This is such a solidly well built house and it's a shame that it's sitting like this.
Please note that when I say Amish in this video, I'm referring to Mennonites who are a different type of Amish and have electricity and other modern amenities.
The 50s i believe . feels like left mid 80s and never been back.
Thank You for clearing that up.
They have cars too. As plain as possible but they do dress like B the ultra contemporary Amish.
Thank you for clarifying that JP
When I was watching the video I saw the freezers plugged in and I was like "what?"
I will give the freezer owners the benefit of the doubt that they are using them to keep food frozen for themselves and/or others. If you would of tried to open them, they would of probably have been locked only because they wouldn't want someone stealing their food. I'm not niave, I'm just thinking that if they were up to something, you would of probably been kept from seeing them in the first place.
The Amish do not have electricity in their homes, so this home must have been owned by a Mennonite family. I’m curious to know why the family abandoned the home. Great video. 🙏 😊
Correct. I did state it's a Mennonite community in the video.
correction: 'some' Amish have electricity, but was used for farming purposes only, not for pleasure (like reading the bible in the evening, etc.). Purposes for cooling, maybe heating, running the compressor that run the milkers, rather than hand milking 180 head of cows. The Mennonites were more than likely to use electricity than the Amish. (Amish community in Kalona, IA use power for their 'grocery' store, but they won't use it for lighting. There isn't a light switch to be found at least in the shopping area. Its closed before dark anyways.
Funny, they'll use power for their sale barns & cafe's, cheese factories, mills, and stores that make money from their wares, and even their barns for milking, but not one bulb or electric mixer in the kitchen. I find that a bit humorous and sexist thing. (mother and older daughters have to boil water for everybody in the house can bathe. . .by candlelight. I think some orders do use gaslighting).
The basement in this house looked like there was a water cooler. It was where that pump was sitting just inside the door. They were used to keep perishable stuff cold. The water in those coolers can be near ice cold.
When I was little we had a cooling tank where the big milk cans full of milk were kept for the milkman to pick up each morning. Our milkman carried chocolate bars with him and would give to the farm kids sometimes and a .lb of real butter for the mom. (no, I'm not Amish or Mennonite, though I had ancestors who were, just a proud Iowa Sod-Buster's Daughter)
The old fashioned way would be a smallish closet like room with steps that lead to nowhere but up. Blocks of ice were placed on the steps, sawdust/straw used to help insulate and slow the melting process and perishables placed on top or between the blocks of ice. You'll also find these rooms in old Victorian homes.
Yes Mennonites have electricity, I was thinking probably because they put the road in the middle of their property.
Could have been shunned to a different area
They could have been shun from their community.
An Amish home would not have had electricity. It could have been Mennonite.
Those freezers running would freak me out.
100% Mennonite community and home
When I lived in PA, one of my dear friends was Mennonite, he drove a pick up truck, smoked, drank beer, listened to country music & wore a cowboy hat and boots, he was a good friend & a good man! I need to watch more of your vids, I miss Pennsy more than I thought!
It just seems a little weird that an Amish or Mennonite family would abandon their house/property, I love the foyer and wrap around staircase, that really sets the house off, and it's a place I'd love to get my hands on, the renovation would be a little expensive but well worth the money and time put into it
They probably sold the farm and those who bought it just wanted the land. That machinery by the barn is the front of one of those giant combines.
What a huge house! I love abandoned house adventures you put on for us.Those freezers definitely gave me the heebie-jeebies
I agree. I was thinking, " please don't open that chest freezer." Then you showed at least two more, power on.
The switch with the socket: that switch operates the socket below it, not an overhead light!
I have never heard anyone refer to a deep freeze as a cooler before, must be a regional thing. I cannot believe you didn't open those freezers! That's the FIRST thing I would have done!
lol he might have exposed a serial killer 😁
@@FrancisWalters-tv2sz
And then his content would have exploded!
Yelling from the sofa ** "Just open the darn freezers !! " Grrrrrr...
