This house sits on the side of a busy road and seems a lot bigger inside than it looks on the outside and there wasn’t an empty room. I’m not sure how long it’s been unoccupied but I did notice a few things in there from around the year 2000.
I didn’t enjoy my visit here at all; something I never thought I’d say about a house full of old stuff. The last occupants used to re-home dogs. Apparently the man was a very heavy drinker and died unexpectedly leaving his wife to care for the house and animals. Given the state of the place there must have been quite a few dogs here; there was layer upon layer of dog faeces on the floor of most of the rooms and even on the stairs. At some point the lady became ill and was restricted to living in one room where she could no longer provide care for the dogs. She eventually died and the animals were left to their own devices. They became so desperate they began eating furniture and doors. The RSPCA paid the house a visit after reports of neglect and abuse. Even now it’s clear to see these animals were kept in appalling conditions and some of the dogs were not rescued in time. When entering the property I was greeted by the skeleton of a dog in a locked cage, so after taking a few moments to emotionally adjust to my surroundings I took out my camera and started taking photos: the whole reason I was in this house of horrors in the first place.
