Just also proves that those farmers and workers back then must have been strong as bears. No DeWalts back then!
+Einherjar I know right what a thought "wait u had to drill by hand?!" Ha the good ole days!
Haha! Ah, the good life :D
Thxs for sharing, I thought it was cool, a bottle dated 1858 & Carla got married in 1973 & a booklet 2004-2005 Ohio hunting regulations. Can't go wrong in that house.
Nice video Hunter. I watch American Pickers and I'm pretty sure one of them old jugs are like worth 2 hundred dollars. Did you know picking up snake skins is suppose to be like very bad luck ? If I was the aunt I would have made a will and left it to like some place to help Animals then all the others could have fought about what ever people like that fight about. My grandpa was raised on a farm and hate farms big time. He was raised on a farm in Germany. To me I think it would suck to living on a farm dunno.
