That's not a "prison cell". That's called a vault. That's how you kept important documentation secure. That narrow staircase that leads to the 3rd floor is the servants' staircase. The 3rd floor was the original servants bedrooms and living space. The "library" in the basement is not a library. It's a working office space for the "butler" / manager of the place.
I have to turn the volume off. Views are interesting, but I find the tick to call everything 'insane' kind of hard and also it seems that although many years have been spent on discovering sites, the names and functions of the different floors and rooms is rather lacking.
Homes now are thrown up in a couple weeks! It’s all about money not craftsmanship. These old homes are stunning and it’s so sad to see them like this. 😢
...and even sadder to see them torn down to put up the new stuff that won't last. You're right it's all about the money these days, the more homes you can build the more cash you can put in your pocket. I love the old homes especially with the exposed beams.
@MontanaKat1912 for sum reason older homes were built better and stronger 🧐 i guess the younger generation is starting to realize older cars are better than newer cars 😌 the auto industry tanked in sales from the year 2020-2024 so yea older homes were just built better for some reason 😊
I totally agree, builders & craftsmen of the past took pride in building beautiful homes and doing the work for little money . Today its all about the money & as little work and details as possible.
As a collector of vintage lighting, l would give the world for that angel light fixture on the ceiling... it's just beautiful, and it's a shame that all the wonderful treasures we see in your shows are left behind to go to waste. You're a sweet soul to bring these things to light, no pun intended, and at 67, I wish I were younger, and had the financial means to salvage these lovely things. All of them will be lost one day, and no one seems to care. I love 💕 your work, and look forward to seeing more in the future 🧚.
@@robinlewis5374exactly. I had to leave my home temporarily to care for my father who had cancer. I didn't abandon my home. I just went to help my family. When I got back, my place had been stripped. All my prized possessions gone and someone literally ripped the walls apart to steal the copper. It was heartbreaking to lose my father then come back and my home was destroyed too😢
I was in that house when it was a Bed & Breakfast. She had dishes in those cabinets with the fruit and veg. stain glass cabinet doors. I walked across the bridge. They dressed in period clothing when they had guest. They bought small old farm houses and connected them to the other parts. Each house they added on was another bedroom and ensuite bathroom. Sometimes the little house large enough they could get two bedrooms and ensuites. There was a claw foot tub beside the tree growing up through the floor They built that part around the tree. The bed was to the right of the tree. The room at 16:49. was used as a dining room. It was where we served lunch. The porch after the dining room was a side porch. Not to far off of it was the veg. garden. They grew some of the veg. they served. The room at 23:12 was being worked on when we were there. The whole house was beautiful. The noise is most likely a pump jack your in the middle of oil field.
How unusual to buy a house to connect to another. I imagine they lifted the house and carried it over. Was it a busy town back when the house was a B&B?
There is a video on RUclips, titled "Heritage Manor Bed and Breakfast Outdoors" that shows much of the exterior filmed in 2010 prior to closing. The Heritage Manor B& B was closed in 2011.
Since they had a bar, the 'prison cell' may have been where they kept the back stock of adult beverages. I have seen rooms like this in old taverns. love your videos! Keep exploring!
Agreed. I just mentioned the same thing. I should read the comments so I don't repeat them. LOL. The first place I worked had a couple cases of Dom Perignon in the liquor cage and when the owner unlocked it to let me in he would look at them and sigh in a disgusted way. Thousands of dollars just sitting there doing nothing
I know you don't take things but PLEASE go back and preserve some of those tapes. That's probably footage of when the place was running. How wonderful it would be to see that.
Respectfully disagree, I just feel leave it where it lies. You never know what's coming along with it. Better safe than sorry, but that's just my personal opinion. BTW, I too, would love to see the place in all it's glory if that's what the tapes are of, but my fear of the potential consequences of taking them would far outweigh my curiosity. LOL!!
I’m in British Columbia, Canada cool exploration. I’m grateful that you don’t do paranormal stuff because I steer clear of that. It’s dangerous and powerful and people don’t understand what they’re getting into. Love your videos 💕
Wow this must of once been a beautiful home in the middle of nowhere. I cant understand why a house would have a prison cell. This house holds alot of history and secrets I bet. The drone footage is awesome. Great job! 👍
I'm wondering if it wasn't actually a cell, they just used a salvaged prison door for a really interesting twist to the design. Maybe they had a great sense of humor! Dark humor!
