Urbex: ABANDONED House of PLENTY
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 чер 2015
- Exploring an abandoned house that was left with almost everything behind. It appears to have been abandoned since 2008, the date on the calendar, and the latest date I could find in the house. From what I was able to find out, the lady of the house had passed away in 1999, and her husband passed away in 1982. They had a son and a daughter who had families of their own. The phone number to the house was in the daughter's name, and the bills I found inside the house were in the son's name. I wasn't able to find out any information on the daughter, but the son has since moved with his family to a nearby city. He appeared to be a single dad until he vacated this house and met his wife later on. There are no photos of his wife in this house. His wife passed away in May of 2013 at only 56 years of age. It appeared to be a blended family where his deceased wife had a daughter before they met and he had a son. I was not able to find out who was last to vacate this house, why so many items were left, and why they no longer care about the house they obviously grew up in. Thanks for watching! :)

As someone who is cleaning out their father's estate, I think I kind of understand why people sometimes abandon houses like this. It's a lot of work and very overwhelming to sort then sell and donate everything. Then clean, repair, and sell the house too. All while living your own life.
It's also sad and sentimental because many of the objects have memories attached. Folding then donating my father's clothing was one of the saddest things I've ever had to do, because I remember him wearing most of them. A house is a home because of the memories within its walls. When a person dies, those memories still remain in those who were left behind. When we remember the person or tell stories about them to others, that helps them linger on just a little bit longer.
Urban Explorers like TikiTrex help us keep these memories alive too, so that an abandoned house can still be a home to someone.
It's even sadder if the remaining person passed and had no family or their family didn't even care about mementos.
How well you worded your post. I had a jacket of my dad's that I kept wrapped in dry cleaning plastic wrap. Sometimes, I'd take it out, try it on, and go through the pockets-- he kept business cards with random numbers on them and various notes to himself. I'd sniff the collar and catch the faded scent of him mixed with his aftershave. I'd visit that jacket like it was him from time to time until one day, when I went into the closet and it was gone. My mother had gotten rid of it. I should have moved it to my closet, but I just thought it would be safe where it was... not so.
idk why. but I always get sad when I see abandoned houses like this, where everything has just been left there. All the memories and everything. I
I like how you go the extra mile to gather some background history of places. The true final touch. Nice tour with lots to look at. Just beware of the bear guarding the speaker. :>)
the thing on the toaster was where you put the eggs in to cook them with your toast :) We have one of those
The familiar thing on the bed was called a Bullworker.
My dad had one too. Love your voice.
That was a great one!Too bad they don't rehabilitate able bodied and skilled homeless and allow them to live in the house rent free for a year in exchange for services in addition to a small salary.
It would be a win,win for all involved. They could turn that into a shelter to rehabilitate and help them update their license and focus on helping them.After the year is up,the owner or the bank could sell the refurbished house.So many vacant buildings and so many homeless.It's
a shame and a disgrace.Thanks for your great videos.
I felt overwhelmed with sadness while viewing this video.
I had the same feeling as well I something tragic happened and just gave up so sad 😔
Read the description if you wanna know what happened
missy cat I don't know about that but it is a several layered time capsule.
Hahaha-I laughed at your reaction to the bear-you sounded both shocked and delighted at the same time lol.
Haha! Delighted to discover it wasn't the real thing!
I'll bet!!!!
***** lol i got a chuckle out of her reaction and how cute her reaction was xD
Yeah.
The relief was very apparant in her voice lol.
I'd have pooped in my pants I think,haha.
You are just too cute, Tiki. I loved your reaction to the bear rug; so adorable. I would love to go exploring with you.
I love to hear your excited voice when you realise the house has belongings left behind.
Those are my fav explores.
Thanks for sharing.
