I Summon Thee
This beautiful, rural farmhouse has lived two completely separate lives, up until just a few years ago, it was owned by a farming family who worked the surrounding land for generations. They sold the property which was then bought by an investor.
The farmhouse was then painted all white inside and rented out to multiple people, one of was an older lady who is a writer. But there was also a couple that lived there, let's call them Lisa and Jeff and this is where things take a turn for the worse!
Both Lisa and Jeff have had problems with the law, Jeff has spent time in prison and their children were also taken away by child protection services.
There were many documents left in the house presumably because the tenants left in a hurry, one of which was a warrant to search the home for evidence relating to a crime that Lisa had committed. The search must have been successful because Lisa was charged with identity theft and was apparently out on bail. That's not all, there was also a restraining order against her for another woman, maybe one of the people who's identity she had stolen. This also could explain all the mail in the house addressed to other people who didn't live there.
Jeff's trail mostly ends here but from what I found he is in a new relationship and has hopefully left his life of crime behind. Lisa however hasn't changed, more recently she has been involved with some of the highly publicised car thefts that have been all over the news the past couple of years. She was one of many people charged related to a bust involving the recovery of hundreds of stolen cars worth millions of dollars.
Lisa is now living in another province, she has a new boyfriend and together they have continued to get into trouble. Just a few months ago, the two of them were caught trying to leave the province with many pending charges, one of which was again, identity theft.
The investor had owned the property for just 2 years but was already listing it for sale for about 5 times the price they paid for it. Obviously nobody was interested in purchasing the house and land at that price, so it has been on and off the market a few times at various prices, including one as low as $2.

Crazy amazing but disturbing place. I can’t handle any animal cruelty so to imagine a pet left behind makes me cringe. The brick work on the outside of the house was stunning and didn’t look to be crumbling. I can’t imagine having the wealth to lovingly restore such a property. Dream on right!! Real strange that those rooms were cut off from the rest of the house. The basement just plain creepy. Incredible woodwork. Sad to imagine it destroyed. Soon there will be no farms left. Thanks James for sharing this incredible weird and eerie space.
Yes, that one room at the end was extremely disturbing! So I think the reason the home had separate sections is because they were separate apartments and there were exterior doors for all of them. Glad you enjoyed it Karrie and thanks a lot for your comment!!
Chaos! That's the word that describes this horrible house. It's also very sad to see that anyone would live in those conditions. Let alone have children there. The actual building must have been very nice in its prime. James, I am really liking the drone footage. Great coverage of this property.😀🌺
Chaos is an excellent way to describe it! I am sure it was a lot nicer when the previous owners lived there. The landlord really did a disservice to the home when they whitewashed it, took all its character away but at least they didn't touch the outside! Glad you enjoyed the drone footage and thank you very much for your comment!!
Yes James this is a very Creepy house and also the story of the occupants is very, very Creepy, great explore! 😯
Glad you enjoyed it terry and thank you very much for your comment!!
Hi James! Waow, what a place. Wasn’t expecting it to have such a chaotic backstory. It looked lovely from the outside and I’m sure the interior was great at one point in time. It’s not bad, clearly, but the wood has obviously been painted over. Poor kids having to live in such rough conditions and I hope they, as well as whatever dogs or other pets they had, are happier wherever they went. Some people don’t deserve to have kids or pets. The Prison Break dvds are kind of ironic! Thanks very much for the video!
I really didn't expect such an interesting story to come from this house either. I don't think the kids actually lived there, the address for that document was for a different location, either way, not a good family for them to grow up. And that is a very good point about the prison break DVDs 😂 Thank you very much for your comment Stephanie!!
@@StaticSpaces you would wonder how people like that were able to get a house like that. Don’t think I would want to know!
There was some nice wooden furniture left behind! Nice staircase even though it’s painted. The sauna was definitely an unusual find. Cute little sun porch! Nice piece of property. Surprised no one bought it for $2.
Well $2 isn't the selling price, it's just an advertisement to get people interested in the property. It's the same as an auction that starts a bid at a fraction of the value for the item, then if the reserve price isn't met, it doesn't get sold. Thanks very much for your comment!!