@@loriholloway5866This is a fairly usual feature in bigger houses - mainly it is used as a wine cellar + place for a safe. Had to lock up the booze from guests!

Wow when you said this mansion was unqiue you were not kidding. The supension playground bridge really was very different. I did enjoy the tour of this one of a knd mansion
Those ceilings are made by hand. Each one of those panels are cast in plaster by hand, and then installed on the ceiling..almost becoming a lost art. They are VERY expensive to make.
The living room ceiling that you are talking about is not peel and stick on tile or paper. It is made from tin and then hand-painted probably so it is not a cheap ceiling.
@@margiemartinez2428 I worked for years as a psych nurse in a private converted mansion. All the ceilings and down to the wainscoting was all tin with a beautiful motif. If you’ve ever seen it you never forget it!
@@susanmolnar9606 My pretentious mother did something similar in the 80s with styrofoam moldings. You glue it up there and then paint it. If it was tin I think it would be rusting more, but it could be tin or a combo of both.
Back then a lot of people carried large amounts of cash and paid in cash. People did not use and have credit cards the way they do now days. The “prison” cell is not. It’s guarding and locking up what would have been their cash money if running a bed and breakfast until they could get to town and deposit.
They probably would have used a safe. I've seen wine cellars or closets built similarly with wrought iron. They might have got the bars from an old jail or prison though. Who knows.
BigBankz, that pull out oven was a popular 1964 model. If you want to see one in good shape watch early "Bewitched" episodes. Samantha uses it in her kitchen scenes.
It's a great house I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite feature it always makes me sad to see these great old houses vandalized and left to rot when there are homeless people
This is an amazing mansion, and I'm glad you revisited. I can't pick my favorite room because I'm enjoying the woodwork. It's gorgeous. I'm watching from Alabama. BTW I've been a fan of yours from the beginning. I also appreciate the Bible verses .
The ceilings are so beautifully decorated. Also I find the wallpaper so extraordinary. A pity that the lovely stained glass windows are broken. The woodwork is beautifull together with the railings in the house. A pity that it has been left to ruin, a really ancient mansion. It must have looked magnificient all those years ago.💗💗💗😢
What a very unique home! My favorite parts are the stained glass in every window, the stone stairs, the carved woodwork and those gorgeous ceilings. 6:30 that appears to be a tin tile ceiling, which would account for the breaks that you see, and to have a room-sized medallion made of tin costs quite a bit. Then to have it all painted costs extra. 11:00 I used to have that same stove about 45 years ago. I still miss it. I loved that the burners could be hidden away when not in used, and loved that the oven was face-height and easily accessible without having to bend down into a hot oven. 33:00 that canning jar is much too old to have been used for a recent event.
That staircase right outside the kitchen that leads to the 3rd floor, I believe that is is a servant's entrance. I had a home that was built-in 1898 and there was a staircase right off the kitchen straight up to the servant's quarters.
That was a yoke that was put on mules, oxen etc to plow or pull carts or skids/sleds to clean the manure out of barns. The whole place gives off creepy vibes.
That's a horse collar, made of leather filled with padding, meant to protect a horse or mule's neck when it was pulling a heavy load. A yoke is made of wood and used for oxen, in pairs or as a single animal pulling.
A kids playground bridge? A prison in the basement? With an entertainment bar next to the prison? With video tapes? Sounds like the movie Hostel meets the movie The Sound of Freedom. I'd be looking over all those video tapes to see if I can match faces to people. Seriously. Get those tapes.
And apparently they were major Christians to a cult point… 👀 look up Heritage B&B Aline, Oklahoma for the info on the owners. The “God” VHS there supports that too (also just being in Oklahoma lol)
I grew up in a 1901 home built by Mormons in Nevada. Beautiful limestone. So many rumors about it that just weren’t so. Unless you know first hand I wouldn’t soread rumors like that. They could have been wonderful people. Also rich people like a good safe. Or a safe inside a vault. That’s what I’m guessing but I can’t say something nefarious didn’t cross my mind.
