MUST SEE - Incredible abandoned house! NOTE: Some audio portions are silent on purpose. ***they de-monetized so was forced to remove INTRO MUSIC. SORRY. Music credits: www.purple-planet.com Tejal Yann - Emotional Wilderness
That house shouts of love and attention. I really think preserving these homes like this shows us and future viewers that a house can be warm and cozy and how they became homes. It isn't a haunted or evil place. It just shows the natural change of time in a families life. The only thing I did not see was personal pictures of the family. I wonder if there were kids, grandchildren, brothers, sisters? I don't think you disrespected the folks that lived here. You showed that they mattered and you respected who they were. Bekah, your soft voice shows kindness not boredom. Thank-you for sharing.
Bekah I’ve always been able to tell that you are as excited about your explorations and video making as much as Rick cuz you are so focused on getting the best images and detail for your viewers. That fact that different things jump out to each of you and you describe things in your own ways make the videos really interesting and fun to me !! You both have been nothing but respectful of the belongings of and interested in the lives of the ppl that have lived in and passed through and beyond in all these houses. Awesome video !! Those end stills were gorgeous.
Cool place! Thanks for sharing. Yeah man that bottom part of the TV is fake drawers, just for looks. I turned mine into a dog bed. My dogs love it. Toilet water.. lmao.. it's French for Eau de toilette; a lightly scented cologne used as a skin freshener.... Because of this, eau de toilette was sometimes referred to as 'toilet water." Those Johnny Walker matches are so cool! Those are at least 1950s! Johnny Walker was a man who born in 1781, eventually invented the friction matches. I wish I could have seen that 1950s washing machine better with the powder blue on it. The music at the end is perfect! Once, again, thanks guys.
Crazy when houses get abandonned with all thoses things left untouched. What I would really love to see is a channel that not only find and explore abandoned houses and places but also try to research and investigate who were the owner, what happened, why it ended up that way and make a full fledge episode on each places. That would be very cool!
AND, preservation of, sale of goods, property for family members, INSTEAD OF. items left to deteriorate, property left to deteriorate == LOSS ALL ROUND WHICH MAKES NO SENSE! I would prefer things were TAKEN, to be preserved, or even sold, STILL BETTER THAN WHAT IS HAPPENING!!!
SLOAN'S LINIMENT... when I was a kid in the Adirondack mountains, in the 1950's, everyone used it for a mosquito repellent, especially when fishing . We put it on our shirt cuffs, collars, hats, and pant's cuff. I can still remember the smell. Not pleasant stuff, but it worked!
@Wanda Roderick Really than why did you bother watching. Just so you can show the world how black your heart is. Keep your negative comments to yourself. Nasty
Absolutely amazing, I'm sure the family would appreciate you documenting the things they loved and cared for before it's lost. Love your videos keep up the great work Rick & Bekah
It’s a shame to leave some of that collectible stuff to rot into ground. It’s obvious no one cares about it. Someone could give that stuff a loving home. So so sad to see . Great video 👍
Great find...i imagine an elderly person lived there and when they died the family just left it all to rot. So sad all those beautiful antiques just rotting away... thanks for the great video!!
Perfume is the expensive "good stuff," Cologne is the next step down, and is less potent, then there's "Eau de toilette" AKA "Toilet Water." It's the watered down version of a perfumed scent. They call it Toilet water, because you keep it in the "toilet room," and also, it was commonly dispensed in ladies public restrooms.
Remember that Little House on the Prairie where Nellie tells Laura she needs toilet water? She meant well but I think Laura got the wrong idea. lol. She meant eau de toilette.
It makes me sad to see these old homes sometimes because you wonder who lived there and why they had to leave everything like that. I just started watching your videos and you guys are adorable. Really enjoy your videos
It was just like walking into my grandparents house. Many of the brands are familiar. It’s a shame that the house has fallen into disrepair. The antique furniture is amazing! I am sure that the when the past inhabitants never expected their home to be abandoned completely. Thank you for being respectful of the property.
I love how you videotape Becca. With you behind the camera I get to see everything. And that your husband loves to open every drawer and every closet. It's like I'm right there with you guys. You are also a perfect narrator Becca. Always calm never in a hurry. You two are a perfect team. I enjoy every video you make
Another awesome explore Rick & Bekah! This is a lovely old home...sad to see all of their belongings left behind. Stay safe my friends & know you guys are loved. Blessings & Loving Hugs 🤗 from your FAMZ in NC.