James this place was so pretty in it’s day. The brick work outside the trim woodwork inside. I can picture it before someone painted it all. I’m gonna say something that some renters aren’t gonna like, I worked for a couple of multi housing companies. I was a property manager. The first company I worked for were tight wads when it came to turning apartments and repairs. Some renters left those apartments in terrible shape. Then I worked for a larger company that did what needed to be done when turning and repairs. The apartments were nice. The way some renters left the apartments was terrible once again. Renter could have done this
and having owners that don’t repair or replace properly also add to the chaos. Not all renters left their apartments tore up and filthy, but way more than you would think did! This could be renter damage? Whatever animal it suffered . So awful and sad. Once one of my tenants went to the hospital and her dog was left in the apartment. After a couple of days I heard it cry so I called the police (you can’t enter without permission)I could not locate the emergency contact, I went in and the poor baby had his toe nail caught in the bed spread . I cut the dog lose. If you rent always make sure your information is up to date like emergency contacts. Animal control came and got the dog.
Problem renters are definitely not the norm but the few that do cause problems always make themselves known. The landlord in this case was also not fulfilling his side of the agreement. I think there are just some people in this world that are very entitled and no matter what they do, they will always create problems for themselves and the people around them. It's scary when pets are left to fend for themselves, I'm glad your story had a happy ending for the dog! Thank you very much for your comment Cee Cee!!
The ghetto kitchen-that was spot on. Pretty sketchy past that house has. Sure could have been nice. Very strange layout. The basement was creepy!! You spent way more time there than I’d ever have the courage to. Very interesting explore.
So many strange things going on at this place and honestly, I felt creeped out the entire explore. Glad you enjoyed it and thank you very much for your comment!!
Rest assured that room with the dog bowl was just where the dog lived when the occupants were there, i would say for sure.
I like to think so but there was something off about it. Thank you very much for your comment!!
Thanks for a great tour of this home James. This was a very creepy house though, considering that a criminal once lived there makes it sketchy. Also loved the drone footage too. So sad to see how people lived in those disgusting, horrible conditions. I'm sure this once used to be a nice home back in it's day. Thanks again James. Much love and stay blessed🥰🤗😇❤🤞👍🙏🌚🌞🌟
I felt creeped out for the entire explore to be honest and at that point I didn't even know the full history of the occupants. Really glad you enjoyed it Lisa and thank you very much for your comment!!
@@StaticSpaces Your welcome James. I would of been creeped out the entire explore too, especially knowing that a criminal once lived there and not knowing what else has gone on there with the occupants. Glad you didn't run into anyone in there like squatters or whoever. Take care😊
I still say Squatters were there, possibly acquaintances of Geoff & Lesa. The entire house including the Yard looks like a city dump. Sad for the Children forced to live in this chaos 😢
I still agree with squatters, since the home has continued to deteriorate after my visit. I think the criminals must have been official renters though since all the police documents had the home as their listed address too. I'm sure there is more to the story but we likely will never know the rest of it. Thank you very much for your comment!!
What a house, the secret rooms give me the creeps. Can’t wait to check it out.
That secret room is probably the most disturbing thing I have ever found in one of these places. Hope you enjoy your visit and thanks very much for your comment RP!!
Love the video Brother, I'll be on that level one day! I see what you were saying in the mansion 😜 🤍
IDK, I'd say you are at a higher level, you get way more views than me! Thanks very much for your comment!!
Oh goodness what a mess! Every single room looks like a bomb went off in it! That would take months to clear out all the garbage and clutter. The outside of the house looked nice but when you went inside 😮yikes! It looks like the kids didn’t have to well, poor kids. I hope they are doing better now. This is one creepy house. Interesting video.
Yes, some strange things have definitely been happening at this house. Thank you very much for your comment!!
Very interesting story for sure. Really nice house back in the day!👍
I know right, I'm just glad the exterior is so well cared for too. Thanks a lot for your comment!!
Cool video bro! The outside of house does look creepy! ❤️🤘👍
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you very much for your comment!!
Basement is nice needs to be cleaned up, all trash thrown away, leaks fixed and could be a nice living space again.👍
With a little bit of work it could be a really nice home again!
The outside of the house is incredible. Its too bad it has such bad things attached to it. I cried when you were showing that last room, poor animal...
Ya, seeing the outside left me speechless when I went inside but the stories made up for the white walls. I agree with you about that last room...anyone who treats a pet like that is disgusting. Thank you very much for your comment!!
Hello James 👋I’m watching the video now ❤️Nice location too 👍
Glad you are enjoying it Fawn and thanks a lot for your comment!!