Love old houses like this one. I always wish I could renovate them so they can be used again. Watching from South Africa and can't wait for the next one.
Hello Big Banks , I am interested in knowing more about the original home owners and where they transferred that property from originally from before they settled down there. It’s a shame it wasn’t sold or left to anyone before they passed. It’s a beautiful place. The land alone has to be worth a lot. Thank you I really enjoy all of your videos and where you take us. It’s like you give us just a little extra piece of your own special interest and time. We appreciate it. ❤
I think that's a Fridgidare 400. This stove was hot in 60's and early 70's as I recall. One of my best friend's folks had one in their kitchen in the early 70's. The burners were in a drawer that pulled out. It was cool. I'm pretty sure Samantha on "Bewitched" had one in her kitchen. Great video. Thanks
Hey👋Bigbankz hope you’re well. Just finished watching this mansion built in 1903, it’s so sad but I personally imagine what a beautiful home this was at one time. The couple that enjoyed it and how happy they might have been in their younger years. Thank you for sharing! God bless you and yours.👍🏻
The Frigidaire range you said you've never seen before is named Flair. Ovens are at shoulder level and stovetop pulls out to allow full access to burners. If you have ever watched Bewitched, you have seen this range.
I love that you continue to learn about architecture and furnishings. It makes the descriptions so much better. The fuzzy wallpaper is called flocked wallpaper and the litter narrow shelves with the concaved arched space in the wall are called inches. You would normally see a vase or statue in them. Keep up the good work.👍👍👍👍
Watching from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. It's a long weekend up here, called "Terry Fox Day" he was a young man who had cancer and he set out across Canada back 1981 to raise money for cancer research. He lost his battle with cancer before he could complete his run, but the run is still done yearly to raise money for research.
27:48 I think I started having a panic attack seeing these small bedrooms! I’m majorly claustrophobic and seeing the height of the bed compared to what was the wall was too much.
Loved the tour of this place. Such beautiful woodwork. The room with the tree is so unique. It's so sad it's falling apart. Such a beautiful place. I can imagine it when it was up & running. Thanks for taking your time showing the place & explaining things. Too bad someone didn't keep it going.
No privacy in the tub you say. That's when those mobile room dividers were very popular. I forgot what they called them in old England but they were in nearly every Victorian home. At least upper middle class and up.
Hi BigBankz. Thank you for the scriptures added at the start of each video. This is why you are on of my favourite vloggers,apart from the amazing explores you come across. This is another gorgeous old abandoned mansion. Thanks for sharing. God bless ❤
Omg those old hardwood floors ❤ 10:17 that’s so crazy that your friend just went across that suspension bridge 😮 10:53 love all of the stained glass 12:26 I hope they never locked a person in there. That’s whacked. 21:18 that wallpaper trim used to be used like that in the 80’s. It’s made specifically to be a “border” around the ceiling OR as a divider in the middle of the wall kind of like chair rail but wall paper.
Man; I hate how they let it just decay. We don’t need 80 acres but love the privacy. Both me and my teen child love the older homes. I always wondered if you ever had a “odd” or haunted experience. I am Native American but I am afraid of antique mirrors. So many antiques made. I am really curious about the history of the houses original origins. Long ago even when my dad was a teenager (late 60’s) he would go through abandoned houses and found so many hidden rooms. Back then (especially when the house was originally built) if you had a handicapped or mentally ill child it was either mental wards (where you don’t know the care or treatment) or you kept them hidden in the house. My dad has found many of these rooms in old houses in Western KS.
New subscriber. Greetings from Texas. Dude, you have got to save some of that stained glass. Somebody does. The fireplace mantle and lot ot the woodwork looks as if it can be restored beautifully. Shame to see things like this. Someone put a lot of work love and time into creating things like this.
It's so nice and refreshing to hear you appreciate the intricacy of the amazing woodwork! I hope their ghosts are haunting the crap out of all those that vandalized this beautiful home!
"Smells like something dead in here too." You saying that hit home. Oh my... I just moved from one apartment community because I started smelling something dead. Long story short pest control found dead mice feces under the cabinet in the kitchen. I never kept no food out and nothing on the counter tops. I took trash out every day since 2020, even when the bag wasn't full. Though management wouldn't investigate to fix the problem for me. They patched the holes. Many people were complaining. It was a older builfing. I only had a bed, treadmill and chair. I kept my place clean, being I like to clean. So it wasn't from me. Now I'm in a smaller place and thankful to GOD for it and being I can cook without smelling that foul smell.