Haha
Those freezers are just too creepy 😬😲
What an amazing find, JP! This is one of those homes I wish could be saved. Thank you!
If power is on in that house there has to be a electric meter somewhere in the basement?? Still a mystery as to WHY keep coolers running in a abandoned home? I would have definitely looked inside those coolers.
What a huge house! Rooms are so big. Love the staircase also and the doorknobs/locks are very cool. The barn doesn't look too bad. A shame it's been abandoned. Thank you for showing it to us.
I love this house too. I would love to know the history of this house ❤
My curiosity would have gotten the better of me. I would have had to see in the cooler. Maybe the former tenants. 😮 That staircase ❤❤
I could live there, with obvious repairs.
Guessing the round pit was for a silo or a manure pit. LOVE that open space/fields.
I would have opened it too, for sure.
Me too. So weird all those coolers. I totally would have opened them.
Exactly. He entered the abandoned home what’s the difference if he looked inside the coolers?
@@adambenini1022 Maybe he was afraid about what he will find inside.
Yes. Definitely feeling there were bodies in there. I can't imagine why else they'd have all those deep freezers and still running
Those freezers definitely gave me the heebie-jeebies!😳 Definitely had thoughts similar to other comments...Glad you chose not to open them! Other than that, loved the architectural details of the beautiful front entry door and that gorgeous, curved staircase, all the way up to the attic. Nice that it had a metal roof. I hope whoever owns the property will eventually renovate the place. I know it'd be a huge project, but wow, would it look nice! Also really liked the fireplace and the chaise-style sofas were a nice find, as well. Lovely countryside with graceful, rolling hills. Excellent video!! Thanks for bringing us along!❤
Thanks Diana
I used to have one similar.
The electricity means it wasn't Amish people living there. Some Mennonites still use the horse and buggy and look a lot like Amish. Other Mennonites have electricity and drive cars. That's most likely a Mennonite community.
Glad you didn't run into the serial killer who is storing his bodies in the abandoned house. I was bracing myself waiting for you to open the freezer. I was sure you were going to find bodies. The rest of the house was really cool. My understanding of those three shelf closets is they held two sets of work clothes and your Sunday best. Many old farmhouses have them. The picture montage was excellent as always. Thanks for taking us along with you.
PS. You should go back with a strong friend or two and see what's in the freezer.
I wouldn't! Ick!
Am I the only one thinking that he should have opened the freezers to check for dead bodies?
Geez you could get dizzy in there with all those rooms and doors. Doors galore lol. And the freezers were kinda creepy haha. Another awesome video 👏🏻 Great job! 😊
I lost count of all the doors 😁
@@JPVideos81 me too 🤣
I love adventures in abandoned houses. The staircase was the best part, really liked the ay it curved up.
Another awesome abandoned video JP! Thanks for bringing us along on the adventure!
My pleasure mitch
Had to have been such a beautiful home at one time . Sad that the highway is so close ( maybe that is why it is sitting empty )...Thank you sharing this awesome find ..(.my favorite kind of explore .).💙👍Those coolers are a mystery !
Wow what a great find JP.❤ I bet that was a beautifully plain home back in the day. I wonder when it was built and how many families livrd in it at a time and overall.😮
Good morning Jp that was a big home wow, i love thier simplicity they have in their homes.. that was a huge barn Definitely fresh tracks to.. appreciate the enjoyable tour..have a blessed day
Im so glad i found this channel. I love the video length. I just really appreciate the work put into them
Glad you like it!
Would love to see this home refurbished. Its been beautiful at one time
lol The Fonz! So funny! What an awesome find and exploration JP! I don't think I would have opened the coolers either unless if maybe I had someone with me. lol Seems kind of sketchy though. I wonder what's in them and why they are still being used? I think that house was once really nice, the built-ins, staircase, doorknobs, and locks are very neat and it's so big. I wonder where the bathroom was? I agree it would be a great haunted house. The shoe looks like what I think an Amish shoe would look like, but I'm not positive about that and the Victorian fainting couch is so cool too. You are right, lots of questions for sure! Fantastic photos and great video! Thank you! 💙
Lots of questions, but lots of unique and interesting things as well. Was a fabulous old home.
