Abandoned Goverment Employee's Home - Found guns, Presidential letters and everything left 

This is one of the more detailed and emotional homes I've had the chance to explore and document. Definitely an interesting story and location here, with all the contents left in the place as well. I enjoyed this place, let me know if you did by letting me know your favorite part / room or anything! Thanks for watching guys !

The home tells the story. He was from the UK with no family in the states to leave the home and its belongings to. Can tell he was elderly from the walker, his clothing kept on the 1st floor and classic elderly hoarding. I’d bet he passed away in the hospital with no last will and testament. He was simply forgotten. Sad.

Hopefully if he has any family they eventually find the place. Those pictures of him are probably priceless to someone out there.

When looking at the keys in the drawer at the 8min mark there is a business card with a phone number and if you google the phone number its leads to another abandoned place called the Grandview Palace condos in Liberty NY, it used to be called the Brown's Hotel (Catskills) and it burnt in 2012 there are a couple of urbex RU-vid vids of Brown's Hotel worth watching.

Great episode and find. One note: Those 'letters' from the Obamas aren't personal. They're part of a mailing list to donors who gave over a certain amount. I recognize them because I've seen them both...my dad has them (and more) from where he donated during Obama's first and second term. You'd find the same things from the Bush family to those who contributed to Bush's campaign, etc. Those aren't hand signed...just facsimile (printed) signatures. So the headline suggesting that he was an employee of the White House isn't just a little off, it's definitely not accurate. Again, still a great episode, just really off in terms of referring to him as a White House employee.

It's so strange seeing how these places are just left filled. Makes you wonder what could have happened for that stuff to be left behind. Another great exploration!

FYI: The White House Christmas cards aren't that hard to get. All you have to do is send one to the President c/o the White House and you will eventually get one back. I used to do that years ago. They aren't hand signed, any signatures are imprinted on all the cards sent out.

Your excitement is so contagious and pure . Thankyou for showing us that side of you with what you love, and making us love it too . This video was SO good

The photo that you said is beautiful - it's taken on Charles Bridge in Prague - Czech Republic.

His name was Ivan and married a famous Czechoslovakia actress. He was also in England and spoke no english searching for political asylum. He was probably Russian Perhaps he was a defector from the Soviet Union and to get out of there was very very difficult. Plus he had political relationships at the highest levels of government later in life. Well educated, a MD (not sure what kind of doctor)and spoke multiple languages and got out of the USSR at the height of the Cold War.

Love your videos! You have a great eye for film and the best way to tell the story of the past homeowners. I know this is going to be fire!

Wow. This was a special explore. So much info. Nice to see Steve Ronin! Great explore! 🥰🥰🥰

What an amazing find! Look forward to your videos every time! 🖤👏🏻

The title is wild af, can't wait for the premiere

My favorite part was the large, framed photo of the 3 polar bears chillin' in the snow...the one lying down on his back with his gut at high noon was my favorite. Give that bear another Alaskan Amber. Game's not over yet. 😀 Damn, I love this channel...thank you all for what you do.

This is by far my FAVORITE video of your collections!!!!! What an amazing man with a rich history !!!! I love love this find !!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

God bless your respectful way you do this, great release.

I'm also an urban explorer and found a Mossburg 12 gage rifle years ago during one of my explorations. Obviously you don't want any weapons to fall into the hands of a bad person so I actually took it to a local police station and explained how i found it. They were actually cool about it and I was able to keep it because the gun did not have a serial number on it. Turns out it was a pre '68 vintage model but it's hard to know what to do when you find something like that

That was awesome bro. You are way above the average explorer. You really discovered a lot about the individual who once lived there. Kudos.

Beautiful house. It looks sketchy. Great video & interesting stuff. ❤🏠🏚😊👍

Great find. Thanks for sharing it with us 👍

I'd love you to do some content digging into why the homes were left in such a rush.

Thank you. Enjoyed.

I really enjoyed this one! Interesting to see the story unfold!! Very good!

A great find, thanks for sharing 😊

I love your explores. Just gives me such an insight of American life. Keep up the good work.

you are a really nice guy... I've been watching your channel for years. Good job!

Devin like I said before I hit thumbs up before viewing all your content is awesome you make this so interesting ❤

I think this may be one of the craziest abandoned exploration videos on RU-vid. What amazing finds and history you've found.

22:15 The city on the pictures is Prague in the Czech Republic. The guy's name was Ivan and his girlfriend came from there, too, so I guess he was a Czech himself.

Great video! Thank you.

Excellent find and sad too!😢

I hope you guys contacted some authorities about the guns in the house with the ammo because if you guys find it so young kids can find it and possibly get hurt playing around with them. You either need to take them with you or contact some authority to come and get them and remove them from the house.

Wow the power is still on?! I'm always surprised these abandoned homes almost never have homeless people living in them.

Makes me sad to see personal items left behind.

Great find!

Superb vid many thanks 🙏

Great find and video.

After this video this house will probably be raided by FBI.

Wow, so surreal. Really enforces that we leave it all behind when we leave this earth. It was exciting and so interesting exploring this great find with you. So crazy how they left guns behind! Oh, and so many clothes. Wonder why the place was so trashed? Maybe he got too sick to take care of everything.

