I apologize if you had trouble hearing Eric on why the place closed. Due to RU-vid's strict policies I will post the reason here in the comment section. Basically a family member killed another family member and the killer showed up to the funeral. A fight broke out, the cops came and arrested a few of the family members. On the way to the jail the police had to return because someone was shot on the front steps. After that the House of Wills was sued for wrongful death on private property. So this house has a unique past and future. Built by a 33rd degree Freemason, served as a German opera hall, owned by a black businessman when blacks didn't have rights yet, family sued because of a murder, and now its owned by a Satanic priest. Sounds like a movie plot to me. Show me some love and smash that like button.
Tim. 100 percent correct. You can't sue the house owner for a murder between 2 people. Just some of history that got messed up. Just like the buttheads that messed up that place. Then. A rich or well off satanic priest. I guess money and the devil go hand in hand. A priest of God wound need donations from a church or foundation to restore a place. They have lives of little money. As long as you have something greater to believe in that makes you a better person. I do admit it very hard to believe a black man owned it before blacks had rights. That is really near to impossible. To own something you need the right to buy it. Just saying at that time a nigro didn't buy a big house.
Dane lmao dude I fell asleep last night while watching and I hadn't seen the doll room part yet, I cant stop laughing the way you said " I think one of these dolls is going to attack me and... I think its this one, or maybe this one" lol rolling man , truly funny! WAIT!!! Hold on there Dane why don't you look at 35:01-10 to the left where that mop bucket ??? has flat boards in it and...*A HEAD HELLO*!!! Tell me you see the person sticking out of that ? Please ? lol
Creepy place and it needs to be burnt down, in my opinion. The doll room is weird and dumb, but the blue babies would have done it for me, I would have left the house at that moment. thanks for the posting Dane.
Overwhelmingly awesome! This place will take Millions of dollars to restore. It needs to be saved. Those civil rights signs need to be saved. Put them in glass displays and sell them. Important history abounds here. So glad you got to go. You are now my fave.
So many of these "deserted house" stories leave me thinking, "gee, if only this place could be restored ..." But not this one. Completely creepy, uninviting, and repellent, both inside and out.
This is one of the most well done old house videos on the web. You did an excellent job of giving us not on the sights but also the feeling of being in this amazing house. Thank you. Well done.
Anything that gives attention in any way to satan or satan worship just isn't good for the soul. I think you did an amazing job on this video Dane, but I wouldn't make friends with people like this Eric dude nor would I make a habit of exploring the places they practice their evil crap. In other words, don't feed the lions! God bless you and be with you.
Doesn't it drive you absolutely Bonkers to see such a neat house rotting? I know it cost a pretty penny to make the house look like that on the inside today would cost more than the average person could afford. I love the eclectic and eccentric art that people of the olden days had. Art Nouveau is one of my favorites for sure. Gotta Love The Roaring Twenties! Lot of hardship came from that era but so did a lot of beauty.
@ Kelli Clark probably some weirdo killed an animal in there or got some animal blood from somewhere or from a butcher and poured it on there, who knows ?
Urbex Dane....I've been into a lot of odd places in my lifetime, one thing to note. Structures with odd angles, special perspectives, odd lighting and acoustics can do some odd things to a human mind. It's just the way our minds work, it can put your mind in an altered state. Sounds, sight, smell can become altered. Remember, it's not necessarily true that you can trust what you see and hear.
Not even necessarily a blood stain. I just replaced my son's mattress, imagine my shock of finding a huge stain on it that look like an old blood stain. Turns out my son spilled hot chocolate on it and was afraid to tell me..Lol.
*The Paranormal Report* the following activity is just what I picked up on and may or may not be supernatural, organic or gluten free. So chill daddy/mommy and sees wht you think. Possible shadow person 8:38-39 the room to the right behind the police tape, look over at the curtains by the window. Orb at 14:18-19 Dane just finishes saying this is the most haunted room in the house then "right on cue" cant argue with that, Especially when a few moments later 21:27-37 multiple Orbs sweep across the upper ceiling back and forth. The Baby Doll room at 32:15 take a look, no paranormal activity was noticed but...wtf ? that's just wrong. Ok this brings us to the last but not the least of the PR section, at 35:01-10 please direct your attention to the left of by the yellow curtain theres a box or bucket with boards in it and yes *A Head Popping Out* dam! Somebody thru out a perfectly good white man, sorry. Yes that's a Ghost I did a close up and its not a doll it seems 3D and at 35:09 it seems to turn as Dane leaves- you decide. There is more but this is too long already, so thanks a lot!
thats not really a house..its a santanic building..kind of like the dakota,where rosemarys baby was filmed.those dolls mean something it was not just a collection..the house is pure evil and needs to be burned down.