I often wonder what happened that everything had to be left behind with clothes still hanging in the closets seems to be maybe a death but who knows. There's evidence that there were kids there just makes you wonder where are these people are now. I love your explorations you take your time and talk your way through not like others that go through so fast it makes you dizzy swinging cameras back and forth you have no idea where your at or what your looking at. Can hardly wait for your next explore : )
***** I wonder the same thing. Makes me think either the whole family died at once or last surviving member of the family did, leaving no survivors to claim the contents and sell the property. Sad.
***** I wonder if the owners wherever they are think about the place they left behind.
+RJL738 Read the description. The answers that you seek are there lol.
+RJL738 I wonder this too. I lived in the first house I owned for a very long time. When I eventually sold it and bought my next house I spent about two years grieving for the first; I was really homesick. I've only recently got over this. So I'm sure the people who leave these abandoned houses must think of them but are perhaps not in a position to return.
muskndusk No offense but the very fact that completely owning your own house, successfully selling it to completely own another house and potentially even selling that to completely own a third house is even an option for you means that you really don't have that many problems to worry about. Many people can't ever even own 1 house. I would love the problem of being homesick yet still completely own a home.
I thought this was an episode of Extreme Hoarders. The amount of "stuff" in that house could never have been arranged to make a comfortable living space. Thanks for taking your life into your own hands to allow us to view this find!
Thank you Pam. I had been waiting with great anticipation for your next video. Always appreciate your steady hand and your background research on these places!
You are damn good at this. Very entertaining, soft spoken, however very sad what happened. I love that you take your time and are very respectful.
Hi, the exercise thing is called Bullworker, my dad also had one of those.
Thanks for the video Tiki - I always wait in anticipation for your next video and it's never disappointing - Thanks again for sharing your adventures....
Thank you again, Pam for another fantastic video. Again I must say that you are the best urban explorer on the Internet. Keep on. Cheers from Denmark.
Ole Østergaard Andersen You are very sweet, Ole! Always good to see you here. Cheers from Canada.
I would be so affraid if there was a body found or something like that in there?
Another excellent video! Just be aware that they used a LOT of asbestos in those old places. With the paint peeling and the wind blowing freely, the dust can be dangerous.
Thanks for sharing. :-)
+Carina J Thank you, Carina. That is why I wear a mask. :)
Breathtaking ! If i could find a house full of stuff like this one i would be very happy ! I´m your fan ,Tiki .
+sergio peres You're the best, Sergio! :)
Another fantastic video, well documented to say the least, Pam!
it is fascinating to learn just what happened here. I found there to be a very sad aura to the house.
I'm unable to find any recent videos you've taken, and wondered where they are posted??
I absolutely love your explorations. You have such a great way of looking at things. It makes a person feel like they are there with you. Keep them coming!
Thanks for taking the time to find out the household information. It's always interesting to learn about the houses explored. Enjoyed your commentary.
OMGolly! I thought I'd watched all your explores, but I just found this one. Yeah! I love your videos! Bring on more please!
I could have spent hours in there! So much to see! Thank you for taking me along on the adventure!
Thanks for your adventures, Pam. Being an incorrigible packrat, it's amazing to me what people walk away from, which begs another question, "Why." One can only guess about the lives of the last occupants or speculate from observance, but you shine in finding some gems. Wandering and exploring the backroads is one of my favorite things and I do appreciate your explorations.
Awesome find! Certainty a lot of stuff left behind here. Great job on the research and family info, as always. Thanks for sharing!
AbandonedSC Thanks so much Jason!
I am surprised you were able to get around as much as you did. Great tour. Thanks for sharing.
this house looks spooky, i bet you there's a lot of ghost there lol
It's very hard to understand the events that lead up to a home being so filled up with the stuff piled up and spread out all over the place, when it doesn't seem to be the work of vandals or something like that. Interesting.
Peter Jolliffe It sure is, Peter. Too bad walls can't speak.
Peter Jolliffe Could be in a fast move they didn't bother bagging and junking stuff, they just tossed about what they didn't want. Then you add vandals coming through picking through that.