Great explore. Just as you said Jay, " left with many questions ". 👍🤙
Hey frank, thanks for stopping by.
Awesome video man!!! I love your abandoned videos
Those coolers gave me the creeps. I'd never open them but sorta curious what's in them.🤔. Great video, enjoyed it. I believe it's a good idea to document with someone say if you stepped on flooring that looked secure and wasn't.
Wow, I absolutely love that staircase!! The coolers are a concern though, I’m glad you didn’t open them😮
I was hoping he would open them! ☹️
There has to be frozen dead bodies in the freezers. Every horror movie says so. They all died from the lack of bathroom facilities.
😯😅
This is great! Reminds me of my grandparents old farmhouse. They actually had little rooms set up in the attic to have city folk stay for vacation in the country
What a gorgeous area! Amazing find JP. The house must have been beautiful in it’s day, well built and nice woodwork and built-ins. Those couches look like what were called fainting couches. I love this video! TYFS! 👍🥰❤️
💙😊
Thanks Jay, a few questions but definitely a beautiful home at one time.
Central California watching
haven't been here in a while glad to be watching again
Love going to the Amish Country
just went a week ago to see them. These ppl are hard working and they build everything theirself and grow all their food.
Wow ! JP i havent see an old spooky looking farm house like this in ages. Wonder where the outhouse is or was located? Thanks for sharing this video. I really enjoyed this tour. Thanks.
Maybe the collapsed structure behind the home?
What a beautiful house! Loved the basement and attic! The steps were my favorite! Thank you Jay
My pleasure
Hey Jay! This was a great and interesting adventure, I enjoyed it!!!
I loved the front door with all of the windows and the staircase was my favorite 💙💙💙
My thoughts on the freezers and the barn is maybe a neighbor or a family member is using them cause they don't have room at their house!!!
Thank you Jay for sharing, I appreciate you so much 💙💙
Much love from South Carolina ❤️ xx
May God always bless you, keep you healthy and safe ❤️🙏❤️
That is weird just a freezer is running and no power to the other house
What a shame that this house is in such rough shape. Would be a fun place to live!!
Great exploration JP, that stairway is intriguing. I never seen one that has strange bends to it, and the cooler running to. That is strange, no lights turn on.
Very interesting door handles, looks like that home is 60 years old.
Intriguing indeed
We had the same staircase in our old home in Tennessee. House was built in 1890. Yes, it was a beautiful staircase, but a pain in the butt to get furniture up and down. Our staircase started out facing north and when you go to the top landing, you were facing south. Beautiful, but a pain.
I wish you would do more of these videos. You are very good at this.
Nice video, thank you stay safe. It was quit odd that electric is on and those freezers working!😮
Lost my wifi connection last night so I couldn't watch then , but I did get a chance to watch today . I bet that house was beautiful at one time .like all the built-in cupboards. Great video as always w💙🩵💙🩵
Hey my friend. Awesome video as always. ❤
Wow such an incredible find !!!
The cooler running is to keep the body parts from stinking 😂
My thoughts exactly
Yeah something's best left alone mine your business please.
It is a reason they move and you don't want to know please get out of there.
Great find! The freezer was real creepy , makes you wonder what’s in it
The stairways, winders, and guardrails were not an inexpensive build. Very cool custom woodwork.
I would've peeked in the freezers...i dont have your self control 😅. Great house!!
Lol
Good to see ur vlods missed them and u of course
I love this property. So sad it’s not being kept up. I would love to have that house. Beautiful 360 view.
That was scary...and why were the freezers running? The still shots were great and the video was interesting. Thank you for sharing.
Hey Jay wow that was such a large house with plenty of surprises inside such as the 3rd floor .. the rooms just kept coming lol. I'm sad there weren't a toy making it officially abandoned but at least there was remnants of a Christmas tree. What were in those coolers, maybe suspicious but then again maybe not. It is a shame that its been left abandoned though. There must have been a reason why its been left empty. Thanks for showing us round huni as you know I love your explores. Cant wait until the next one. Take care sweetheart ...