Say in those doors especially since that many of them are from different eras makes me feel like they were the child’s toy favorite toy and they were sacrificed and they keep them as trophies it’s quite disturbing to even think about that
Should get Zac Bagans from Ghost adventures to spend a night would be very interesting to see what they came up with. Lots of money obviously went in to building all the theatrics in that place.
This place architecture is amazing though. Very extra with the balcony and the Egyptian theme. That art piece was amazing. But the satanic bits and pieces were literally haunting. Never seen anything like this place
This place called The "House Of Wills" was aptly named in way more reason than his name. That room where they kept the coffins?...that room is built in symbolism. Did you not see the empty paint cans, all those were set with ritual and you had to cross the line to enter! What were you thinking?! That room is being used currently! From the gyno chair with stirrups, to the dental chair in first part of video, did you not think it odd for a 'funeral home' to use such things?! That main floor is a ritualistic meeting hall for ceremony with a viewing gallery! And the crude wooden sadistic chair?! Built by a 33 degree mason is a huge thing and it is ALL for ritual right down to the Egyptian theme. Satanist restoring it? Yeah. I would watch for disappearing children in surrounding counties if not states. Better study up and I mean it for your sake ...baphomet and his 'friends' are there and your naively walking walking around in the lair. Otherwise, very interesting place to say the least that most never are allowed in past the first door and there is a reason for that as well. God bless you and I mean that too.
What I saw and was told about in situations like this is satanists that use these places tend to be drug users or drinking....not high up in satanism but still got in on a connection, but wanna be's.... trying to kill enough I think to get accepted higher up....they pray to satan and get voices in their head about where to go or who to kill....they obviously kill in these places at night but the body is long gone, probably the cops took it out.....they work in groups...I heard, it's 7.... but they have some kind of reason to kill that they get telepathically from someone they pray to for 7 days first so they like a place to do all that praying..... I learned it from a homeless guy that managed to get to know them....they act like teenage drug addicts, you would think it's a group of heroin addicts sticking together but they are there to pray and kill someone....They are transient and come to places for certain kill dates.....The police that get the bodies know what is going on....and cover it up because it's too complicated to explain or too dangerous or the satanic group has police that have rank and cover it up.....It doesn't look like they are coming back and this doesn't look like a haunted play house, it looks like they really did some bullshit there...they use places that are abandoned that used to be owned by elite , houses and mansions even old hospitals and banks that nobody else knows about...that surprisingly never get sold or bulldozed....as if they sit there waiting for some satanists to use it......they get in first as if the place is shown to them or waiting for them....they do their thing and go......the places I've seen so far on youtube... are always former satanic sacrifice kill sites under the guise of hospitals in the middle of nowhere, funeral homes, parks, closed down banks...even office buildings.....it's completely freaky that society let's these places stand after they are abandoned......but once owned by a satanist....if its abandoned they are so rich and just seem to lock these places up until they get some kills in....the location itself has their energy....and obviously really is watched by something satanic.....nobody else can really use it but I would like it if they had laws to make these places owned by those types, the free masons and elite connected abandoned places... torn down as soon as they are abandoned.....
Thanks for the comment with all your info shared Ouivalerie. They said this was recently purchased and is being rehab'd though. That is even a more disturbing if true.
Put the comment up at the very end of 2017...but to know what I know...I learn it from an enormous variety of places....Homeless, drug addicts, and nice videos also where the guys don't know what they are looking at....they think the satanists just passed through one time....some feel the demons or ghosts....the over looks the sites...some get injuries for no reason, and think a ghost did it...more likely a demon...Ghosts are wanna be demons to never get born again....or people in waiting room frequency matched waiting for bodies again...A demon is more than one thing...can be mind control by high level government or an entity behind some kind of computer that can send dreams and his job is overlooking such sites of ill repute and abandoned...Drug addicts, sex freaks, and alcoholics are his territory and they watch....and do things to people....It's their job....They see like they got a video camera or using a possessed person's eyeballs if they got a full possession in...people get weakened by having sex with a non frequency match and it weakens the both of them and wasn't meant to be as proper in life...there are some rules to sex like find your match...... Demons operate on sounds heard that sound negative...and can be confused by loud noise so crazy young people like horrible music....By sound they know what's going on but appear to have some limitations, like you can be silent and avoid some entity attachments or they can't function....Writers do better than those vocalizing....to get information out...I think they can be faked out by silence or only making pleasant sounds when you talk or sing and will think there's no terrified territory to possess there.....People that aren't loving properly understanding avoiding their karma may be full of fear or anger....that's who they are allowed to have control over. There's a lot more to it but I've seen a lot of investigating people that need more information so I keep writing to them....they all know some....it takes us all to share to get more and more....Possessions mean the person has karma...those working the satanic side do mean things to those that have karma...some people know they are possessed or invited demons and other's...don't believe it....It's all about the road to heaven being straight and narrow and few who find the way....If you do find the way these things aren't allowed to be in the way...the problem people face is the way is too hard and the proof few graduates out of this matrix.
