Urbex: Old Abandoned House of HOARDERS

[@agentfungus9742]

I'm a cop in a US city and have been in many hoarders' houses. There is so much junk piled in the rooms with just narrow pathways to walk through. Unbelievable. The smell stay in your sinuses for hours. A couple of the houses had the owners die in them. The funeral home people couldn't even get their gurney through the junk, so we'd have to bag the body and carry it out. I'm retiring soon and won't miss that stuff!

[@agentfungus9742]

Blue Wolf: Same here. Thankfully, I've never had to deal with animal hoarders, but have run into some bad neglect cases. Thankfully, I was in a position to take the animal and turn it over to the municipal shelter where they received veterinary care and food.

[@TikiTrex]

Thank you very much, Thomas! I'm glad you enjoy my videos!

[@TikiTrex]

Your sweet comment made my night! Thank you, Bev! I'm so glad you found my channel! :)

[@TikiTrex]

I appreciate your nice comment, Paul. Thank you!

[@rctazzzmannn]

love that old fuzzy feeling wallpaper my grandmother had it throughout her whole house

[@windymoore4009]

Love the way you take the videos and when you touch anything it's always with such a gentle hand. I really admire you for being so respectful of others things. The spider webs were great. Thank you for not going through that one web. They work so hard building those. Thanks again for sharing as I really enjoy your videos.

[@JackNorthrup]

My brother knew a contractor that got a job to demo an old house. He was given permission to go in and take anything he wanted. It was in the middle of a small city. My brother went with the intention of tearing out the wiring and the the plumbing if it was salvageable. I went with him. It was loaded inside with old antiques most destroyed by the leaking roof. But he got loads of smaller items silver knives, trays, service sets. Glassware crystal , it was unbelievable.

[@TikiTrex]

Yeah, it does appear that way. And thanks for your sweet comment, Carole. I appreciate that! :)

[@elizabethgaspodnetich9676]

I really like to watch your videos, it breaks my heart to see someones home so torn and vanalized. You show much respect for the property when you go in. I just wish others could too. I always wonder what the house looked like on the day the very last soul walked out the front door. Thanks for filming and be safe!

[@TikiTrex]

Thank you!

[@TikiTrex]

Thank you!!

[@TikiTrex]

Your comment made my night. Thank you very much for the kind words and I'm glad you enjoy my videos :)

[@kitttenn2048]

Hi Tiki .. loved when you said "I'm gonna go get me some of that" lol too funny... I enjoy your vids so much.. keep it coming 😃

[@TikiTrex]

Thank you! :)

[@philmiller99]

This is the kind of stuff I used to like to do as a kid. We didn't have the internet back then.

[@TikiTrex]

Thanks!

[@TikiTrex]

Thanks! I really appreciate that. It keeps me out there :)

[@courtneybuyseverythinggg]

Tiki, your videos are so great! I just discovered your videos a few weeks ago. I watch them back to back all the time. Keep up the great work and I hope you had a fabulous weekend :)

[@TikiTrex]

Thank you, Courtney! Welcome and enjoy! :)

[@TikiTrex]

No, I'm not from Ireland, but you are not the first to state that I sound as though I have an Irish-like accent. No idea where that comes from as I am Canadian, born and raised.

[@annetterussell4429]

TikiTrex where are you from. I am Canadian as well

[@TikiTrex]

Thanks, Steve. Yeah, it certainly was a challenge, especially while trying to maintain a steady camera while wading through debris, lol.

[@WiserRecordsInc]

It's amazing how the elements decompose these properties over time. Eventually, even if several decades, they, and all of their contents, will one day return from which they came. I find your guided tours Tiki, so much better than many others, because of your kind, thoughtful and respectful nature and narration. Another great tour. ~oO(♪)Oo~

[@TikiTrex]

Thanks, Austin!!