I was hunting for a toy, but maybe next time.
WTH!!! why was those freezers weighted down with a chimney pot and a car battery? Someone inside they didn't want coming out???? 🤔 Love that old barn. The house has some cool hardware and details for sure..I would love to have those old victorian fainting couches. Cool place but having electricity it more than likely was not an Amish home. The house seemed bigger on the inside than what it looked on the outside. ✌
Very strange and unexpected to find those coolers
@@JPVideos81 that was a little freaky to me. Very strange
Beautiful old home! Great video! I would have looked in the freezers!!😂😂😂
I just stumbled onto your channel and glad I did cuz I love this sort of thing!!
Wow, huge house! You can tell that at some point in History, that house was absolutely gorgeous! It's such a shame to be sitting there abandoned. I can't believe the amount of stuff inside, furniture, tubs, e.t.c... vintage clawfoot tubs can sell for as much as a few thousand!
Thanks for stopping by
@@JPVideos81 You're welcome! I'll be watching a bunch of yout videos!
Wrecked house with new freezers that work. Hmmm... Killer's playground?
Really like the house I am sure alot of history is in it....what a nice find...sure it is in the family kind of way since the shed has nice equipment
👍😎 Great job on UA-cam video
Could be a beautiful house....but I need an inside bathroom...lol. Thanks.
hi guy.... (glad you have e bikes,,lol) i'm still following your videos,,, they are so great.
I would love to have that house. All the rooms and that wonderful staircase. And I don’t know if the people you mention hunt. With the trap there it makes me think they did. Those freezers could be full of deer meat or fish, and also frozen fruits and vegetables. And there may have been a indoor bathroom, or two. But it could have a been stripped out. But I just love it, thank you so much.
Some beautiful features. I wonder how long ago a family lived there. The toilet on the porch 😊. Fonz😁😁. Such a shame. Such a waste of at one time a lovely house. Ohhh the freezers, I would have had to peek 😆😆. Love the really old doorhandles. Fantastic video. 👍👍🍀🌷🌷🍀
great video 🏚😢👍
Covered everything but the FREEZERS!
Could bodies be stored in the freezers? I would have looked.
17:41 "it's like a fun house". 🤣You are very brave going in there by yourself and opening all of those closed doors!
Curiosity gets the best of me. Thanks for watching.
Should be a obligation to look in the coolers in case something sinister is going on
I don't necessarily want to discover something that I'm forced to report and then have to explain why I'm there and prove I'm not involved.
@@JPVideos81 makes sense sorry for the comment I was just worried about something sinister you know
@@JPVideos81 you’ve got video proof what you were doing there …. You only live once and tomorrow could never come and a serial killer could be on the loose that you couldn’t helped to stop
Could always finish your exploration, THEN look in the coolers….if it’s corpses or body parts report it anonymously. LOL
Beautiful staircase and entry door. Thank you for not opening the freezer, I have watched too many episodes of NCIS.
Thanks for sharing🏚💜 Hava a safe Memorial Day🇺🇸🪦❤🤍💙 We have a few Mennonites in our community too.
nice adventure JP ...
Great investment video thanks JP
I agree JP, very odd that those big coolers are running. But the light switches don't work. Very old house.
That last cooler you looked at with the compressor on top, is one you will put your big milk cans into to keep those cold.
I notice no bathrooms.
Yeah,and didn't see an outhouse in the back...unless that collapsed building behind the house was it..
@@kimkelly-kline3768 this dude on my Amish life moved to the city took the bathroom out replaced it with a outhouse, in house. Never seen the update but that house had to smell great everytime someone took a ----.
@@kennethwallace4338 ewwwww how crappy...lol
There was a toilet on the rear porch and 2 tubs in the house, but definitely no bathroom.