Is this Mr. Wills Funeral home? I feel so bad for everyone who had a home going there. Not really a home going soul trap in a evil place. God please let the good souls out 🙏🏽
I knew it please be safe. Never been in there When I was a child we had to pass it to get to my aunt's house I was so afraid of the building I would put my head down until we passed it. New subscriber
I agree. Very creepy, not haunted. The books are from the 1920s. The dolls and the electronics are from the 1960s. It looks like it was mostly abandoned since the 1970s.
Max Zomboni - Was that windowless architectural style common when this was built? Maybe to show off that you are rich enough to illuminate the place 24/7. I haven't seen much US architecture from that era, so would appreciate finding out.
That is one unusual house!! Excellent video!! As an avid doll collector myself some of those dolls in the doll room are worth some money! I'm surprised no one has stolen them yet! Thanks so much for sharing!!
These dollies were dirty, and who knows demonized? I wouldn't even have gone in this room. too creepy the blue babies just would have went screaming out at this point.
Delana Quinn+Agree,especially if I saw a Disney EPCOT(defunct exhibit now)Journey into Imagination"Figment"character doll my childhood favorite.There we're some old valuable collectable dolls amongst the modern ones.Most notably Mrs.Beasley from 60s📺show Family Affair all can be cleaned & restored.👌
I learned as a child...don't mess the Mason's. There hall are grand. I went threw the one in Portland OR. Once. Never forget it. Thanks for the vlog. Well done.
I don't know if I'm more disturbed or fascinated.Part of me wants to clean it up and renovate it,and the other part says keep it as a toadstool of a time capsule,sitting there at this moment dark and empty,yet with a different presence of its own around each corner.(All the statues and dolls...I'm in looovvvee!)Man,I wish I could have done this one with you.It's the bees knees of explores.The egyptian area would have sent me running back to the Mystery Machine with Shaggy and a 7 layer sandwich.It felt so Scooby in there...Thank you for doing this,I'm going to go through it again with ya 'cause you can't see it all the first time.
+Kelli Cox lol. This house, I think you can be both disturbed and fascinated at the same time. This place is different. I'm glad you enjoyed this one Kells.
Kelli Cox+Is quite apparent you & I have Scooby senses too...YIKES...Wouldn't set foot on the property.😬So yes in this case they would have gotten away with it.Was teenager in the late 70s. Even drove a dark forest green Dodge Tradesman customized van.That van and our gang in it would have never even then drove into that neighborhood.👹🚧🚐OK we're turning around going down to Legend valley instead.🎶
Overwhelmingly Awesome !! I have dreams of homes like this, always another room, doors to open only into another room again and always stair cases leading into another room or long hallways leading you into yet another room. Love the video, you really find some unique places!!......
Pamela Gideon OMG!! So do my mom & I! We always talk about that.. We'll say.. "It was one of those dreams where the house had all these rooms but you didn't expect it wen you first walked in!"... I wonder what that's about? 🤔.. Why do we have these dreams?
I'm glad you commented this! I have the same dreams often and It always freaks me because I've never even been inside houses like that. It's strange how you visit places in your dreams that you've never even seen before. I wonder why that is. In the dreams nothing bad happens but its eerie and I always have this feeling like I'm trapped. Opening doors and going up and down stairs and I just keep going around until I wake up. Then I feel like I'm not in reality for a few hours after waking up. Anyone else??
Dreams about houses and rooms are dealing with your subconscious, if you fear a room or find something scary then you are needing to uncover memory, if you do not, just explore, then you are searching in your life for knowledge or information that will connect your past to your present. You can guide your dreams to tell you more. Before sleep, meditate on the subject of how you will handle yourself if you have this dream, that you will open a door that will show you something that you need to know, , , twll yourself things along this line, , , if you get scared, that you will remind yourself that it is just a dream. These techniques work if you are persistent with them. Good luck.