The couple that found this old beauty and moved it onto a different property, were definitely quirky. The ceiling work you were complimenting is probably painted styrofoam molding. That's what is made today to recreate the old plaster masterpieces. It probably wasn't cheap or inexpensive to paint and put up, just due to the huge scale of it. The fact that it's styrofoam is why it's still up at all and not covered in mold. That bridge.... what were they thinking. I know that it was a B&B but... lord, that's a lot of quirk! The stove/oven/workplace appliance you were marveling at was a state of the art, for it's time, piece of modern midcentury brilliance. I'd love to restore that! I've never seen one except in old advertisements and videos.
That windmill noise you heard sounds like what a lot of people say they hear before they see Sasquatch, shapeshifters, portals etc. That's probably also why you get a creepy vibe there. Good chance there's a portal on the property.
Well it is Oklahoma, it’s sasquatchy there apparently… could be electrical currents though or even a windmill cause it’s OK I thought I heard the bees but maybe I was hearing that?
The stickers, as you called them, are actually wallpaper , the decorative walls, imprinted, the wall trims, they have wallpaper that looks like tin squares, so you can replicate a tin ceiling, without the cost, but appeal is still achieved. Beautiful. In all these abandoned mansions, starting a salvage/recovery business would be amazing. Alot, ALOT of work. But the rewards, vintage chandeliers, woodwork, doors, floors, hardware, unique ooak items, . All to be reused, to build the fantasies of your desired dreams! Vintage, windows, stained glass pieces, stairs, cabinets, book cases, built-in pieces, to be re-built Into someone else's Ecclectic, Exquisite, Eccentric, Entrepreneur's dream.❤ All these abandoned properties, speak to the imagination of their builders, designers and owners . Ty for your time, efforts, in sharing historical finds. Well done ❤
I can't pick a favorite part! The stone work, the old wood floors, the bridges! I love that place, what a shame they didn't leave it to somebody, anybody! The work and time they put into it just to leave it rot is beyond crazy!
Wonderful tour - Thank you. As I continued watching this, not sure why but I was overcome with sadness. It's evident this house was very much loved and now it sits alone and decaying. Yes, very sad and very heartbreaking.
HI BIG BANKZ . YOU SAY THERE ARE SPIDERS , LOOSE FLOORBOARDS , BEE , WASPS , POSS SNAKES , UNSTABLE BRIDGE, THAT ODOUR & DECAY ? WHY ON EARTH DIDNT YOU SEND ETHAN THERE , LOL !
That cooking range appliance in the kitchen is a Frigidaire Flair electric range. Many people may recognize it from the popular tv show, 'Bewitched,' it's the same range that Samantha cooked on in the late '60s and early '70s
Great tour! The stonework is pretty amazing. I can just imagine how this must of looked in it's former glory. It's always such a shame that. places like this one get into disrepair and abandoned when they must have been pretty amazing at one time. At least let someone go in and salvage those great light fixtures and cabinets, etc.
That's not a "prison cell". That's called a vault. That's how you kept important documentation secure. That narrow staircase that leads to the 3rd floor is the servants' staircase.

6:30 that appears to be a tin tile ceiling, which would account for the breaks that you see, and to have a room-sized medallion made of tin costs quite a bit. Then to have it all painted costs extra.
11:00 I used to have that same stove about 45 years ago. I still miss it. I loved that the burners could be hidden away when not in used, and loved that the oven was face-height and easily accessible without having to bend down into a hot oven.
33:00 that canning jar is much too old to have been used for a recent event.
What do people get from vandalizing an old home? Shameful.
I have said the same thing, heathens.
Is don't know but it's sad the home some kind of beauty still ❤
Love the unique craftsmanship of this home. I'm sure it was amazing in it's day. Watching from Pennsylvania. Love your videos.
When my neighbors remodeled their kitchen in the late 60's, they had a stove that slid out from the oven installed just like that one.
On the show Bewitched there was the same kind of stove, so cool!
I lived in a basement apartment that had that stove/oven combination.
