The Million Dollar House Nobody Wants to Live In 

You are welcome! And by the way, thanks for your Manscaped stuff.

Apparently "International" doesn't include the rest of us Africans

I enjoy your content however I am getting tired of this sponsor. Too much advertising on the channels I watch the most.

Nahh id rather watch your videos and use my eyes.

Hey fella, love the video’s. Just feel the need to ask you to please put a Photosensitive warning if you’re using that paparazzi edit. It’s pretty harsh with the flashing.

*their

*bottocks (just kidding)

Yes exactly. The emotional tone whiplash hurt my brain.

@@hansperil No...no...

@@hansperil given its a ball shaver I'm pretty sure he meant bollocks, and just fyi it's spelt buttocks, so you didn't even get that right 😂

Yep! Sounds plausible! Good one!

He was probably playing the Witcher and she just got confused 🤣

You've cracked it!

He was playing this deeply disturbing game the watcher 3!

I agree with this theory. I also think maybe the previous owners may have had something to do with it. Find it odd that they would not keep a weird letter from someone thanking them for bringing someone new to a house. My problem with this, I can't find a motive for them.

Me as well. 🙏🇺🇲❤️

lol same. We have a PO box and check it like once a year.

Yep, that's me😂

I’m the same way! I do everything online; I don’t think I’ve actually opened my anything from my mailbox in about a year. I’d be completely oblivious to a watcher. Not that anyone would pick me to stalk, I’m the most boring person on earth. 😂😂

So relatable

ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MONEY !!!

They did. Those details were left out.

@@nic4633 Did they have cameras?

@@usoseses550 he said they did in the video

Or guns and a weapons handling course for him and the wife.

@@usoseses550 yes

That is exactly what it sounds like.

Democrats. We keep them out of my community.

People who use the phrase "edge lord" remind me of 14 year olds.

Why the edit?

@@baneverything5580 Why tf did you bring politics into this lmfao

"The Doer" xD

It wasn't delivered in person lol

I would be watching with binoculars from the dark until I find out who it is

And the suspenders

Yeah, the whole story sounds fishy.

facts lmao

@Excentryck why wouldnt they check from which mail is the watcher sending those letters?

@@gonzoales6271 The sender simply doesn't include a return address.

Good point. Must be a urban legend.

Fkn Netflix 😂

Didn’t Obama buy a house in that neighborhood? He is, after all, an adherent of Weather Underground terrorists. Use your Google. And now he’s a multi-millionaire because of Netflix.

@@Ranxerox1911A1 k

Typical Netflix..

I don't know what's so interesting Scott this story to warrant making a movie or a series. It's just 3 creepy letters. Sure, in real life it'll creep me out, but it's fucking boring for a movie plot

It doesn't say did the new owners get any letters or threats

I dont know why I find that so funny but being tipped a bottle of alcohol that im pretty sure is like $200 and jets tickets is very funny to me

@@aleynahallie9506 yeah I was like "oh yay" in my head 😆 I would have rather had gotten a cash tip especially considering the house was worth a million back in the early 2000s. White collar folks from Wall Street and such all wanted to have that Westfield NJ mailing address which inflated their sense of worth amongst their peers. Imo if you put that house in just about any other town at that point in NJ history it was 400 to 500k house tops and probably even less the further you got away from NYC and Central Jersey

yea I watched buzzfeed cover this a long Time ago

Did Mr Ballen recount the tale? He is an excellent storyteller, of those involving horror, the occult and all manner of fantastical goings-on that happen on this Earth.

@@dianeridley9804 Very likely, I can't remember seeing it by him but he's great!

I don't appreciate him trying to tempt us into shaving our balls for 5 minutes every time!

​@@dianeridley9804 Yes he did... I think he went into more detail about it also...

👈

Exactly what I came here to say. I would refuse to leave my home for some punk who’s probably bluffing anyway. Ok, break in to my house to hurt my kids and see what happens.

"Fuck around and find out", id say as a foreigner, thats just badass. God bless the God & Gun Loving state of Texas.

That's why it happened in New Jersey.. Can't own anything there.. If it happened in Florida they'd be gator bait :-D

@Adolf Hitler Use a tank

Yea I was thinking exactly that.