Dreams about houses can often be out of body experiences you have while you are sleeping, where you actually are in a home exploring. I do it all the time. I have been a psychic, and experienced out of body travel, for about 30 yrs. now. I must say I have never appreciated my ability more, than when I watch Abandoned videos, because you are just left with so many questions about these places. Thru my psychic ability or thru astral travel, I can almost always get answers if it's something I'm really curious about. As far as the psychic ability goes on these things, it's really not hard, you don't want to think too hard about it. It's usually some of the first thoughts and feelings you have about a place. Most people are pretty sensitive, it's just as natural as seeing or hearing w/your physical eyes or ears. People tend to not even try cause they think it's hard, but it really comes to most of us very easily. Anything I can't get thru psychic, I can usually check out more thoroughly thru out of body travel. If I'm curious about a place I've seen on a video, I will make plans to go check it out while I'm sleeping. When I wake up I will think about it, and more often than not, info will just start flowing into my mind, almost like I'm listening to a radio broadcast. I don't even have to think about it, hardly. It's an example of what is referred to as "higher mind" at work. A lot of these videos I have seen where people have left everything behind, especially children's toys, have been situations where the family living in the home has died, either in an accident (car or airplane) or some natural disaster. There is no will left, and the house goes into what I think is called probate? I don't know much about legal terms. With all the paranormal shows that have been on tv in the last 2 decades, people seem a lot more aware of ghosts and the afterlife than they used to be, and relatives and friends just don't seem to feel as comfortable going thru somebody's stuff as they used to. So, stuff just gets left behind. They know the person might be lingering over them watching them. They would usually be right about that. I see a lot of cases, where as soon as somebody passes over, they just head right back home and hang out in the house for awhile. That's whats most familiar to them. They're feeling more than a little shaken up, and that's what they're looking for, the comfort of home. Also, most people are curious about what will happen to their belongings. It does add an additional creepy element to those places where everything is left behind. Seeing changes made, things taken out of the home, new owners , is often what helps them move on. A lot of it has to do with their spiritual awareness. If they don't have a strong belief in God and spirit, they're going to be more drawn to the physical things. Good luck to anyone who tries the out of body technique for info. You might surprise yourself how quickly it can work for you. I picked it up pretty quick. Sometimes you just remember a few words or blurry images at first, but don't be discouraged. If you keep trying, your memory of things will get stronger, pretty quickly.
Hey Dane, excellent video. Holy crap! That photo @ 5:06 ..........being a firefighter I don't scare easily but, if I came across that hanging on a hall wall, all Mr. Freeman would see is my vapor trail and myself headed for any exit. Be Safe!
Yeah that piece of "art" came from one really, truly sick mind...has me wondering if that partial "body" was real or not...sick stuff. People with heads like that scare the sh*t out of me...
This house definitely has a creep factor. Should be haunted it has a few orbs in video! Interesting decide. Great video thanks for the adventure! Keep the videos coming please.
Please explain why there was congealed blood in that old hospital crib? 🤔😱😨🙏there was even an indent from a little head on the pillow. That is really creepy
I love your work but I'm going to pass on this one. Satan is not for me nor is any thing that he was involved in and thus seems to me his domain. I hope you were all safe during this video. Satan has a way of creeping in. 🙏❤️🙏
There was nothing even remotely scary about this house. Just some masonic stuff for instance; Egyptian sarcophagus-like sculptures, morbid art...etc. Why's everyone being so hysteric in the comments?
Very cool exploration!! The place has such an eclectic background. I like that you didn't move through too fast and gave information and the old pics to compare. Subbed!
Oh boy you are a very courageous person. God bless you, once you get out of that place if you are religious get some bless water to keep demons away from you. The house is huge and creepy please stay safe and thank you for sharing I think I would not do it .... I will be in an 🚑 going to a 🏥 dying of a 💜 attack.