I'd love to have one of those today!
I had a stove like that! It was old but top-of- the-line. It worked and was quite cool.
That staircase right outside the kitchen that leads to the 3rd floor, I believe that is is a servant's entrance. I had a home that was built-in 1898 and there was a staircase right off the kitchen straight up to the servant's quarters.
That was a yoke that was put on mules, oxen etc to plow or pull carts or skids/sleds to clean the manure out of barns. The whole place gives off creepy vibes.
That's a horse collar, made of leather filled with padding, meant to protect a horse or mule's neck when it was pulling a heavy load. A yoke is made of wood and used for oxen, in pairs or as a single animal pulling.
Already gave a thumbs up and waiting on this! 😉
Safe Travels To You Brother!

Oh....
And "notification" turned ON.😁
A kids playground bridge? A prison in the basement? With an entertainment bar next to the prison?
With video tapes?
Sounds like the movie Hostel meets the movie The Sound of Freedom.
I'd be looking over all those video tapes to see if I can match faces to people. Seriously. Get those tapes.
And apparently they were major Christians to a cult point… 👀 look up Heritage B&B Aline, Oklahoma for the info on the owners. The “God” VHS there supports that too (also just being in Oklahoma lol)
Must have been a gorgeous home at one time. I love the woodwork and fireplaces. Thank you for this very unique explore.
I grew up in a 1901 home built by Mormons in Nevada. Beautiful limestone. So many rumors about it that just weren’t so. Unless you know first hand I wouldn’t soread rumors like that. They could have been wonderful people.
Also rich people like a good safe. Or a safe inside a vault. That’s what I’m guessing but I can’t say something nefarious didn’t cross my mind.
You are soooo brave going to the 2 nd part of the 3rd floor!
Crazy library
Yikes
Dusty library!!!!
Mesa, Arizona
Love old houses like this one. I always wish I could renovate them so they can be used again. Watching from South Africa and can't wait for the next one.
Being that the place was a B&B at one time, there must be some photos of it in its glory days. 💜💜💜
I loved the kitchen cabinets, the stained glass & all the sweet details. The time & effort put into homes back in the day, amazing.
Wow, back in the day this house was beautiful. Thanks for the video
Hello Big Banks ,
I am interested in knowing more about the original home owners and where they transferred that property from originally from before they settled down there.
It’s a shame it wasn’t sold or left to anyone before they passed. It’s a beautiful place.
The land alone has to be worth a lot.
Thank you I really enjoy all of your videos and where you take us. It’s like you give us just a little extra piece of your own special interest and time. We appreciate it. ❤
Loved the stain glass windows so beautiful. Love your videos, great work
I think that's a Fridgidare 400. This stove was hot in 60's and early 70's as I recall. One of my best friend's folks had one in their kitchen in the early 70's. The burners were in a drawer that pulled out. It was cool. I'm pretty sure Samantha on "Bewitched" had one in her kitchen. Great video. Thanks
I'm watching from South Central Illinois. My favorite part was the very decorative bedroom on 3rd floor. Love all your videos!
Hey👋Bigbankz hope you’re well. Just finished watching this mansion built in 1903, it’s so sad but I personally imagine what a beautiful home this was at one time. The couple that enjoyed it and how happy they might have been in their younger years. Thank you for sharing! God bless you and yours.👍🏻
Love how they put the woodwork in the bathroom
This home was a master piece. It's such a pity it's left to deteriorate like this. What a shame. It was really beautiful at one time.❤❤❤❤
The Frigidaire range you said you've never seen before is named Flair. Ovens are at shoulder level and stovetop pulls out to allow full access to burners. If you have ever watched Bewitched, you have seen this range.
I love that you continue to learn about architecture and furnishings. It makes the descriptions so much better. The fuzzy wallpaper is called flocked wallpaper and the litter narrow shelves with the concaved arched space in the wall are called inches. You would normally see a vase or statue in them. Keep up the good work.👍👍👍👍
Hi. I'm new here. Thank you this was awesome. Loved the stain glass and the ceiling cloud. Chandelier area. I like your channel
Love the clouds on the ceiling! Beautiful!❤
Watching from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. It's a long weekend up here, called "Terry Fox Day" he was a young man who had cancer and he set out across Canada back 1981 to raise money for cancer research. He lost his battle with cancer before he could complete his run, but the run is still done yearly to raise money for research.
