Hey from SC! I love the video! What an amazing permission!! There’s no other state where I feel so at home than WV. From my first visit there, I have felt at home, and if I ever move from SC, it would probably be to WV.
Hey nice hearing from you and thanks for the kind words. My wife and I are both outsiders but we LOVE it here. WV is gorgeous with lots of old history. My wife says we will never leave. LOL.
Todd, One man's trash is another's treasure, so they say. I say, WHAT???? That is one impressive Castle, but he couldn't take it with Him. Vanity, vanity all is Vanity...eh? Merry Christmas to you and your family plus:),and thanks for your nice reply, it's always appreciated. Rik
Yep you are right. To spend all that money and not step foot in it, what a shame. His wife lived there for 31 years and ran out of money. She must not have worked a day in her life. A take of tragedy.
@@AppalachianHistoryDetectives wheres it at? Im nearby i never knew it had a cave. It on the castle property? *im watching now so you might end up saying where lol.
The only alleged viable cave in Morgan county is at an old abandoned quarry where I know the location but I think it's caved in so that people won't go into it. I'm not going to say where it's at. I already said enough. Yes that would definitely be a mine and they mind and several places there to get stoned for the castle. I mean you can look at the outside and see it's the same exact Stone. I also know the gentleman who helped renovate the castle in Mr Matthew Oxendine. I live only about 1.2 miles from the "cave". In other words that's a man-made cave nonetheless. Also, a friend of mine lives right next to the cave and is very knowledgeable and was telling me some history of it.
17:07 time stamp that is not a PUMPKIN BALL that is a modern-day RIFLED SLUG for shotguns during deer season. A PUMPKIN BALL is a solid round ball made of lead. I like your videos but before you tell someone what it is ask professionals any Gun Shop could tell you what that it. Don't mean to make you look dumb but truth is better than a guess.
No worries friend. I'm not an expert on many things dug and I do post all my videos on Patreon weeks in advance and have others provide feedback. Sometimes things are caught and sometimes not....I do the best I can.