[@WiserRecordsInc]

Hi Tiki ~ I've been meaning to ask you, have you ever been to "Moreland Place" outside Owen Sound? I realize it is not abandoned, but the owner, Mr. Barry More, is a very sweet and kind man and is in need of some great documented footage of his life's accomplishment. His estate is beyond amazing both inside and out and is filled to overflowing with beautiful architecture and antiques. I just think "Moreland Place" is such a fascinating story and one that is in need of being told... by the best in the biz TikiTrex! Check it out... Your Fan, Austin Glen ~oO(♫)Oo~

[@TikiTrex]

Austin Glen Hi Austin, I have never been there but it looks very interesting. I'm not sure if I will be able to make it up that way this summer, but I will certainly see what I can do. Thanks for the suggestion along with your kind words, as always! Cheers! :)

[@TikiTrex]

Your comment is very flattering and inspiring! Thank you! :)

[@Crystalhealerzzz]

OMGosh! Made my night finding you tonight as i was so gutted when you disapeared, your videos are second to none and i'm a huge fan yay! Thank you so much for sharing such amazing videos! hugs, Bev :D

[@stevenmoutard1992]

I love your vids. You always backtrack and i love that. All other reviewers will glance past something of interest and keep right on going, Almost everytime you glance past something i'll be "Wait ! What was that"?! and you'll go right back to what i was questioning making me feel like I was running the camera. LOL Awesome job... Oh! and the lack of being scared going into them spooky ass basements i also give you credit for...

[@TikiTrex]

LOL, thanks for the credit. ;)

[@TikiTrex]

Wow, that is weird. Thanks for sharing your story. Sounds like a gold mine otherwise.

[@MKrip808]

I had a whole floor collapse underneath me on a second floor in an old house once. I was partially buried but amazingly unhurt. I hope you aren't all alone while you are doing this.

[@AbandonedSteve]

wow your not kidding, there is a ton of stuff. What a mess. Surprise you were able to move around freely. Great Video

[@TikiTrex]

Thank you! Yeah, it sure does make one wonder. :)

[@mcbiddle145]

Missed you. Glad to see you and your videos back. I enjoy them very much.

[@poindexter1387]

What ! No Christmas paper ! So disappointed ....unless I missed it along with calendar 😢

[@TikiTrex]

LOL! Well, in that case... And they even have fur!!! :)

[@ladyi7609]

Oh man, I really wish you'd have gotten a tighter focus on that Baxter box on the floor in the first level makeshift bedroom!! My mom's on peritoneal dialysis through Fresenius and I know that Baxter is a competing company there, and I imagine they do other home medical products and services too. Maybe there was at least one person living there in the house who was so lousy at taking care of their diabetes (I can only imagine, because my mom was just as diligent about her illness as she was about home cleanliness and she still ended up with complications) that they were needing constant home health care (I noticed a lot of medical supply boxes out in the main foyer area). Oh, and Mom actually experienced peritoneal dialysis using Baxter machines during her last few hospitalizations because that's all they had -- it requires a change in cap type but that's about it, and their machines are far bulkier than Fresenius's but a whole lot quieter even during the stages where the heater bag is filling itself up with replacement solution (during the "dwell" stage of the treatment). That's when the Fresenius "dream" machines are at their noisiest. Anyway, the whole house looked like no one ever gave a damn about it and that's just too sad, and this is the first time I actually felt less awed by the "frozen in time" junk (being that my earliest memories are from the 1980s I love seeing stuff from before that time) and more saddened by all that pathetic junk. Junk junk junk. I'm also happy you made it out of this house in one piece and am wondering when it'll collapse in on itself, because it's only a matter of time.

[@Redmeggy]

If that house could talk.... this video is awesome! so cool you could peek around inside there.

[@aimeejohnson8072]

You should of looked at the dates on the cleaning products and vitamins, some of the stuff looked within 10 yrs.

[@dbeecooks]

I love your videos! You have such a respect for the properties you explore.

[@zainuddinatan4919]

old house full of memories and history

[@martinpratley849]

I watch many videos that various people upload on there channels on abandoned places but you're the coolest.

[@ceciliahouston6294]

Come back we miss you!! Great job as usual. The place was creepy but still a great find :)

[@earlyaugie]

love your videos great job

[@Zoie12]

I enjoyed your video and am looking forward to watching more. Thank you

[@eightball7632]

Great video love the way you give some back history on the homes you explore

[@TikiTrex]

Thanks. Yes, they date back from the 1930s which I put in the description. :)

[@chickengnawer]

Thank Goodness-Glad to Hear It!