Still putting out great stuff but better at it everyday. Much love brother
It would be amazing yo see what this house looked like in its prime. I hate seeing the stain glass and wood work wasting away. Neat place!
These videos are so incredible!!!! Many blessings to you for showcasing these homes as well as the people who resided here
27:48 I think I started having a panic attack seeing these small bedrooms! I’m majorly claustrophobic and seeing the height of the bed compared to what was the wall was too much.
My favorite was all that stained glass everywhere. Those kitchen cab inet doors with peas and fruits......fabulous!
I love the living room boat designs
That last bedroom you were in before going downstairs was so cool. I would’ve loved to see this whole place in is prime.
A beautiful loved home, it's amazing. Thank you.
Loved the tour of this place. Such beautiful woodwork. The room with the tree is so unique. It's so sad it's falling apart. Such a beautiful place. I can imagine it when it was up & running. Thanks for taking your time showing the place & explaining things. Too bad someone didn't keep it going.
No privacy in the tub you say. That's when those mobile room dividers were very popular. I forgot what they called them in old England but they were in nearly every Victorian home. At least upper middle class and up.
I prefer the first part. The best bits for me are the isolation and the views from the porches - heavenly! Greetings from Chester, UK
Fridges are the longest lasting man made device. Chances are any Fridge you plugged in would work.
Definately it will work ,I have my grandmom fridge she bought 1983 still work very well and is the coolest fridge
Hi BigBankz. Thank you for the scriptures added at the start of each video. This is why you are on of my favourite vloggers,apart from the amazing explores you come across. This is another gorgeous old abandoned mansion. Thanks for sharing. God bless ❤
Really cool old house they don't make them like this anymore. I like how the top of the roof has the sign of the cross.
Omg those old hardwood floors ❤ 10:17 that’s so crazy that your friend just went across that suspension bridge 😮 10:53 love all of the stained glass 12:26 I hope they never locked a person in there. That’s whacked. 21:18 that wallpaper trim used to be used like that in the 80’s. It’s made specifically to be a “border” around the ceiling OR as a divider in the middle of the wall kind of like chair rail but wall paper.
Man; I hate how they let it just decay. We don’t need 80 acres but love the privacy.
Both me and my teen child love the older homes.
I always wondered if you ever had a “odd” or haunted experience. I am Native American but I am afraid of antique mirrors.
So many antiques made. I am really curious about the history of the houses original origins. Long ago even when my dad was a teenager (late 60’s) he would go through abandoned houses and found so many hidden rooms. Back then (especially when the house was originally built) if you had a handicapped or mentally ill child it was either mental wards (where you don’t know the care or treatment) or you kept them hidden in the house. My dad has found many of these rooms in old houses in Western KS.
This mansion was gorgeous in its day! Very unique features as well! Cool video bro! 🤘❤️👍
New subscriber. Greetings from Texas.
Dude, you have got to save some of that stained glass. Somebody does. The fireplace mantle and lot ot the woodwork looks as if it can be restored beautifully. Shame to see things like this. Someone put a lot of work love and time into creating things like this.
It's so nice and refreshing to hear you appreciate the intricacy of the amazing woodwork! I hope their ghosts are haunting the crap out of all those that vandalized this beautiful home!
"Smells like something dead in here too." You saying that hit home. Oh my... I just moved from one apartment community because I started smelling something dead. Long story short pest control found dead mice feces under the cabinet in the kitchen. I never kept no food out and nothing on the counter tops. I took trash out every day since 2020, even when the bag wasn't full. Though management wouldn't investigate to fix the problem for me. They patched the holes. Many people were complaining. It was a older builfing. I only had a bed, treadmill and chair. I kept my place clean, being I like to clean. So it wasn't from me. Now I'm in a smaller place and thankful to GOD for it and being I can cook without smelling that foul smell.
Watching from West Tennessee. My favorite room is the bathroom upstairs with the pull chain flush. I enjoy your channel. ❤ from Tennessee!!!
