Very spooky house, the long driveway through forest was spookier in my opinion. Reminded me of the movie 'The Shining'. Rumours that it was an orphanage before it was abandoned.

Update: Address moved to driveway to go up to house

A family built this house but sadly could no longer afford it, thus how it became abandon. It was not an orphanage. It's not noticeable but there was a pool in the back yard as well. It was a beautiful house in it's day until is became a location for parties. I also heard from others who knew the family that they built the house without any permits, but don't quote me on it.

So sad and strange... The building seemed relatively new (aside from the obvious vandalism)

A friend of mine went to explore here earlier this week and apparently it has been demolished.

Does anyone know when this place was abandoned? Or what it was before it was abandoned? Seems so large to just be a regular home.. And it's so secluded

Weird! I didn't notice that room when I was there. And I know, such a shame. Everything is destroyed.

Well that's just sad :( Here last weekend and a bunch of kids were here screwing around, but they were nice enough. Just blowing up bongs and stuff. Pretty much nothing left to vandalize, but the drive in to the house alone is easily worth the visit! Spooky doesn't begin to describe it. There's an odd room in the basement that appears to be a Panic Room or something. High ceiling, sound-proof walls, and a reinforced door...almost like a cell. But there's a peep-hole out, so..panic room?

Nope, when I was there the stairs were already gone :(

Did no one get here before they tore out the stairs to the upper cupola? I eventually managed to get up long after my camera died, but some pictures would be cool.