[@DLR310]

ABANDONED HOUSES ARE SO SAD ... I ALWAYS WONDER WHAT THE STORY IS OF WHO ONCE LIVED THERE ... WHY THEY MIGHT OF LEFT ALL THEIR STUFF BEHIND = KANSAS,USA ... WAS LIKE THIS BUT LOOKED LIKE PEOPLE JUST GOT UP FROM THE DINNER TABLE & VANISHED ... EVERYTHING NICE & LEFT BEHIND ~ ANTIQUERS OF COURSE STOLE THE GREAT PIECES ~ SO SAD ...

[@TikiTrex]

Haha, I don't blame you a bit!

[@WolfmanAF1]

Absolutely Amazing videos, Ive been watching them for the last couple hours!!!

[@jacklanders7527]

Cool I really liked it.

[@TikiTrex]

Glad you liked it.

[@NewEnglandOtaku]

I heard of someone who was a hoarder, he lived in Brattleboro Vermont, the house was a 2 story and beautiful, the guy who lived there had boxes and boxes of stuff piled to the ceiling and had cars all over his yard but the city wanted him to clean it all up because it was an eyesore, he went to court and represented himself and he was a lawyer so he knew how to handle himself.. he won the case but his house burned down to the ground after that some time

[@kantwinnada]

OMG!! I didn't know you were back! I always enjoyed your video's. Welcome back and I look forward to your uploads.

[@carolnorton2551]

That was a blue and white ceramic chamber pot lid!...........the wall papers in the pantry were from the 50's. Love your videos...........

[@kletterman]

That thing upstairs that looks like a bench is actually the top to an old stove. Not sure why it would be on the second floor though....

[@raymondmarrero2215]

Hello ray here I been watching ur videos for a while now and I do enjoy them but for some strange reason u always come across lots of booths and birds nest take my friend ray from New York ❤️✌️

[@737tinman]

Old woman saying "go" at 14:14 .

[@donnarosanna]

and 5:20 .. IF you believe in that stuff....

[@737tinman]

And "get out" at 12:17 .

[@donnarosanna]

OMG! Spooky!

[@Kat4u2]

.. yeah , you can hear the voices clearly , Wow and so clear too , not sure what they said at 5:20 though ?

[@BearySatisfied]

Pretty sure it was her breathing and saying okay at 12:17 :o and i didnt hear the word "go" :o

[@skaterchimp1]

im glad your back i loved your videos :D

[@karendaly3592]

GREAT JOB!!!

[@BVDTheBigVOLdaddy]

i lived in an old abandoned "homestead" about 6 years ago for a few months....the people that owned it let me live there for free for the first couple months while i "cleaned the place up"....the lady that lived there had alzeimers and was a horder...i basically just piled everything into one empty bedroom and man the mice in that place. you could hear them "racing" in the attic at night and one night i woke up about 3 am with a mouse sittin on my chest staring at me......LAST NIGHT THERE

[@TikiTrex]

The only thing I take from homes are video and leave only footprints.

[@JackNorthrup]

We loaded hundreds and hundreds of dollars worth of antiques in his truck. Then went upstairs there was one room loaded with cat coffins, maybe a couple hundred of them. Shoe boxes with dead cats in them wrapped in plastic. Wow! My brother freaked incredibly bad. He left several thousand dollars of stuff there and would not return

[@darlon9552]

Great work!

[@TikiTrex]

I have heard of them but I don't use them.

[@TikiTrex]

I wear masks and respirators where required as well as use hand sanitizer. Thanks for your concern.

[@mamabear489]

Since its been abandoned for awhile, its hard to say if the prior owners were "hoarders" or if this wasn't created by squatters. Squatters don't clean up after themselves nor do they have access to running water or electricity. And depending on the character of the squatter, some to fund certain habits tear apart the house to find valuables left behind, empty any boxes, bags, containers, etc... to find just that and tear up houses to get to valuable wiring and copper pipes. A beautiful house up the road from me had that happen to it when it was empty. It was a crying shame.

[@ellenjefferies7310]

It's kind of sad. Some old Farmer and wife lived there until they died. They were from the day and age of NOT throwing anything away. Instead of having an Estate Sale, the Family was probably overwhelmed and just left it to rot.