DizzzyKipper : yeah. for sure the owner of the house didnt leave it that way.
Peter Jolliffe, The residents must have been hoarders who were forced to leave abruptly for some reason, Maybe they didn't pay their property taxes or mortgage and thus the state or the bank foreclosed on the property. There may have been a police raid on the house possibly because the owner partook in anti-government activities. We don't really know
Love your videos, what an interesting old house. Thanks for sharing Pam! :)
I am always very excited when I realize there are new uploads from you. Always so informative. It's just so hard to fathom that a life or lives can end up in a heap and in decay. Raises such curiosities of the life stories of the occupants. It also kicks up the urge to do my own exploring. So often I drive past old, empty houses and wish I could head in with my camera. Don't know how you do it, but it's truly inspirational!
Bethany Trick Thank you so much, Bethany!
Thanks to DIY Camper for sharing your channel. You are one brave lady - gotta go watch more of your videos. As one viewer noted thanks for sharing so much information. I gotta see how you find these places. Be safe!
Well hello again Pam! Another great video, as they all are! I have to say I was absolutely amazed at not only the amount of items left behind, but also the fact that there were so many high dollar items still there after 7 years. While so many of us here on your channel agree that pilfering these items is wrong, there are many more who don't have that same level of moral conscience, and one would expect that the house would've been emptied of it's more expensive contents by now. I frankly find that remarkable! Be that as it may, I am glad that you were able to find your way safely out! I know I've said it before, but I thoroughly enjoy each and every one of your videos. You have such a sweet and friendly demeanor, and you do make it feel like we're right along with you! Thank you for sharing your adventures and please take care of yourself!
Kevin Patrick Thanks for the very kind words, Kevin! I greatly appreciate it.
I enjoy your videos! You take time to explain locations when you're exploring. Thank You!!
The interactive nature of this is evident and emergent in your videos. Do doubt about the fact that place like this have history. Thank you for taking this.
It is sad, how little the children valued their parents belongings. Even some pictures were just left to rot. I still enjoy seeing your videos.
I love your videos! And I have always wanted to go inside houses that are abandoned to see what's inside
OH Man! That was a good one! I often wish there was just a little back story on some of these houses. I would love to know why a family would just walk out the front door one day and never return. Good find, and thank you for doing the foot work so that we can enjoy these places too.
Read the description and there's your info about the house and family and stuff
Yes I would like to know the history of thease places ie, family and why they would just leave it to rot
Very cool video! The green turtles in the shed in the beginning were sandboxes, I had one just like them when I was a kid lol...loved that thing
From all the items left and the way they were with all the boxes, bags etc., it kind of seems to me that since the person/persons who were maybe upset over loss or whatever and seeing so many things, just gave up and left. It is truly sad! Thank you again for a great video, as always. Haven't been on the computer much to view your awesome work and really enjoyed seeing it again.
Pam, I totally love your videos! Also the research you do on them. Thanks so much! An awful lot of stuff is in there, it looks like it has obviously been ransacked, but I'm surprized that more isn't taken. Very good video!
+abenaki nation Many thanks! I'm glad you like the videos. :)
You are so much braver than me to go into some of these places....so I appreciate your bravery as I live vicariously through your adventures. When so much stuff is left it seems extra sad for some reason. That bear was crazy!!!
joyfuldenay Thanks! I surely wasn't expecting that bear!
Thanks again for your videos. The stuff in this home was CRAZY.
Thanks once again for taking us on another great adventure with you. I could feel the sadness in this house, not just a house that was walked away from, but just some sense of sadness to it all. Have a great weekend...Pat
skooterbird I agree. Have a great weekend as well, Pat.
I stumbled across your videos just a few days ago and I am in love! Abandon houses and old homes speak to my soul! Thank you for making them!