Many times, I enjoy the comments on your videos as much as your videos...so interesting what people have to say about things you find. Keep up the great job! Love the videos!
What an incredibly awesome find, wow, thank you so much. Very interesting to see. Dont know if i would have put the harmonica to my lips but you got guts honey! LOLLLLLL
That was an awesome tour!! So much in that house took me back to my grandmother's house. (she passed in 1995). I think you did a good job of treating the place with respect. Appreciate you both!
I've been watching abandoned places for several years now. It's kind of sad knowing that once upon a time there were people living in those places but now they're gone. I've been telling myself that "maybe they just moved to another place and they're fine". But the sad reality is, some of them are really gone from this world. Thank you for respecting what they left behind. I hope everyone's like you. For the dear departed ones: May their souls rest in the Kingdom of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
I appreciate your videos so much. You both are a great team on the explores you go out on. Like the fact you don't vandalize or take even the simplest items home, just because no one else would want them, or would miss them. I respect you for that. I also realize you are a Christian couple which makes the explores more interesting. No bad language and none of the other stuff that some explorers express. Love your videos and your personalities! Great Job!! Thank you for sharing with us!
Y'all took me on a trip down memory lane..I had a lot of those things and furniture along with the wooden shelf in the bathroom! Thank you so much...I had a rush of emotion seeing this house...amazing!!
This was a very lovely place to live in its day. Not rich by all means but so neat and nicely decorated. One thing though, I do wish you would close lids, drawers and doors when you open them. Toilet water was another name for cologne. Not a shop vac but a regular household vacuum cleaner. Thank you so much for the post. Love to you both.
When I was growing up you couldn't find a bathroom cabinet or a kitchen "junk drawer" without one of those little salve containers in it. A couple of years ago I took my 92 year old mother to the doctor for her check up. She pointed out a sore spot she had on her knee and she asked the doctor if he could just get her a little salve, she knew it would fix it up. The doctor had no idea what salve was. (She was wrong anyway - the sore spot on her knee turned out to be skin cancer and the salve wouldn't have helped a bit!) When the little children got to go shopping for a birthday present for their mom, toilet water was a top choice! On the cost scale, perfume was the most expensive, followed by cologne and then toilet water. You could buy a bottle of toiler water with your $.25 allowance and to little noses, it smelled just as nice!
In Australia black salve, I think it is called, does cure skin cancer, so she just may have been right? Lucky to keep your mother with you so long, good genes or good diet?
When I saw the length of time of the video, I knew it had to be good and man, no disappoint there! What a pristine look back in time ! Maybe worth a second look?>>great to see you back ! > thanks for the video ☮❤
I do think if you slowed down a bit and really looked at what you are finding you would enjoy it much more. I realize your battery was dying, but if you prepared a little better with an extra battery, I think you would get a whole lot more accomplished and maybe even understand what you are looking at. Rick is like a kid in a toy store rushing to see everything all at once and Bekah has a more laid back approach. Great team, but if you stayed together and explored a little more thoroughly, I think you would find more answers to the who, why, and how about the places and the reason they came to be in the condition they are. Love the videos though!
I am guessing the last living person in the family died there in the house. If you noticed, one of the beds was missing the mattress. When a person dies in a home, the officials that remove the body, also remove the mattress for proper disposal. You can tell at one time it was a well loved and cared for home. Lots of happy times where had there. Sad how it is so lonely now.
@@mamasgonecreating1967 There was also a mattress on a mattress in the other room. Maybe it's t just got moved for whatever reason. Your theory is interesting and maybe true anyhow. We'll probably never know.
Lentiment oil is just like that mentholated salve jar you picked like someone would use Ben-Gay today for muscle pain. Those cups are made by Hull and are no longer produced. They were pretty famous pottery back in the 50-60s. In fact, my dad drank out of that coffee cup everyday of his adult life.
@ 1:15 - the three tiered kitchenware is exactly the same as the one my parents have. It was always used over holidays for delicious desserts 😊 Missed your uploads- btw those ants were crazy & huge!!!