Imagine having this beautiful land too
What a beautiful old home left to vandals and rot !! Love the old woodwork
This place is incredible ❤❤❤❤
The couple that found this old beauty and moved it onto a different property, were definitely quirky. The ceiling work you were complimenting is probably painted styrofoam molding. That's what is made today to recreate the old plaster masterpieces. It probably wasn't cheap or inexpensive to paint and put up, just due to the huge scale of it. The fact that it's styrofoam is why it's still up at all and not covered in mold. That bridge.... what were they thinking. I know that it was a B&B but... lord, that's a lot of quirk! The stove/oven/workplace appliance you were marveling at was a state of the art, for it's time, piece of modern midcentury brilliance. I'd love to restore that! I've never seen one except in old advertisements and videos.
That windmill noise you heard sounds like what a lot of people say they hear before they see Sasquatch, shapeshifters, portals etc. That's probably also why you get a creepy vibe there. Good chance there's a portal on the property.
Well it is Oklahoma, it’s sasquatchy there apparently… could be electrical currents though or even a windmill cause it’s OK
I thought I heard the bees but maybe I was hearing that?
The stickers, as you called them, are actually wallpaper , the decorative walls, imprinted, the wall trims, they have wallpaper that looks like tin squares, so you can replicate a tin ceiling, without the cost, but appeal is still achieved. Beautiful.
In all these abandoned mansions, starting a salvage/recovery business would be amazing. Alot, ALOT of work. But the rewards, vintage chandeliers, woodwork, doors, floors, hardware, unique ooak items, . All to be reused, to build the fantasies of your desired dreams!
Vintage, windows, stained glass pieces, stairs, cabinets, book cases, built-in pieces, to be re-built Into someone else's Ecclectic, Exquisite, Eccentric, Entrepreneur's dream.❤
All these abandoned properties, speak to the imagination of their builders, designers and owners .
Ty for your time, efforts, in sharing historical finds.
Well done ❤
The item for a horse is a yoke. It was used when pulling a plow or buggy.
I can't pick a favorite part! The stone work, the old wood floors, the bridges! I love that place, what a shame they didn't leave it to somebody, anybody! The work and time they put into it just to leave it rot is beyond crazy!
I like your Abandoned Victorian mansion
Is the best in the world 🌎🌎🌎
Big love from Australia, your love and respect of the architecture and every detail is beautiful.x
Here we go!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I loved all of the themed rooms and the gorgeous woodworking. The rooms in the attic was really neat.
Ohio here. Thanks you for what you do
Prison cell yikes.
It's a jail for the stagecoach stops.
They needed it during traveling to transfer inmates back to old towns they'd wronged, usually for trials.
Wonderful tour - Thank you. As I continued watching this, not sure why but I was overcome with sadness. It's evident this house was very much loved and now it sits alone and decaying. Yes, very sad and very heartbreaking.
HI BIG BANKZ . YOU SAY THERE ARE SPIDERS , LOOSE FLOORBOARDS , BEE , WASPS , POSS SNAKES , UNSTABLE BRIDGE, THAT ODOUR & DECAY ? WHY ON EARTH DIDNT YOU SEND ETHAN THERE , LOL !
OMG are you talking about Ethan Minnie? I just started watching his channel a little while ago. He has toured some beautiful homes.
Ethan is in Canada.
that house is very salvageable hopefully someone buys and repairs it.. beautiful!
Not a jail. It’s a vault for expensive items.
That cooking range appliance in the kitchen is a Frigidaire Flair electric range. Many people may recognize it from the popular tv show, 'Bewitched,' it's the same range that Samantha cooked on in the late '60s and early '70s
I like the wooden bridge
Great tour! The stonework is pretty amazing. I can just imagine how this must of looked in it's former glory. It's always such a shame that. places like this one get into disrepair and abandoned when they must have been pretty amazing at one time. At least let someone go in and salvage those great light fixtures and cabinets, etc.
Very weird house for sure.
I love the third floor! All wood...gorgeous. The wallpaper on top of the walls in the rooms were a style of the 80's. I love it.
Horse yoke used when plowing
It's a collar for a horse harness
Yokes were a wooden piece that looked sorta like a stretched out M , to go over the necks of 2 beasts of burden . Either yaks or cattle..
Coming from Fort Worth Texas. What a cool place! I loved the ceiling medallions best. The dungeon was definitely questionable.
