The Finest Hell House - March 2015

Mockingbirds Favourite Nest Egg!

Been sat on this little egg for awhile, one of my favourite explores last year. Thanks to skankypants also.

I have to say approaching this place had me on edge, all windows covered in thick black cobwebs, worked out its only been abandoned for 10 years at the time I ventured inside, the floor coated in dry dog feces behind a curtain lay dog bones, im guessing the owners passed away, leaving the dogs to roam and die in the house, accompanied by large spiders and a few mice, this place soon revealed its gems, from jewellery to tonnes of trinkets coated in black webbing.

Unsure what else to say, but most shots light painted, I had to remove my coat once inside, it became very hot and soon my arms had a few spiders on them, opening a few doors the ceiling slowly dropped debris... But to this day this place is still my favourite, an for obvious reasons I have not included an outside shot, so please just enjoy the photos, had to cut the photos down, as I took far to many, as all the gems just kept appearing.

Hope you all enjoyed this, as much as I did walking around it - Mockingbird!

Stunning. A veritable time capsule of decay.

wow what a location, full of treats!
Superb set of pics really like the teddy in the window,
shame about the dog , Poor thing. It's sad to think people die alone, and are not missed!

Perfect natural decay in there
beautifully shot, nice work MB

That's beautiful, but very poignant. One wonders how such a place has stayed in this condition for so long and why it hasn't been sold or demolished? Also, if someone died or was taken into hospital, why didn't anyone rescue the dog?

I want answers!! Sadly we will probably never know....

WOW. This is full of win! As you know im not a fan of houses normally, but this looks like a good one to explore and have a look around

Nice to see you back at your best! (And no bite marks this time). You've had a few run ins with wildlife- rats, maggots, dogs and now spiders! Great photography as usual.

Great depiction of a very weird house chap.....lovely crafted photos, captures the bleakness so well....as you know I wont go here on account of the type and size of spiders....unless you go and hoover them all up first

Cheers everyone, hope people see why I loved this place so much wonderful feedback as always!!!!

Best security ever!

Lovely job MB, you've excelled yourself this time

A real treasure trove! Ace shots and thanks for sharing.

Amazing location with photos to match. Brilliant job!

Really poignant - it seemed abandoned so suddenly.....

Beautiful set as always MB, felt physically uncomfortable (Not an insult, I promise! ) as I scrolled through and I can't begin to imagine how you felt inside it!