Old house older order of Mennonite/Amish so they had outhouses
I really wish you would have looked inside at least one of those freezers. Who knows, you may have helped solve a mystery, or two for the local law enforcement. That was very odd that there were multiple freezers, in an abandoned home, where they were the only things with power. The weights on top of each freezer, was particularly unsettling. Thank You for an interesting video. 😊
Or at least reported it to local law enforcement
I would have looked in those coolers. JP no regrets for not peeking?😂😂😂
As much as I wanted to check, if there was something in there that isn't supposed to be, I wouldn't want the responsibility of reporting it.
@@JPVideos81 I see your point Ive watched to much ID TV it's the investigator in me I guess. Maybe just some frozen corn the cobs. 🤔🤔🧐🧐🧐
Like you said more questions than answers👍
Great video, Now Subscribed.. Beautiful house, so hope can be saved & restored. Curious on the freezers, esp still power on.
Dislike traps, horrid what the animal goes thru..
Very interesting!!!!
Some houses you get a feel for why they might be abandoned but this one has me puzzled. Love the staircase and the hidden staircase as well.
great video, i think the round concrete circle in the ground by the barn was probably the remains of the silo. wish you would have peeked in the freezers ...lol...cool explore for sure take care and have a great weekend
A silo would make sense
Was a nice home at one time I also love the stairs
Hello....I just came across ur video on my news feed n I luv the content u have in ur video. I did sub to ur channel.
"Ohio"
Thanks for subscribing. Check my playlists for other content to watch.
That os a beautiful house, even in decay. If only it could talk; the stories it could tell. Great video, pictures, and topic.
I would of peeked in the coolers just to be curious lol another great video JPV
😁
Awesome video JP I love your abandoned videos and all the rest and I love your photos
Thanks
I must watch too much true crime shows.. a bunch of dusty XL freezers brings one thought to mind! 😳 any missing persons in the area?!? 🤔😂
😁
❤❤this house!!! I'd get confused with all the extra doors! I have to say thank you for not opening the freezers.... will it weigh on you since you didn't look? We do love this explore! Thank you for braving all the time for us. It is so exciting, even suspenseful, waiting to see what you see as if we are right there. Thanks again❤❤
I'm sleeping well not checking lol
I think i would be also!!
What a beautiful home I'd love to live there
So sad it sits unloved to me that house could very well get repair very well the land its self is so pretty ❤❤❤❤...
Back in the day, this must have been a roomy comfortable house. From the looks of it I'd say it hasn't been lived in for a very long time. Maybe who ever lived here last built another house further away from the road just to get away from the traffic and noise ?
OK am I only one got creeps knows all of freezers 😂 nahhh I just watch too many horror movies 😂
Sorry I was late to watch but some reason the kids wanted food for supper 😊 miss these kinds of viedos ❤❤❤
Watching from Southeast Texas ( Beaumont area )
It definitely gave off a weird vibe
Check the coolers haha.
Could it be some go hunting or fishing and store the venison and fish? . . .?
I have not seen your videos before. Just appeared in my feed.
One thing that is believed is all Amish do not have electricity. But they do. There is an Amish settlement in Montana who uses electricity in their homes. Some of the women still cover their heads and do not use buttons, but those same women might drive.
The Amish homes I have been in, most do not have closets. They will have hooks on the wall to hang their clothes on. I saw hooks when you first went inside, but no where else, probably for coats. I do wonder about this house truly not being Amish though. Again most will have a great room to hold church services in. It was hard to tell if they had a great room.
Great house. I love the stair case. Too bad an architecture company doesn't buy it to preserve it, as well as the front door frame work. Thank you!
Thanks for stopping by
That highway so close to the house would have made me move.
I couldn’t live that close to a major
Road…
I Love pics of old barns
Wow thank you for taking me with you on this explore? This home worth its wait in time so big and beautiful .What coold be in freezers can be cut up females or missing animals they could do rituals with them. sick i know im sorry for putttin that out there JP.:( Awesome video.
I would not be surprised to learn that the original owners of this old house have all passed away leaving no one to care for the old place.
I love staircases.. especially beautiful ones like this, just gorgeous 🌹
This one was very nice