You are so welcome James 👍❤️😎
Be safe and careful.😊👍🙏
Hi James I was watching your latest video it's really interesting but there was a photo you looked at on the floor with 5 children and a man wearing a suit and tie the time stamp is 35.40 the man in the pic was called Keith Chegwin he sadly died a few years ago. Keith was a children's TV presenter many years ago in the UK. Hope you are well keep up the good work.
Oh very interesting, so that picture was on the back of one of those magazines from the 80s, that photo was taken like 40 years ago. Thank you very much for your comment!!
The 80s is about Keith was on TV
Thank you for your reply
The place needs to be sold and all cleaned up and issues fixed to be lived in again.
For sure, but I think the owner would have to decrease the asking price a bit to sell it
Wow.... What a story behind this one! Thanks for all the digging you did to give us the details on the house and of course the people who were staying there. We found it very interesting to day the least! 👍
Glad you enjoyed the backstory and thank you very much for your comment!!
Good afternoon. Good to see you again.😊👍
Thanks very much for your comments!!
I had been missing your videos alot Due to Health im thank full to be alive today? Love ya Static Spacen miss ya.your old but new find Barbie
Glad you are feeling better and are now able to catch up on some of the places you've missed!!
Thank you so much.Yes am doing alot better.@@StaticSpaces
That house was a nice house at one time. They obviously were doing something illegal and I feel so bad for the kids. Some people just aren't good people and don't care about their children and what hell the little ones go through.
Ya, it would not have been a good household to raise children. Thank you very much for your comment!!
You mentioned the house had sewage problems,maybe the toilet had overflowed and thats why it looked that way?
It could be, although it looked like they had some issues with the wastewater pipes, the one room had all that black piping layer out on the ground. Maybe they started to fix it, then gave up? Thank you very much for your comment!!
When a search warrent is made ! This is how your home would look afterwards a freaking hellish nightmare. I knew a family that had their place searched there was nothin untouched even broke the bath tub .I seen it I hope to God i never to see that again in my lifetime?
I can believe it!. Although unless everyone moved out right after the search, I doubt that's what caused this mess. Thank you very much for your comments!!
That's one of the weirdest houses I've ever seen. Maybe one day she will be caught and pay for her misdeeds.
That's the funny thing, she keeps getting caught yet somehow never seems to spend much if any time in jail. Thank you very much for your comment!!
Thank you!!! ❤❤
You're welcome and thank you very much for commenting!!
Those cases of kids magazines could've been from a defunct Store Or Mail Order Business.
Oh that's a good point, you could be right and they may be related to the credit card receipts in the one room too. The magazines must have been from the previous owners. Thanks again for your comments!!
Wow this was truly a messed up one. So full of mystery. Only if the walls can talk. The things the walls could say. There is so much stuff in this place. Im truly amazed that a house like this is in this shape. Is this on a historic register at all. Another amazing explore JH. Big Hugs. 😊😊
P.S. I hate them wooden utensils too.
And there used to be even more stuff that was thrown into a pile out back. Still a lot of questions left to be answered but it was an interesting explore. No, I don't believe it is protected. Thanks very much for your comment Kimmy!!
Incredible video, great job!
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you very much for your comment!!
Anytime you see bedsheets on the windows you know there is going to be problems.
Hahaha, that is very true. Thank you very much for your comment!!
What mysteries lie within these walls. ❤
It was an odd location, that's for sure. Thank you very much for your comments!!
Another great video.
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you very much for your comments!!
This is James Barrow this house can be saved and fixed up and can be remodel
For sure. Thank you very much for your comment!!
Very nice house but a waste ove the land also thanck you
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks a lot for your comment!!
I’d never even eat with wooden cutlery for the reason that you can get splinters in your mouth. I’d use it for decor instead of using it for eating.
The problem is, Canada banned plastic cutlery not that long ago, so when you get take out etc, all they can give you is wooden cutlery and it's terrible! 😂
Wow 😳
I can only hope that the kids never go back to these people 😔.
So much disgusting living situations in this once beautiful historic home. The outside of the house design was beautiful I just love that design. Sad nasty criminal people destroyed this house.
😞. Maybe squatters were there but I think most of the nasty conditions were the idiots renting there in my opinion. Everything is destroyed. Horders it looks like as well in areas. Maybe just nasty people really.
