Thank you for joining us on our newest exploration! I apologize again for the narration issues, as setting up the new mic has led to unforeseen issues. In addition, the new version of the video editing software we use is prone to constant crashing, so this took a bit longer to get out. Look out for a channel announcement tomorrow, showcasing new features to be added in the coming days!
I didn't notice problems with the audio. You sounded fine to me. I did get the giggles when you were videoing the first floor of the green berets remodeling area with bunk beds. Your camera angle went on an excursion. I thought it was good fun to include that. :o)
@@lynderherberts2828 I'm not nearly as good at it as my compatriot lol. A WIP. I guess I notice the small sound issues in editing, but often they big for people. Some "pp" sounds on the mic, and rough cuts etc.
@@DesertifyUrbex Actually, I enjoy hearing you two making comments and decisions about where to go, not go, and what to film. Also, my compliments to your high standards and rules for exploration. I liked Broken Window Theory, who enter many European deserted homes where all the property has been left behind. Basically, these places are time capsules. Or are they entering winter or summer homes while the families are away? How could so many European families just happen to disappear but secure their homes as if they expect to return? However, these 3 young German men do not have honorable character and standards like you. I believe they use lock picks to illegally enter most of these estates. They have been caught by police and secrurity guards, I hate it when they pick up photos (and other things) and toss them aside. I have even seen one of these guys plop himself down on a kitchen chair and break it, and then laugh about it . They are shameless and profiling from their videos. They have certainly upgraded their vehicle and camera equipment - which is expected as income increases. I had watched the progressive decline of respect and increase in brashness. SMH I don't watch them anymore.
@@lynderherberts2828 Sadly, sometimes the places I people do I know are seasonal homes. Broken Window Theory, Dan Bell, and to a lesser extent The Proper People (who sadly list location names) are some good examples of popular channels with character in the community. That said I haven't watched the newest ones by Broken Window. The "family vanished" story, is a cop-out usually to make a place seem mysterious when the actual story is known by the explorer. You won't find us faking, trashing, a place, or giving out a place. I think it's hypocritical to espouse care for a building and then expose it to danger. The largest channels tend to be the worst, and I've avoided some offers of exploring with a few. That said, this isn't a career, but a passion project and I think some have gotten lost in the money train.
@@DesertifyUrbex Very well said, dear. Thank you for your feedback. I was harassed by a BWT guy last year for calling them out on dishonesty (in the video I had just watched) and for breaking a chair (in an earlier video). The man was hostile about the broken chair incident. After about a week of the harassment, I had to "mute" the guy because he wouldn't stop. I quit watching their videos, and removed all their videos from my Abandoned Places playlist on my other channel. Have a good evening and rest of the week.
A remarkable and beautiful location. The fact that the main chalet is so well preserved after all this time shows the quality of the craftsmen that built it.
It really does. The one it was built after also is in remarkable shape. I heard bears lived in this for a while, which also makes it suprising it's in good shape...
Wonderful video. I truly appreciate well presented history documentaries that love Maine and New England history as much as I do. I am simply amazed that this intriguing part of our Maine is not maintained and / or protected. Truly sad. Again, thank you and keep up the fantastic work.
Thank you for exploring it with us Kelly! I later heard there is a new owner, but no sign yet of works or renovations. Hopefully it is saved. Glad to bring some obscure history that should be better known, your way on RUclips :)
The history of this place is really interesting. The house is absolutely amazing. The architecture is beautiful. I really like the old fixtures. It's just incredible and you are so awesome at presenting this. Thank you!
Thanks again for yet another brilliant video. And also thanks to you guys this man's real story has now been told. What a beautiful place this would've been out there in the wilderness when it was first built. 🤗💖
I felt after learning the truth of it all that his legend was a wrong that needed a righting. I appreciate you joining us exploring it and the house :)
Hi, I was really amazed that the cabin was in such a good state considering it's age. What an amazing historical place and a very beautiful area for it to be built, I was very surprised that you didn't try to find his final resting place with that big memorial plaque though. Great to see another video from you, thank you for sharing, much love. xx 💖
A good question. I was pretty injured still, and getting there used up what I had left in me. I still have no idea where the grave is, though I understand it's nearish, but will hidden away and overgrown now sadly.
Hi, good to hear your voice. What a fabulous place. The outside view looks like a Swiss Chalet. Did I miss it or was there very little mildew damage.? It's good to see there's very little damage from humans. Thanks for the history of the place which you always make interesting. 🤗
A very interesting story as usual, loved listening too it, the house tho was not what i expected, i felt cold and uninviting too me, it does not compare to the cabins i saw in Switzerland and Austria, a friend of us is a member of the Bahia, moved too the west years ago and never heard from her again.
I supose that isn't surprising. Most Baha'i are now in Africa and South America apparently. The Middle East and parts of the old world seem like areas they may avoid due to the long past there. I am guessing the chalets in Europe are more inviting as they've been more lived in and loved. It was phyiscally a bit cold there and pretty stark. I imagine in Winter it might have been freezing, though I heard he had a very ahead of its time heating system. You can see the floor grates in some shots. I stayed in a Chalet once, and it was an interesting experience. Not sure I'd want to live in one though!
I remember in Catholic school the priest talking about this faith ,he talked about it kindly .and I remember my parents talking about it they knew a medical professional that was of this faith as my mother was in medicine also . great video 🖖🏼👍🏼🏍
I have this incredible urge to swing from that chandolier waving a epee Errol Flynn style😂 Can not help myself there. That huge chain will definitely hold me. 🔗🤣 I might even throw in a aaaaar or 2🤔😉
Haha! Tha reminds me of my first abandoned house I explored when I was maybe six or seven. An old cabin in the woods with epees crossed on the walls that I would whip around. Crazily the chandelier seemed to have a huge shell attached to it, that's now gone as well.
@@DesertifyUrbex ??? I only remember one other video that you put out recently. There were WWII stateside barracks with fire places, a weird square shallow machine gun turret, and the downhill backyard with cascading circles that didn't make logistical sense to me. What else do you have Nazi related?
@@lynderherberts2828 A two part video of a Scottish mansion that hitler's second in command was imprisoned at, and also a video on the British fascist Hitler supporter in Ireland and his mansion. Probably on the playlists for Ireland and scotland. :)
It's so peceful, and does not look like vandals have visited it either. It has been a wonderful place when the trees around it were not so tall or even existed! The bedroom with the bed with a partition down the middle, caught my attention, and it just seems so odd, in a place like this. It looks like we humans tend to judge others by their pasts, or how they look, and sadly this is how they are remembered after they have gone. Anyone eccentric with a tendency to shy away from others, makes their fellow humans, invent some usually dreadful story about them. There are perhaps some animals who have this leaning, but I'm scratching my head, trying to think of one that stands out to me in memory? The entire structure looks like it will not last a lot longer, but the fireplace is likely to stand for some time, being of a stronger construction with stone, and the wood will be reclaimed quickly! I seem to have missed this video when it was first shown, but my Fb has been dreadful lately, taking away photos etc. etc. with no reasons given! Well done both, and I am glad that you are back doing this work again, and giving me pleasure watching them. Thankyou. ...old Tich.
Glad t bring you another. Very busy now, but hoping to get another out in the next week or two :) This place could certainly still be saved and reused. It's very out of the way, in a place with rough winters, so a limited demographic, woudl likely want to live there. His legacy is sad, and I suppose most Christian saints too were ignored until well after their deaths.
@@DesertifyUrbex Hope you guys are doing ok, dont worry ill wait, they say the longer you wait for somethin the better it will become hehe drop us a message sometimes so subs wont dissapear in thin air after a while :-)
Now fast forward to 2020 and replace all Nazi spy references with Russian spy references lol. Nothing changes and true life is still stranger than fiction. Great work man
Hahaha, yeah everything has its cycle. Fashion, politics, paranoia. I think this man was successfully an "other" due to his hermit-like nature. Self imposed, and not surprising a false narrative grew.
@@DesertifyUrbex I can relate to the need for seclusion from other people a lot of times being the sort of creative person I am. People definitely come up with their stories lol. Your stories always have such unexpected subjects so cool dude
I wish I could afford to by that beautiful old thing and just hand the checkbook over to the crew and tell them to fix her. Obviously built to last, and she has. She seems so very lonely though, up there on that mountain.
@@DesertifyUrbex IT makes me want to slap the hell out of people that damage things. Just because it's abandoned doesn't mean you should destroy it. Also, amazing channel, I get lost watching these videos. We don't have things like that here in NZ.
Ew! Blown to pieces in front of a crowd. Ick! There had to be splatter matter. Psychological peril to control people. (I'm grimacing just thinking about it.) One of my college majors was Religion. I learned about the Bhai in one of my courses. The class didn't cover the brutality side of religions. I remember Bhai was in the list of cults separated from the list of world religions and list of occults. I always appreciate your provision of so many details plus the visuals of the people and places. Kudos!
Very cool. Not many study them. A friend of mine got even more interested and was going to study them at s temple. I understand modem North Korea also uses this cannon/artillery execution. All show, as a might makes right type of approach. It's amazing what people do to others.
@@DesertifyUrbex Do you remember the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan movie where the warring natives would execute their victims/enemies by tying each foot to a tree to rip them in half? I thought that was bad until I learned of hung, drawn, and quartered.