[@eileenbrazil8795]

You do the best job of anyone! People can just walk with you through the places you visit. I do have one question - what camera do you use? It adjusts to light so well and the focus is great. Plus, either you have a very steady hand or the camera helps with that. Keep up the explorations, please.

[@TikiTrex]

Thank you, Eileen! I use a Canon PowerShot SX20is.

[@bigbear3505]

***** remember what you said on video that think look like a old bench .. well .. its not a bench .. that piece belong to on top of very old wood cooking stove .. I will give you a link of picture below kitchnstove.com/woodfired-kitchen-stove-2/ here it is tikitrex .. I love what you do sweetie

[@TikiTrex]

bern trailboss Thank you! Actually, I did correct it with an annotation on the video at that spot some time ago, but I don't think some mobile devices pick up the annotations that are placed on after the video is uploaded. But I appreciate the correction and am glad you love what I do.

[@cherylhutchinson2206]

the medical thing at 4:20 looked like diabetes blood sugar testing machine.

[@lottiefaith6935]

The wallpaper continues to fascinate me, do you end up seeing the same patterns? They all look different to me but I would think there would be repeats. Do you spend more time off camera looking through things? I would love to look at the papers.

[@TikiTrex]

Lottie Faith I don't really pay that much attention to the pattern details. Since I don't spend much time in these places, I spend most of my time on camera. I would love to stay longer if I could off-camera.

[@TikiTrex]

+kevvg Yes, foyer. But it is pronounced "foy-ay" here in Canada and European countries, whereas, the U.S. pronounces it "foy-er". Just depends on the dialect.

[@MrErratic69]

I get jealous watching your videos! I

[@ashleyvardy4877]

I have been watching your videos and i love them. I use to explore abandoned houses when I was younger and living in Chatham ontario there are quite a few abandoned farm houses out that way. how often do you explore the london area? I would love to get back into this. It always amazes me the beauty thats left to rot in nature that use to nurture a family.

[@TikiTrex]

I do wear masks, but thanks for your concern.

[@andrewbrendan1579]

My guess: older residents made the downstairs rooms into bedrooms; perhaps one or both died or went into assisted living. I'm surprised there was only what seems to be a little back stairway. Maybe that part of the house is original and the rest added later. I've seen in older houses in the east that stairways are narrow and have walls on both sides. How did people get furniture up there? I've read or heard it was sometimes made where it was used and just stayed there.

[@lonewolf225571]

was here a couple years ago, friend of mine did some reserch on this place and found out anelderly lady lived here. She owned some animales but had some mental issues i guess and couldnt properly take care of them after a while . so they were neglected thats why the barn has lots of small bones in it i am assuming. Place has been demolished now . A couple months ago i think.

[@watchensee]

I heard "get" right after she said "front door looks to be in pretty good shape."

[@WavyGravyTrain1]

There is some E Bay worthy stuff in that house. The newspapers, the old painting, the books, and who knows whats in those boxes?

[@XXBooksAlive22XX]

Awesome video! I would love to find a house like this!

[@TikiTrex]

Thank you!

[@adamwilliams78]

No mention of the stuffed bear @ 1:22? Looked like it may have been a Paddington Bear. No matter though, I love your videos and always wonder how you come across them. You've inspired me!

[@brandonmckittrick2822]

Love your videos, have you ever found anything valuable on any of your house exploring trips?

[@Brooklynlife1000]

I have a feeling it was an older woman who has lived in that house bringing up family and all and was left alone and moved off to the hospital or passed away there or something.

[@FarmerFudge]

I bet these excursions give you nightmares. Creepy stuff.

[@TikiTrex]

No live critters as of yet. Dead ones, though.

[@selahstar]

Maybe the man was a hoarder? So sad. My grandmother had a teddy bear like that. I wonder what happened to it after her passing...

[@MattCoza]

I've been into an abandon house, it got abandoned because it caught fire but not too severe. House was still very much intact. They boarded it back up though. Aside from finding an abandon house there was a huge catholic church, which was simply amazing. There were many interesting items, and I held back from taking anything, guess because it's a church lol. Just wondering on your explorations has you found anything truly unique and interesting that you keep for a souvenir?