+Cassandra Anderson Thanks, Cassandra, and welcome to my channel! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. There's actually a bit of history in the description above regarding what I was able to find out about the previous owners or tenants.:)
+TikiTrex Oh! I see that now thank you for doing research on these properties as well!!! so cool!!! :)
I am glad your back. I love watching your videos. You have such a calming voice and are so good at narration. I feel like you take us along on your journey! I think about the families that lived in the homes. The birthdays and the family Holidays.
Great find Tiki, really enjoyed it. It does make you think why people would leave so much of their belongings behind though. Thanks for sharing!
Lots to look at, Great explore. Thanks for taking me on the adventure!
Florida UrbanX Thanks for joining me!
Very interesting. The house looks like it was abandoned much longer ago than 2008 but the stuff left behind is fairly modern. Looks like a fun day. Thanks for sharing.
Baffles me how people can leave their stuff behind. Thank you for another great trip
Fantastic find. I've always appreciated the houses with more stuff in them, as you get a feel for how it was when people lived there.
Peter Gomez I always prefer exploring those as well.
Yes, I did enjoy the tour you gave us. Thank You. I also appreciate the information you found out about previous family members who lived there. Ironic how broken lives leave broken possessions. The best part was experiencing a time-capsule of bygone entertainments. So many of the items are examples of what people did with their time before they spent most of their time on the Internet looking at what people used to do. ... :) - Tom
tommax26 I appreciate your appreciation, Tom. :) Thanks for commenting and watching. Glad you enjoyed.
Just as I thought your videos couldn't get any better, You give an estimate on the old PC's Processor. Two of my favorite things in one video lol.
***** LOL, thanks!
I bet someone came in and "Ram-Sacked" the house after the Owner(s) moved out? This would probably explain the Total Mess! Thanks for posting, and be safe out there!
Another great video. Thanks so much. I always feels sad when I see so much stuff that no one seems to care about. Like you said in your background write up it always makes me feel sad when people don't seem to care any more about the house they grew up in.
It's crazy to think a family lived in that house not that long ago. I wonder what caused them to up and leave everything behind.
***** that was a wonderful find but I don't know why i have watched so many videos on urban exploration and I find It truly fascinating but yet when I watched your video today my stomach sank and a great sadness came over it felt like somebody was on top of the world and then had it ripped all out from underneath them and just gave up it'll be interesting to see if you go back to that place in a year or two and see what happens to it if it's something that you can keep us informed on thank you so very much for that wonderful video, be safe out there and I thank you for your wonderful channel
Wow.."house of Plenty" is Right..Alot of good usable stuff..Another Great Job Tiki..stay safe..
Wow! My first thought was, "what if there had been a fire? who could get out?" The combination of Franklin Stove and SO much stuff is scary!
I am guessing the toaster, griddle could have been a 'frozen waffle warm up' - probably a collector's item.
Thank you for sharing this with us - another awesome video!
The exerciser in question was called "Bull Worker". My husband had one in the 80s. Great explore! Love your research and information. Really enjoy your adventures Pam :)
Wow, Now that's alot of stuff.. Great find.. You are not only a urban explorer , you are a detective also. Great video.
Tammys Adventures Thanks, Tammy. I really enjoy researching from the clues left behind.
Great exploration...thanks for taking us along! I enjoy all of your videos as they're always informative, interesting, and well done. Thank you!
Fleotus Bing Thank you for joining me along with the kind words!
Great video again Tiki!!! Keep it up !!
I just love your tours of these old houses----you do an excellent job of it too. I thought I was the only one that loved to explore old abandoned houses! Until I saw this site on U-tube---- I love it. These old houses could tell lots of stories of the past. Keep up the good work and do be careful.
I like the writing on the upstairs door....it reads...."What`s This?....the reply is..."It`s a door knob,what`s it look like" lol
You are without a doubt the best of them ALL who do this sort of thing. Looking at these old buildings & their contents take me back to better days. The way you scan the sites is beyond reproach. And your voice....beautiful! My only concern is for your safety & my only regret is not knowing what you look like. Take care. You're GREAT!!