I have heard from friends/ coworkers that rented homes like this to people that they destroy it every time and it's expensive to fix and takes months to get them out of the house. I as well have been on a Hoa board and renters did the same thing to every house in the subdivision that was a rental. I am NOT saying ALL renter's are bad. I have rented apartments and know others who do not destroy another person's house or apartment.
I guess some people are just trash and criminals and nasty 🤢 who have no respect or care for anything it appears.
Thanks this video was absolutely interesting and a reminder to me not to rent a house. I would go to jail hunting these people down lol
Crazy yet interesting video ❤🎉
They might not have been renters... Possibly inherited Grandma's House💁🏽
@@SharonJones-ql8oy
I thought he said they were renting the house in his information but I could be wrong it doesn't matter really. If it was family members that's even worse they destroyed this beautiful house in my opinion. 💁
Well I think the vast majority of renters are not like these people were. We often hear these stories because they are not commonplace and if they were, they wouldn't be news. Either way, it is still disgusting to go through life like that. Thank you very much for your comment!!
Hi Sharon, the home was definitely being rented out, I spent quite a bit of time trying to unravel this story. Thanks for your input!!
@@StaticSpaces
You are correct sir.
I appreciate your time in researching information it's fascinating to hear the back stories. I also appreciate your efforts in finding these places and sharing with us all .
I am almost caught up with watching all your videos and I am subscribed as well, I don't want to miss a adventure!
🙌🙂❤️
Wow, it started out like a nice house, over looking all the scattered stuff and then it just got seriously weird. Kind of freaked me out. Not even being able to sell the property for $2 says something about the vibe potential buyers probably get and the monumental job it would be just to clean all that garbage out. The couch looked like a dog tore it up and the one spindle in the middle landing looked chewed on, so they probably locked the dog in the one room. All the mail from so many people, the woman was probably stealing peoples mail.
There really were a lot of strange things going on here...I don't really understand the mail thing personally because I don't think that's classified as Identity theft. Either way, not a person you would want to befriend in real life. As for the property being listed for $2, that's not the actual price it would sell for, it's just a marketing tactic agents and sellers sometimes use to get people interested and sometimes create a bidding war. They would have a reserve price they are looking for and not accept any offers below that.
Thank you very much for your comment!!
@@StaticSpaces I agree, I wouldn't want or need a friend like that. The sellers should at least make an effort and clean the place up and do something with those weird rooms. I don't know how garbage is dealt with in Canada, but I am sure as here, it is very expensive dumping that much. Too bad, it is a nice house for the most part.
Yes, it gets very expensive here to dump garbage as well. Honestly though, I think most people interested in this property would likely buy it for the land or an investment only...so the house probably isn't even important to them
Watching ❤
Thanks a lot, it's very much appreciated!! Hope you enjoyed it!
@@StaticSpacesI sure did! And if you see random old views it’s me watching , I can’t help but to binge watch all your old videos as well and that opening song is everything ❤❤ Your greatest fan from Texas
Really glad you like the videos!!
I would think even with squatters in there they would still have to get a search warrant
I think so yes but then again I am no expert. Thank you very much for your comment!
I wish ppl would stop painting the whole house stark white
It errases the spirit of the house and replaces it with a feeling of steril instittutionalisation. .
I couldn't agree more! Thank you very much for your comment!!
Farm could be fixed up and be a really nice place to live again.
For sure!
Peanut butter still good.
Hahaha, don't think I would eat it!
Wow weird place
Certainly is. Thank you very much for your comment!!
Don't become like Jeff and Lisa.
That would be a very bad idea! Thank you very much for your comment!!
Ugh! Why was I eating right at the moment you opened the fridge! And TOO MUCH WHITE! Lol.
Man, what a mess. Could be a really nice house with a bit of work though.
Of course every time I hear "investor" I get annoyed cause it just means the place will be demolished soon, but perhaps this one can avoid such a fate.
Way too much white! 😂 I don't think it's that kind of an investor, probably just a foreigner looking for a place to park their money in the lucrative Canadian housing market. It probably won't be redeveloped anytime soon. Thanks very much for your comment!!
PS sorry about spoiling your meal!
I would buy the place for $10,000 cash if it was for sale.😊👍
You can't even buy a parking space in this area for that price
29:46, is this old servant quarters?
Oh that's a good point, I think you could be right about that. Thank you very much for your comment!!
😮😢
Thank you very much for your comment!!
is this place up for sale ansd price
No, I don't think it is for sale, but it's a multi million dollar property. Thanks very much for watching!!
