Exploring an Abandoned Cult Mansion built 1904 (Leader Stole Millions and fled)

[@krellman7]

I’ve been reading a lot of people’s comments on here and wanted to share something I have discovered over the years. As an example, there is a beautiful mansion for sale in Meriden Connecticut which is only about 45 minutes from where I live. It is 6800 square feet on 7 acres. The property also features a caretakers cottage (which is 2500 square feet), and an in ground pool and pool house. I can purchase the property for around $650k. It probably needs another 500k to properly restore it. All that part is okay. Here is where the rub comes in, the annual property taxes are close to $38,000 per year. That would be a big chunk of my salary every year. Heating and cooling a home this size is also costly. These are just a couple of reasons why many of these mansions are not taken on by most people. It would be great if cities would provide a tax break for people who buy and restore one of these historical homes with the understanding that they actually want to preserve and live in it.

[@dancetothenight]

This is a great idea and would preserve so much history in each American city

They won't give anyone buying a home a tax break because they are giving tax breaks to the 1% (the wealthiest) and the owners of the franchises that make hundreds of millions a year and even billions a year. It's sad that someone couldn't get a tax break for saving these beautiful old homes.

What's really scary is that the Rev. Steven's hairpiece still haunts the mansion. Beautiful home, too good for the likes of a hustler.

[@CameronInEgyptsLand]

LOVED the historical clips. That staircase though! Makes me sad. Places like this should be restored and preserved, despite their dark history. As you said, the workmanship, detail, and quality of houses (in this case, mansions) of bygone eras speak to the high value placed on hard work, high quality craftsmanship, beauty, art and design. I wish we could return to those standards of build. Sigh. Great job on covering this story, I had never heard of this "Christian" cult con artist before. That Jammin John toilet lid is a trip, ha! 🎸🚽

[@flyhargie]

The bedroom with floral designs was most likely a Nursery. The crib was most likely placed on the wall under the design. The oddly shaped small rooms on the third floor were originally servants quarters. The kitchen appliances were most likely removed as it was no longer used as a residential building. Great video! Thanks!

[@davidabrinton]

The machine in the basement is a paper cutter. It was located in a different building on the property years ago. I operated that machine as an employee of the Bible Speaks back in the late 70's, and it's quite a surprise to see it. I still have a scar on my hand caused by my carelessnes with the blade. Carl Stevens office was not on the second floor but on the first floor in front, to the left when entering the front door. I remember meeting with Stevens in his office. I had to laugh at the description of Stevens preaching from the window to the crowds out back, never happened. Sadly, people look at everything as black and white, so while there is truth here, much of the history presented is very distorted. I knew Stevens personally, worked in their print shop and graduated from the Bible School, got married and had our first child there. I left the organization on bad terms, but the description of all the HORRIBLE things going on here is very exaggerated. I wish there was a way for me to communicate the truth of the reality here (as I know it) but it's way too complicated and would require writing a book to share my views. I was also involved with the music, playing piano at all services with other musicians, several of which had studied at Berklee College of Music. I have both good and bad memories, but have never regretted my time there as it was a great life-learning experience with a lot of wonderful people. While it was cult-like, I would never describe it as a cult. The historical description here completely obliterated it's history as a school prior to the Bible Speaks. By the way, Carl Stevens could have lived in this mansion but he chose to live in a much more humble brick apartment building on the campus. While I had my own personal issues with the man, I believe he was originally sincere but corrupted by power, not money. I also lived in Venfort Hall, around the corner on Walker Street for a few years.

[@Dutchmonkey1]

That “secret staircase” in the yellow room is actually the servants’ stairs. The house had at least 4 owners after the disgraced “Reverend” Stevens had to give it up, so it is unlikely that any remnants currently in the house belonged to him or his college for the 11 years they had it. The name of the house is Spring Lawn and was designed by the famous Boston-born architect Guy Lowell. It was built for John E. Alexandre, and was later sold to the Schermerhorn family (who re-named it Schermeer!). In 1957 it was deeded to the Lenox School, and the Bible Speaks College had possession from 1976, until they were sued by Betsy Dovydenas, to whom the property was conveyed in 1987. It was then owned by the National Music Foundation until 1993, then Shakespeare & Company until 2005, when it was purchased by James C. Journey, Sr.

You can't be arrested for trespassing without a complainant . Being someone that either owns the property or represents the owner. Cops spotting you on the property isn't enough for an arrest . They can just tell you to leave .

[@zanehayes4380]

OP is correct. I’m a security guard (not the same as a Peace Officer!) And in Training you learn the different between Trespass and criminal trespass. If you see someone whom is unauthorized on the private property, and warn them that they are trespassing on private property and they heed your warning, they are not trespassing. But, if they refuse, they can be arrested and charged with trespassing. It would now be obvious that they are knowingly breaking the law and trespassing. It is a misdemeanor, so they may not be arrested. The issue with concluding that you may think they know that they are trespassing, is simply, you just don’t know. Objective facts are what the court is looking for, not conclusions.

I actually had a room mate in NYC that got completely taken in by this guy. He convinced his mother to sell her house and move there too. This was in 1979. He was a talented comedian who's life went completely off the rails in this cult. There were various others in Broadway shows that gave up their careers for this bozo too. It is a good lesson on how vulnerable creative people really are. I think the mansion is in very good taste for 1904. The staircase is a masterpiece of craftsmanship. The sweep of the staircase, the carved balustrade with oval openings and inlaid rosettes, all very difficult to produce. The house demonstrates a restraint for that era. It's artistically too fine to forever be associated with this cult. I suspect it's in a less than desirable area to be abandoned like that. It's a shame.