I believe that the owner of this house has had a good life - and certainly an interesting one, rich in experiences, as travel and knowledge of languages are very enriching. The moment you opened the photo album of the house cracked me up. You can see that the man loved this house and put a lot of heart into creating it, hence these before and after renovation photos - the progress has pleased him greatly. It's depressing that today, after a few years, this beloved house of his is reverting back to the state it was in before the owner's actions; it's as if it's coming full circle of its lifespan - from zero to tremendous progression, the glory years, and then it's an even keel and it's heading towards a house in need of renovation again, which is simply passing away - just as its caretaker's life has passed. The man blogged it so that the world would know it - and now, thanks to you, the world knows it - I, for example, am now watching it from Poland. This is probably not what the man expected - you are doing him a nice favour.

I love that you think of the end of the world scenario when you go in these abandoned houses. It's exactly what I think of when I explore one myself. Cause they what if? Ya know?

Awesome job on this exploration.

What a great find. Great video.

I love the light fixtures and doors.

Great video guys😀👍

Fantastic video. So much stuff left behind. It all could have been donated.

Rifle is a .22, looks like a Marlin Model 60 (that’s the small ammo you found). Not sure on the shotgun but it’s a semi-automatic 12 gauge, looks like a nice piece. Car keys you found are for a Mitsubishi. That first camera you found was from 2002ish.

Great video!! I presume this house was from the 1950s or so? Crazy fascinating stuff you found

What a find… enjoyed every second.

Great find I love your videos

Aren't most bathrooms "walk-in"? 🤔 Just joshin' ya! Great explore! Sad to see all the stuff from a life left behind. Thanks for the explore! ❤

😇 OH happy Day....... I have soooo fun with the Chenel! Thanks for the great update

That place looks really nice and I like the circle driveway.🙂👍❤️

Awesome house thanks

So cool!

Cool find

FYI, what you call file strips are called negatives. They are put into an enlarger and printed on photo paper and developed. Or made into slides.

Wild stuff.

Have you not see. the Exorcist??! NEVER go up a ladder into the attic! YIKES! Well done!! Opening the fridge/freezer! What on earth was going on with that guy?! Considering his position in government, I would have thought all records from those days would’ve been removed as well as the guns. And the photos! Wow! What a bunch of history there in that house. Fascinating explore! That’s a really huge house!

Hi! Just found your channel! Pretty cool!

Walk in bathroom? Aren't they ALL walk in?? lol

“Oh Wow!!! All the briefcases!!!” 😳

Love this channel

There are so many vacuums, because he could not find them in the horrrible mess and just kept on buying new ones. 😂😂😂

Send money you’ll get a Christmas card too!

he loved to vacuum all day long

If it was me I’d be reporting the house due to the gun’s I wouldn’t want kids to go in there pick up the shot gun load it up and possibly hit one of their friends

What's wrong with owning a Sharp TV?!?!

A friend of mine lives in the area and has sent me photos from here, I recognize all of the fake birds! I’ll have to add it to my list to check out

I have that same TV and it works perfect!

Honestly this place is beyond epic! This guy was sure a really amazing dude! RIP

I have the feeling that someone who knew this man will react when they see this. I wonder if we will hear more in the News outlets given his connections to some famous people!

It’s so weird seeing him hold up a camera that’s “old” and it’s literally from when I was like 16 hahahahahahahaha

Water in those plastic jugs evaporates.

That is a sony FD Mavica, model FD100 from 2002. The Mavica series were often known for using floppy disks as media storage. I'm not into them but would like to try one someday. They can be had dirt cheap as there were millions of those made. I'm a digital camera geek and any point & shoots or DSLR's you'll find, I'll probably point out.

I hope this house is cleaned up and saved for a new family.

Yeah that Christmas card from those two guys is really something…….

Are those clothes could just go to people in need what a really cool find that house is amazing

With all the Shop Rite cans there’s ONLY a few States where this can be Imma lean towards Jersey, lmao

That front door is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

@Dark Exploration Films. I had the captions on. When you commented on the craftsmanship of the door @ 8:54 the caption afterward says thank you!

Someone else went to look there and the guns have since dissappeared.

Nice Lowepro backpack.

I'm always so worried your going to get tagged for trespassing. Do you get permission from the local PD before entering these places?

But left alone...sad.

Well at least you can make yourself a tuna sandwich lol

❤ ilv this vgideo from Parañaque City Philippines 🇵🇭

It Just Proves Everything You Loved, When You Die. Those Items You Loved Are Just Trash. I Think Its Time To Stop Buying More Trash.

Wonder do you ever go back to the houes or ever find out what happens to them? What happened to the guns ? Great Video

Bro, I'm both federal employee and military member for the dept of defense. This video was heart felt. Loved it

The sleeping pallets on the floor as well as the jugs of water behind the basement door means that squatters/homeless people have been living in the house.

You should have opened the refrigerator to see what was in there 🤣

I used to have that exact Sony Mavica camera, it was about 2004 when I got it.

ooo a walk in bathroom.

I like that dog picture

Those plastic parrots freak me out! They did have a bird because there was a hanging bird cage on the porch. The half filled jugs of water probably were filled to that level so they were easier to pick up.

WOW

sad

I worked for FedEx during O's Presidency. I picked up an envelope addressed to Michelle Obama Washington. D.C. on Princeton U. where she went.