Keep it up, TikiTrex! You're awesome :) x
The exercise item was called a "Bull Worker." It seems they are making them again! They were popular in the late 70's and early 80's. The other workout equipment looked of that era as well. But then, so did much of the rest of the contents. Thanks for the video!
It's pretty amazing how a lot of of the stuff on the ground floor of that house was still entacked, because with all that junk just lying around abandoned you would think that a house like this would be a prime target for vandals and yet there are hardly any signs of vandals being their at all, so yeah it's amazing that this house wasn't completely ransacked despite being a mess.
I was even surprised that there was a Franklin stove in that house, because Franklin stoves were lousy mainly because thanks to the placement of the pipes the Franklin stove was unable to properly ventilate out the smoke and it's because of that those stoves more often than not produced more smoke than actual heat so yeah the Franklin stove was not very popular because Ben Franklin did not give them much thought when he first invented them.
Did you notice the walls in the bathroom and the adjoining room looks like wood flake board but finished with polyurethane or varnish? That's unusual. Great video Pam, thank you! John
I love the fact that you treat the environments you explore with such respect. Thank you.
I had the couch that matched that chair in the kitchen back in the late 70's, early 80's. It was actually a stylish pattern back then. Your videos are the best, I'm looking forward to your next ones. :)
+Elaine Bovender Thanks, Elaine. More to come. :)
+Elaine Bovender I was given that very identical chair by a good friend, as I had no furniture at one time, brings back lots of fond, hardship memories, but somehow I've come a long way since then.
When you see these houses you wonder why so much is left behind! So many things could have happened, death, family feud, or no interest in the house. Thanks for letting us in on your adventure!😨🤓😇🙁😎😍
Hi Tiki great video.thank you so much
I have seen a lot of your adventures and I must say-you enjoyed this one the most-possibly. Great video.
+Scott Dunlap Thanks, Scott.
Ever since I was a kid have been fascinated by going thru old abandoned houses.
Looks like a hoarder lived there. lots of stuff in that upstairs. Great video Tiki!
Thank you for respecting people's lives. I enjoy your perspective and love the sound of your voice. You remind me of a woman I fell in love with in Windsor, Ontario.
Gary T
I also got scared by that bear's head haha! Just subscribed and you inspired me to enter an abandoned house in my neighborhood! Thanks and liked!
MiamiAviation HD Videos Thank you!
Another excellent video! It's been a while since we have heard from you.....or you like keeping us in suspense .if I were there I would spend hours sifting through that stuff.Thanks for posting...miss you. Your no#1fan. 😉
Frank Poindexter Many thanks, Frank! :)
This was fun. I was thinking the mixed family thing as well. The strange thing to me was that they left items that were obviously valuable to them. A leather jacket, and the newspaper and teddybear sealed in plastic seemed to be collectables of some kind. Also, the was random stuff was in random rooms in the house was weird. I wish you would have looked to see what was under that sheet in the downstairs room near the door and read the writing on the door with the padlock upstairs. Thanks for taking us along on this, very enjoyable and well narrated.
Robert Drangus Thanks. The writing on the doorknob had profanity, and I like to keep my channel clean.
Great tour, wow sooo much stuff was left!!!
Fantastic video very interesting! Thank you :) Most of the houses you look round I always want to buy and do up haha keep up the great work!
Samaldoful You're very welcome! Thank you! :)
It's interesting to know that even with minimal maintenance, if people still lived in it, it wouldn't have deteriorated so much.
Halfway through the tour, I'm really liking this house. Wish I could have it. :)
12:00: Preservation, perhaps. Knowing me, if I did acquire that house, I'd listen through every cassette, CD and watch every video I could get my hands on lol. That would fully satiate my curiosity about such things.
