    In today's episode, we venture into the deep southern United States to explore an abandoned victorian mansion. This home once held the heartbeat of a family, a father, mother, and daughter named Mia who shared their lives within these walls. The father, a man known for his passion and dedication, ran the town's motorcycle shop. His wife however, was the heart of the home, filling the rooms with warmth and love, until 2003 when everything changed after she lost her battle to cancer. The house became quiet, the air heavier, and Mia moved back home to take care of her father in his final years, as he too began to fall ill. She watched him, day after day, fading before her eyes, until he passed away in 2009. For a few years later, she remained living inside, trying to live amongst the memories, but eventually the grief was too much to bear. One day, in the middle of the night, she left-leaving everything exactly as it was, as if she might return. But she never did. Now this once-vibrant home sits frozen in time, so step inside with me as we uncover the forgotten chapters of this family's story, preserved within this abandoned mansion.

    This house reminds me of a friend's house that she inherited from her parents. The family had lived there over 50 years. Unfortunately, she couldn't afford the taxes and upkeep over time, so the place was sold. It now houses college students in apartments.
    But the sad thing was she had so many antiques and interesting pieces she collected over the years. Her relatives came to help her clean it out, but they couldn't seem to distinguish the good stuff from the junk. Lots of good stuff went to the dumpster behind her house. She said she heard people rummaging through the dumpster all night.
    Eventually they got her moved out. It was a lot of work. Her brother, unofficial head of the fa.ily and an antique afficionado wasn't there for the cleanout. He had a work conference. Which was sad, as he could have led the family through it better. She didn't talk to her family for two years. The way the clean out was done it caused a lot of hard feelings. I would have helped, but she didn't tell me she was moving. Unfortunately, no sale was planned and most of the treasures went to the junk or lucky finders. It was sad, as it was like my home away from home. I miss visiting her there. She bought another house outside of town, but out of my way, so I don't get there as often. I think her hoarding tendencies are worse now than they were before the move. So that didn't really solve that problem. But her dad's treasures are gone, comics from WWII, etc. Sad.

      Eh…I would disagree. I just stumbled upon this via Reels. Wanted to see how his UA-cam is different than the Reels. Issues I see 1) He sounds like he is majorly ill with a head cold and needs to blow his nose! It’s hard for me to get past.
      2) He is very young. He isn’t actually explaining anything nor is he knowledgeable about anything.
      3) He constantly states the obvious.
      4) these computers are OLD. Not 2013 old. This house was abandoned before 2013 as claimed. The clothes are old too. Everything including decor is from the early 90s.
      5). He is literally describing what he sees not giving any real history, isn’t actually knowledgeable about what he is looking at. Claims things are additions, talks stupidly about how bedrooms are on the ground floor when someone is elderly-and even doesn’t understand how blind oxidize to yellow if left (he says they are yellow 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 when describing a bathroom). These are just a few examples but it goes on and on and on.
      6) so while this video might be good for kids or teens-this is giving really no real information to any adult person. Something that would be good is if he actually researched old houses, knew about builders or how things were done back then in the true sense. Something with some real content with actual real info in it…not just some teenager breaking into house and taking videos of it which he narrated with things every other person can observe with their own eyes.
      7) this house looks exactly like ALL of the houses in my neighborhood growing up. Try putting Otis Street, West Newton MA into Google Earth and take a tour of the neighborhood-not a mansion in my opinion. Just saying,

    The covers on the fireplaces were put in place during the summer to keep the heat out. As small as the fireplaces are they probably used coal for heating. Lot of antiques/near antiques in the home. The last sewing machine you mentioned used a shuttle instead of a bobbin. Shuttles weren't used after 1960. However the machine there looks to be much older and probably a treadle machine (foot power). There are still a lot of nice items in home and hopefully someone will save them as I'm sure at some point they will demo it, which would be a shame. Also notice there was a wedding ring quilt so the older woman probably did quilting and under all that stuff there was probably a quilting frame. What I didn't notice and maybe you just didn't show it, were table lamps, which would have been unusual. It's a very nice home and will take someone who want to restore a home, but even then there would be a lot of cost involved should they be able to pick the property up for almost nothing. Great video. Thank you for posting.

      Thank you so much for your incredible insight and for identifying so many of the items in the house! I didn’t realize the fireplace covers were used to keep heat out during the summer-that’s fascinating. Your point about the coal heating and the treadle sewing machine is spot on, and I had no idea shuttles were phased out after 1960. I agree, the wedding ring quilt and possible quilting frame really add a personal touch to the home’s history. It’s a shame we didn’t see any table lamps, as they’d certainly be an interesting detail. Thanks again for watching and sharing your expertise!

    This may have been a former dining room. (Partition in kitchen cutting room in half likely added later. The door you see at 10:35 leads to another room that is situated between this room and the kitchen. That room also might have been a dining room (we don't see this room).

    The fireplace is NOT bricked up, that is original to the time period it's also how the home is heated. It's not like fireplaces of today where people just sit and watch the fire and relax.
    Do a little research on the places you explore. Research the types of architecture and the common decorative styles for the type of home, the era plus what more elite would have vs what common people might be able to afford.