Wow Dane, this place was amazing. I don't believe in ghosts or hauntings but this definitely had a creep factor going for it. The eyes on that painting were so very strange. I know they used to take pictures of deceased people then paint their eyes on and open so they looked alive. Couldn't tell if that's what they did with the little girl or not. If Eric owns the building, tell him thank you for allowing you to go through and film it. Shame no one cares about the history of places any more. And watch the clowns the closest. Lol
FoxieEmiko I was fascinated by that portrait, thought it was one of the most interesting things in there. I was so curious about what was going on with the eyes. Very fascinating info you had to share about that. I have actually been a fan of post mortem photography for years now, came about as a result of my interest in antique photos. I've looked at a lot of old Victorian cabinet photos of post mortem children, but I had never heard that about the eyes being painted on sometimes. It certainly gives an odd look and very creepy if you don't know what it is. The PM photos of children can be very interesting the way they tried to make it look like they were still alive sometimes. I remember seeing one with a little girl where they tried to make it look like she had just fallen asleep while she was playing w/her dolls. The death statistics for children were tragic back in those days. I think they said 1 in every 4 children wouldn't make it to adulthood. So if you had more than 3, you knew there was a good chance one of them wouldn't live very long, can't imagine what it was like to live like that. Especially, back in the days when birth control wasn't easily available. You can see why they would treasure their post mortem photos.
I like your style, Dane. This place is eerily beautiful, and it's a shame that a historical society doesn't purchase it and renovate it to it's former glory. It's a very interesting piece of history, and should be preserved, in my opinion. Keep doing your thing man. Be safe out there.
Amazing video man , at around 12 minutes it sounds like a group of people are fighting or something , is that other explorers talking on other floors or is that something else. I'm still watching tho . Your killing the game with all the amazing finds you get in too..I'm learning a lot from your videos , filming at night is harder then people would think haha.. keep killin the game bro
Its great how your trying to act like you dont know your not alone. Its the best way to keep yourself calm and i mean,i couldnt have stayed as long as you did
Sorry Dane... I had to break the 666 like curse for you... I had to bring it up to 667.. lol.. Freakin creepy as hell.. Damn Pennywise costume.. FML.. Damn clowns.. And p.s. The young girls picture on the high chair made my damn skin crawl.. Those eyes were freakish..
+R Boyd lol!! I saw that. Thanks for letting me know it was you. Last thing I need is bad luck. That little girl with the devil behind her is very creepy
LOL.. I JUST GOT THE NOTICE THAT YOU REPLIED BACK NOW... DAMN YT IS GETTING PRETTY SLACK ABOUT THE NOTIFICATION THING.. I GOT YOUR BACK BRO.. LOL.. ANYTIME :)
I have a whole collection of Madame Alexander dolls that are going on 70 years old and they bring back happy memories of my childhood ... they are as sweet as Beatrix Potter, Winnie the Pooh or Little Golden Books ... They are not old and creepy at all... It's a sad thing that movies have turned such beautiful things as these dolls into something people see as creepy or sad That's why I can't stand and never watch horror movies... THEY are creepy and turn nice things in to something ugly ... and THAT is very sad
Very cool video. I perked up at the dental chair set. I worked for a dentist, so can say for certain that this is a highly sought after collectible. So glad it's remained safely in this setting. I hope the owner will renovate this place. It could really be something!
This was a well done video,no distractions or irritating noises,I truly enjoyed watching this video and hope to see you make more of these with such an interesting background and history!!!!! Thank You!
Hell no! I won't go inside that house. They can keep the portrait too, not even for free. Run Forrest Run 🏃! Where the noises coming from inside the house?
😬Place reminds me of Collinwood from 60s📺show Dark Shadows👻definitely a sketchy history in Cleveland's past.😨Well done & scary vlog.👍From a very superstitious Italian man👹house of the devil😈Didn't get creepy vibe anywhere in Directors living quarters his family lived a normal clean life.Was a prominent figure in Cleveland's black community.However DID get bad vibes downstairs.And it wasn't just the brazen shootings that happened there it was also the many people that wound up there that died a violent death who's bad spirits are lurking downstairs in embalming and sanctuary areas.👻What I found most interesting is that for it's time was built AS a funeral parlor and NOT an old converted mansion turned into a funeral parlor.At that time a big deal.Was a prominent family in Cleveland history as some of the things left behind show,for example the civil rights march signs.Those signs really belong in the Black History museum in Washington DC.🇺🇸
+An UncTioN iN BrAiLLe family member killed another family and the killer came to the funeral. After that someone was killed on the front steps of the house. The funeral home was sued for wrongful death. Eric bought the place and is restoring it.
Ah, that makes sense about the blood stain lol. I heard about the family members death. I guess I was hoping for something more satanic or paranormal that I may have missed lol. Thank you so much 🤘
Urbex Dane There is a drive through funeral home that had gang members show up at rival gang member's service. They came back to shoot him more, even in his casket. Supposed to be haunted too.