But it can be something you grow into, so having it when younger means long so possibly worse? I’m guessing ofc. No expert

@@someguyfromtheinternet5158 Better or worse depends partly on the disease itself, and partly on how it is treated, med compliance, etc. My schizophrenia continues to get better over time because I take my meds and see my therapist regularly. But there is some luck there, too. Meds don’t work the same for each person. I was just surprised at the phrasing the narrator used. You just don’t stop having schizophrenia, (though you may get it under control).

Well it can gradually fade away or maybe he took regular medication to suppress it

I think he might have meant he was diagnosed when he was younger, or it was worse before

Until when he himself bought it, then he recieve a letter. This time its not joking around.

@@epoy9278 lmao now that’s a interesting horror movie

@@epoy9278 well as they say what comes around goes around

1l

The realtor next door neighbour being the most obvious suspect

the watcher strikes again !

Except that the stigma remains and must be disclosed when you sell the house again. So it really IS worth 400k less.

Once it hit the media, I'd think it would be safe to live there.

@@tisjester NOT TO THE PERSON THAT CREATED THE STIGMA IT ISN'T If you understand what hes saying...that means the creep is actively trying to reduce the value and then swoop in, when noone else would bother anymore, and for cheep.

@@catdaddy9626 Shit, before the video ended I looked to see if the house was for sale. I’d totally buy it and invoke my second amendment.

@@trentononeill5493 🤣🤣🤣

I think I remembered that the watcher didn't send any new letters to the new owners. I can't remember the article that I read this from.

Like "I desperately want this house, but can't afford the asking price. So I'll scare the heck out of the new owners to make them sell the house at a price I can afford" ? Yeah, I thought about it too.

@@nathalie_desrosiers what kind of scooby doo shit is this

@@nathalie_desrosiers initially they didn't want to sell the house till the letters starting appearing. so , the house was not on sale when the letters started appearing.

@@nathalie_desrosiers it’s happened before so I wouldn’t be surprised.

The whole block could have been poisoned by the water and became mental.

first is possible, but latter is impossible since they never moved. most likely it was the chick's boyfriend making the chick to put the letters on his behalf

Man you made me laugh today. Here's a cookie. 🍪

Lol man, that's painful

He wrote a book? No wonder his storytelling so good in the videos. Wow. Need to look that up :D

Agreed, most likely it was the bipolar neighbor adult aged child. He was put in a care facility and the house sold with no more issues.

A Ring doorbell system is a beautiful thing. Tape the door to the basement, cover all exits. Set up cameras at the exits. Also, the binoculars I know can’t zoom nearly far enough for the person to not have been close by if it was real.

I live in a high crime area, both me and my wife carry. I have a few cameras installed in the garage, driveway, side yard and backyard. If I'm not home and she's coming home late, she calls me to check the cameras while she parks so no one runs up on her. Recently went to Mexico and saw these beautiful homes with high walls but beautifully decorated and security spikes on top but done artfully so. Might check with the city and county to see if I can have something like that installed in my home.

Interesting how stories like this never happen to security and firearm enthusiasts...A big "mystery"...😂

why rottweilers? they're mediocre guards. train german seppherds instead, they live longer since they're not that much of a genetically modified breed

Is it inspired by the Amityville incident or the film inspired by it?

Honestly, as terrifying as living there would be, I would also love the feeling of living in a modern myth.

A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON.

The courier chases you down wherever you are in the world to deliver your newest letter from the watcher. There’s no escape until you solve the mystery and end it with your sword while trying not to take an arrow to the knee

small cameras

Secrete cameras? Sounds painful.

Camera glands must be acting up.

Marie Rockets. It was found out to be a neighbour who wanted the house but lost out with the negotiations

Was done in the end, they even opened several walls.

Seriously? It was a total of 3 letters over 5 years. Load of fuss about nothing.

Or you could just throw the letters out and live your life.

@@herrschmidt5477 Did they find anything or was it just empty space?

@@Razer5542 nothing was ever found. personally I think it was either a scam to get the house relatively cheap or just the one neighbour looking straight at their house was a (luckily rather harmless) nutjob.

yeah, reddit is for mental people in the first place.

Or the stuff of generic creepypasta.

i searched all of reddit , it is not there .