What kills me is how men can be so malicious and cruel in war, yet go home and be loving husband and father and pick back up with the farming. SMH
That is one neat thing I noticed as well. A friend was more interested in them and it was a big thing to be allowed to observe and join them in their routines at a temple. Private, understandably so.
@@KatieB33 That makes sense as their exodus was from that period. The piece I wrote on them was the largest study I did in school as they were so fascinating. A very cool experience for you to have had.

Amazing video love the explores
Finally a video from one of my favourite channels.
Thanks! Been a little while due to our big moves, but we're back :)
You are amazingly thorough! Thanks!
Thanks for exploring it with us!
Absolutely full of interesting info, great video, really appreciate and enjoy your efforts, thank you very much ☺️
Thank you, Annick! It's a very different kind of tale for an abandoned house.
Thank you for sharing Roy's story so beautifully.

I could absolutely live there. Beautiful!
You and me both!
Absolutely wonderful! Thanks. Come to Colorado! You two make the best videos
Thank you Amber. Have considered it in the past and may in the future :)
What a wonderful video. I live in Maine never heard about this before. So, I personally want to thank you for the history lesson.
My pleasure, Kathy! Always great to see people locally watch a video. There are so many forgotten and amazing stories out there waiting to be told.
Lived in maine all my life and I've never heard of this. Way cool video 😎
It's a neat bit of history and worth saving. I'm happy to see others have treated it with respect when visiting.
Absolutely gorgeous building, and yet such an intense past!
Thank you so much! Its story really is something else.
Beautiful beautiful location It’s like
Stepping back into that time is a trip .
It was pretty weird. There was an interesting feeling there I haven't felt before. A little inspiring, a little eerie.

Just a little bit of rot on the floors, and a few holes. It could be renovated easily and saved in the next few years. Thank you :)
A very pleasant explore this one and a wise move to not go up the stairs in the last building, quite the history for sure
Thanks man! A unique spot, and was pretty relaxing. I am glad the bears that I later learned lived in it, were gone.