End: You're welcome, Pam! I greatly enjoyed it. ;) It just pains me to see the roof giving way. If only somebody would renovate it ASAP. It obviously needs a new roof and may require new flooring and/or joists where the elements have been going in the most. See ya on your next adventure! ^_^
TraditionalHymns I'm glad you liked it, Lewis. Many more adventures to come! See ya there! :)
Yay! :D
Good work, great videos as always
Why are these places always so disheveled, if it was only abandoned in 2008? It looks like an apocalypse went through that place.
I think looters or homeless people using it as a free home
***** Kids and grand kids use them for storage of junk they don't want to clutter up their places with. Just gets tossed inside any old way. One of them comes back looking for something and ends up tearing it apart looking for whatever. Animals get inside, freak out and smash it up. Then vandals come along going through everything looking for loot.
***** A few years is all it takes.
+Becky Biddick The looters wouldn't leave the Tiffany lamps behind.
I find your explorer videos very fascinating, you first got me into these videos!
Do you ever think of being a Detective? Your investigating skills are marvellous!
These houses are like my mums sayings "Gone but not Forgotten"
Cool tour of this lost property. Where did they all go? A lot of cool stuff left behind.
• Cheers from Michigan
Wow... what a great find, very interesting! thank you for posting!
LOL I noticed the bear head same time she did, I have to be honest, I pee'd a little.
awesome tour as always. Lots of stuff in that one!
Abandoned Steve Thanks, Steve. Yeah, I wish they were all like this one.
Hi Tiki. Just continually surprises me when somebody leaves so much stuff behind. Always makes me wonder why. Another great video, thank you Tiki.
jimblue39 Hi Jim. It sure is a mystery why this happens, and a lot. Thanks for watching.
Just awesome! Thanks for sharing!
I always think of the trauma the children must have through when I see these places like this.
Fascinating find, yet so sad at the same time. A lifetime of memories, happy times, children's laughter etc... all just fading away now. :(
it's a shame that the house was left like this. it makes it tricky to figure out what the family was like. another great video, Tikitrex!
Love your videos! I think places like this prove just how much we do not need all the "stuff" we collect and acquire. These people sure did like the color blue! 2008 makes sense....a lot of people lost their homes that year.
kittensugars Drives me nuts that people lose their homes for what? They are out and it sits and rots. Makes no sense at all.
nagaempress
I agree. There's a sense of sadness with these places. especially when they leave so much of their possessions.
kittensugars Absolutely they had been there for years and they had most likely no place to go so they left it all behind. .
+kittensugars Sometimes I wonder what will happen to all the stuff I treasure; And think that it will probably just end up as nothing more than garage-sale trinkets one day... : /
I would rather see my stuff become items in a garage sale than have it get thrown away. My grandparents had an attic full of neat old stuff and my uncle (without telling any of us) hired some guys to clear everything out and haul it to the dump. Antique furniture, old toys, handbuilt miniatures from the 1940's including a functioning swimming pool and a classroom with tiered levels and small desks, etc.
The house looks so dated for 2008
The occupant(s) were elderly. So even as 2008 approached, they already had their outdated belongings and updating the "lol" may have not been a priority for such old people.
+Renee Wright Just saying Renee, 56, really wasn't that old. she must have had cancer or something terminal.
Think you commented on the wrong post?
+abenaki nation You definitely don't need a terminal disease to die at the age of 56. Heart attacks & strokes have killed many even younger people....
+LOLsmileyface1992 I sure did! lol!
Always enjoy your videos. You narrate in a way that is informative without being intrusive. Odd that so much paint has peeled in there in the 7-8 years it's been empty- maybe a byproduct of moisture in the air? Lots of portable radiator heater boxes inside, so apparently the main source of heat wasn't very effective in the winter.
+mick m Thanks, Mick. The climate here around the Great Lakes in Southern Ontario can be quite extreme from cold winters to very hot humid summers. That can be quite harsh on these abandoned places causing rapid acceleration of the decaying process.
In the UK at least, those chest exercisers were call Bullworkers. Thanks for the video, I really enjoy them.