Just your average reddit admin.

facts

Aha that's very clever. Made me smile 😊

its the same scam the Lutzes did with Amityville. Cant afford the house, make up some bullcrap, and get out of the house

The letters were all typed. Listen more carefully. Oops! Thank you all for the clarification.

@@lauraowen8142 You misunderstood. The letters appear to be 'handwritten' - i.e. not addressed/sent through the postal system.

@@lauraowen8142 Handwritten in large block letters,

@@YBDownsta yep. Must be silent - or I've been mispronouncing it wrong all these years. :-) Google it. :-)

You figured it out ?

Why do people like his moustache?? I still miss his older videos, he just looks better without it to me.

@@CerealExperimentsMizuki because it’s an amazing mustache! He looks so much better with it 🙂👍🏻

@@nickyphenix4146 I 100% do not agree and it isn't the answer I was looking for it's just the same stuff everyone types.

@@CerealExperimentsMizuki your question was why do people like his mustache. The answer is because it’s a really great mustache. Idk 🤷🏼‍♀️ what you’re looking for nor do I care that you don’t like it. I love it and prefer him with it. 🤷🏼‍♀️ so ... have a good day lol

He does have a sharp wit and a great sense of humor, no doubt...

Not if you do not read the letters... this is like an asshole sending a comment on RU-vid. It don't matter until it's real. Let the 'watcher' approach me and say that to my face, now we're talkin!

nah, the people investigating were just shit at it.

@@SkittleNutz77 literally 😂

I mean if you threaten anyone's kids I bet they're gonna be on edge

@Adolf Hitler like you didn’t do ANY OF THAT right?😂

That's the point, since you don't have them, you'd potentially be the one smelling... the deodorant...

You could wear fake ones that are actually scented like those trees they hang on rear view mirrors in cars.

Ovary deodorant could be the next big thing! You're welcome ;)

lol

Thanks guys! Really excited for all the ball smelling/fake ball wearing/ovary scented options available to me 😂😂

BALDY MCSHAVEDBALLS 😂🤣😂😂😂

nice ending !!!

as an artist I fucking love this concept, it would be a real classic given all the shit horror films being released.

I wonder if the local cops bothered to do familial DNA. I get the feeling they didn't take it very seriously, so I doubt it.

If it doesn't match to descendant it is nearly guaranteed to not match with parent as well. Because as you should probably know children share DNA with parents. In fact lots of murderers were found without ever taking their DNA but through the DNA of their genealogy. Most famous example is how golden state killer was found, they have never took his DNA as a suspect before they found him. So checking mother DNA would actually make near no sense if they checked daughter.

@@user-im7km8tq7j she could be adopted

If you like this, then I think you will like Mr.Ballen definitely check him out!!

@@angieou8127 had a look at his channel , as not the first time i read it in the comments on thoughty2 , he is good but too american and familiar . thoughty2 is on a different level .

Don't forget a few sniper nests for humans and squirrels alike lmao

or with bear traps, i guess?

affected

@@dylanwolf Thanks. I learned the difference (noun or verb) and used to be aware of it when writing in college. Now I just hear the voice in my head use the everyday wrong pronunciation and I'm too lazy to think about it. (At least I get 'too' and 'to' right.) It's the same with lay and lie (which is transitive and which isn't), and hardware and underwear (but not werewolf). I'll leave it as is so others can see the error. My pet peeve is "there, their, and they're", but I have to remember that English is not the native language of many commenters. But I have no problem writing a sentence that I have to put a preposition at the end of. So sorry... I have no problem writing a sentence where I have to put a preposition at the end. (Yes, I do have a problem.) I also love the overuse of parentheses. (Only as an aside.) And sentence fragments.

@@derreckwalls7508 Most people who make mistakes with they, their and they're are actually native English speakers. Maybe because they sound similar? I'm ESL and I have never had any problems with those words. Neither have anyone that I know. Have seen lots of native English speakers doing that, though.

@@dylanwolf well done

@@derreckwalls7508 you really wrote a whole paragraph just because you didn't want to change a single letter....

I'd buy that for a dollar.

that’s absolutely right!! even with meds, it does not go away - just maybe helps you to live your life more calmly. 🌷