Awesome find it's so sad that someone could leave their family belongings behind like this, it would be hard for me to find such beautiful antiques then leave them behind for everything to decay, however, if I were an explorer as you two are it would be my duty not to destroy or remove any item. I LOVE THIS CHANNEL THANKS RICK AND BEKAH HOPE THAT THERE ARE MORE VIDEOS TO COME!
Amazing! What a find! Virtually untouched. I'm going to have to try Urbexing in the South. OMG. That refrigerator! Never leave a refrigerator closed when there's no power. My husband and I cleaned the vintage fridge in our first house, before we moved in then left for the week, leaving the refrigerator closed. The next weekend, when we went back to clean more, the entire inside of the fridge was covered in mold! And, there was nothing in it! No food. It seals so well, it seals the mold and heaven knows what in. I don't even want to think what that fridge smelled like. The butter....the butter was brown, guys, in that fridge you guys opened. It looked like someone had put all the flour, sugar, butter, corn starch etc in the fridge for safekeeping and they never came back. Kind of sad. You two do such a good job. So respectful and kind. Great Explore, Rick and Bekah.
Hi Mary. Yes we’re married. Thanks for all the valuable info you provided. Sorry you don’t see more of bekah. She doesn’t always like to be on camera and she’s better at filming than me.
@@ExploringwithRickBekah It seems like you two have worked out what works best. :) As I said before, you make an adorable couple and a good exploring team. Thank you for all the great videos! I'm really enjoying Bekah's soft manner and camera skills and Rick's enthusiasm. I know Bekah is very enthusiastic, too, just quieter than Rick. She seems to like the kitchen things a lot, like I do. I love old kitchen things and old medicine cabinet contents. I collect old Jadeite and Hazel Atlas kitchen supplies and dishes. Keep up the good work! :)
loved the explore guys, for the most part the house itself is in decent shape, despite the living room floor starting to cave in, looks like it was lived in by elder folks either a man or woman or both, with all the lineament and Mentholatum rubs you found, in that one box, they were used for relaxing joints and muscles,, etc, those washing machines go back to the early 1970's, i believe it was a Maytag, my grandmother had one very similar to it,,,nice old home, ill bet there was a lot of love in it one time,,,,probably wouldn't take too much to get her fixed up again
This one is definitely a gold mine of goodies in there. Like you guys, I often wonder if these people had loved ones. Apparently not with the way the house is left! That's sad really.... Loved this one with all of the cool old stuff untouched after so many years! Thanks for sharing this find! Peace and Love, Kim ~
Love the things in this house. Wouldn’t I just love to have those rocking chairs. You made me laugh talking about the toilet water. It is a mild smelling perfume. The linament is for sore muscles, sort of like Ben Gay. This was a great house and the paneling was in great shape, not all warped. Definitely looks like grandma’s house with all the old stuff.
At 5:39, thank-you very much for exploring the fridge. I see so many of these other exploring channels that ignore this part and it triggers my O.C.D. so bad because I want to see what was in there. You're both troopers for doing this and I appreciate it a lot. I still find it so eerie and amazing seeing those old food items you can't even buy anywhere and have been long forgotten about. Wow, love that.
I love how thorough yall are, going through every drawer and looking at every little thing on the walls, I hate explorers who just skip over that stuff and look at only furniture
Hey you two... love your videos! Pro tip: wait until the end to open the fridge. That way if it stinks, you don't have to endure the stench you've released while you continue exploring. LMAO @ 11:54 ... "Cuz I don't wanna kiss no spider web lips!" :D Old art-deco dresser @ 15:50 is gorgeous. Most likely 1920's-30's. What a shame it has been left to decay.
It's such a shame that you had to rush through this find. You fell into a gem for sure. If I was Bekeh, I would of freaked when all those bugs began popping out of that cupboard. It seemed like an older couple had lived there, with the man being the last.
You two are precious “toilet water”. Toilette is French for your personal hygiene. Toilet water is like perfume. That rocking chair in the living room is an antique. You passed a cast iron trivet on top of the stove. “Salve” is an old word for a soothing ointment or cream. Some of the books may be collectibles. The dresser in the bedroom is an antique. Poor Rick a soured/decayed refrigerator and rodent excrement. I hope you guys had sanitizer in your car. The old bottles with contents are collectibles. The cupboard is an antique and is made of tiger oak. I love the antique oak dresser with the wavy front! I loved this explore … a trip back in time … The Lone Ranger harmonica is most likely highly collectible. This home is an awesome find.