[@TikiTrex]

No, I never take anything from these places except the video and photos.

[@MattCoza]

I know the feel. Although it belongs to no one because they abandoned it, it would still feel like theft which I can't explain. Peace :)

[@gustavefrankfurter6462]

***** Aww come on! I bet those antique teacups are sitting in your house right now. I guess you didn't notice that ALL of the doorknobs were cut from every door and taken away, so why leave anything behind that will be taken by the next visitor?

[@TikiTrex]

Gustave Frankfurter If others choose to steal from these houses, that is their decision and risk. I choose not to. You are crossing another line when you start taking things.

[@MattCoza]

@ Gustave, It's having respect for both the house and the previous home owner. Although if I heard the place would be demolished I would take any belongings that I found interesting, because knowing it will be destroyed would be such a shame to let it go to waste. Like a beautiful painting or like you said a nice antique teacup. I'd think the creator would be proud that someone treasured their work of art

[@kafeba3]

awesome videos

[@arynalexandralepsy6399]

My God, I've seen these types of houses on those TV shows about hoarders... I know they are mentally ill, but they annoy the hell outta me. How anyone can live like that and even sacrifice their families over a mountain of garbage is beyond my comprehension.

[@MrKelso159]

You should wear surgical gloves so you can touch and check things out and not be afraid to catch something and you can still operate your camera cause they are thin then you can just peel them off and throw them away when done. Just an idea ! Great videos !!!

[@thomasj.benoure7289]

At about the 4:29 mark, I believe those are diabetic testing supplies, I did see a box from a testing meter when you first got inside videoing . Just can across your channel last night and am enjoying it very much.

[@philmiller99]

I was waiting for Slenderman to show up. LOL.

[@pinz2022]

It would be interesting to know how to do the detective work and find out the history of the place and how it came to be abandoned. If the owner simply abandons the place and stops paying property tax does it automatically revert to ownership of the local government after a set period of time? Then again, if the county does not bother to go through the motions of seizing the property...Detroit?

[@reneec1924]

great video and very interesting place TikiTrex. Was that hair on the ground it looked like some white hair that had been cut and left in a pile.

[@TikiTrex]

I think I pointed it out in the video saying I wasn't sure what it was. Seemed like a wig or something like that.

[@TikiTrex]

No, I don't take anything except video.

[@MissShell1975]

YIKES, what a mess!! Was a diabetic living there.

[@moocowdad]

a lot of collectors who are in a hurry, and dont want to get caught, will use a portable battery powered mini sawsall and cut the door around bronze /brass and antique door fixtures, you will see them like that at flea markets, its too bad because the doors which themselves can be collectibles, are ruined.

[@linusmadrone]

Go into the basement! Please! That is where the Best stuff is!!!!!

[@scottfoot5245]

is it just you id be terrified lmao

[@specialk5035]

Looks like a possible raider hideout. Watch your Rad levels and be sure to bring plenty of stimpaks.

[@MrBobity]

Hoarding? Nothing compared to 2 I found in Minnesota. You couldn't even see the floor=no entry..

[@MegaMouse30]

Great video tiki, funky old house, how do you find these places?

[@TikiTrex]

+David Rodriguez Thanks, David. Just driving around the back roads.

[@msguitargal11]

I can't understand how all the debris, gets on the floors of these abandoned homes if they are not vandalized. So much paper, clothing etc.. Wish someone could enlighten me.

[@dalton6578]

***** I want to go exploring with you so bad if you have come to Michigan i know some awesome abandoned houses! I love your videos and i have watched almost all of them!

[@lilbaybbear]

would have liked to know the dates on some of the newspapers, but very interesting none the less. ty. you have another follower. :)

[@TikiTrex]

Thank you. Actually, I did put a date of the one of the newspapers above in the description.

[@lilbaybbear]

Oh, guess i'm not very observant.lol. I'll blame it on getting old. :) Love your videos though. Very interesting. I've loved old abandoned places since I was a kid. There aren't many around me, so at least I can see through your posts. Thoroughly enjoy. ty. :)

[@thanahatchet3329]

It's funny u found penicillin.... I'm allergic to penicillin. Awesome video :)
