Nice video. Thanks! The knocking was interesting. I once visited an office building at night. It was 2 levels and was being renovated. The person I was with went to turn some lights off before we left. After he walked away from me, I heard footsteps below us on the stairs. I called "hello" but heard nothing after that. We even looked around the building more, but there was no one there.

More like the "Livingston" mansion than house...lol This place is huge. Very spacious and fit for a large family. I only wished that a home like this could have been kepted alive and well maintained instead of sitting in ruin and rotten away. Steve I don't recall seeing those noose on the first video. Not exactly a pleasant sight. But great video (and camera shots) nevertheless. I always imagine in my mind what these homes once looked like when lived in and tooling cared of before the abandonment, which is why I love watching your videos. I'm always fascinated by older built homes from along time ago. As always Steve, keep em coming ☺

+Abandoned Steve (Historical - Urbex) Love your videos, great job.

I'm of Pa. Dutch (Pa. German) ancestry on both sides of my family and was born, raised and still live in Lancaster County, Pa. I was born and raised on a small farm, where I still live today, and houses and sometimes barns that were built by Pa. Dutch and are made of stone or brick often times have a "date stone" above the doorway to the house and less frequently in the wall somewhere. Often times that date stone will include the name of the original owner and his wife who either built the house or had it build. Growing up I was told that the date stone with owners/builders name had a significance to the Pa. Dutch other than just saying who build it and when but unfortunately I don't remember why anymore. Did you happen to notice if this old stone home has a date stone and what the date was on it? Great video by the way and as always it's a shame to see these beautiful old homes being left to be vandalized and fall down! History lost is lost forever, but at least, thanks to you and other "explorers" there will at least be a video and photo record of them!

Once upon a time, a nice home...

Very interesting video of the now abandoned Livingston House. It is interesting to note that a few parts inside of Livingston House seem to be in relative good - fair condition, whilst the rest of the house shows that it has been abandoned and left in a rotting condition. The Hot Water Tank seemed to be in relative good condition, as well as some of the doors inside of the building. The building does NOT appear to be safe to walk and tour through it.

Sometime, if you can remember, check out the door hinges in these old houses. My house was built in 1884 and all the hinges are molded with flowers, vines and other objects. I'd like to know if that was a common thing or if it's rather unique to my house.

@peterreckling7317

It meant the builders of your house had some money to spend for the time period. Door hardware was always more expensive the exquisite it was. Usually hinges were the last thing thought of when it came to design, but if they had the money for it, they spent it.

Really good work, and definitely haunted (or just inhabited :-) ), I got tired of those fake ghost shows both tv & u-tube, so I stumbled across an explore abandoned vids- man I see more stuff in one of those than 5 years watching Zak run, lol. I enjoyed the lighting and slow steady camera shots- very real, like I was there. Plus daytime is the way to go no need to go at night too dangerous. This house was a challenge though the entities stayed put - for me to verify them they have to 3M- move, morph or manifest. Plus this home had weird shaped stuff on the wall and hanging around that looked entity-like but wasn't, for example @4:24 when you walk in to that side room in the middle of the floor by that wood frame? there is a rust colored ball= that is a ghost (I know disappointing :-0) I had to put it under a scope to see it turn its head and move its eyes-but other things I couldn't tell @4:50 in the hallway midway on ceiling & at the end above door ??? WTF is that ? Its just before you say "something really smells". Its probably nothing but if it is...not good. Ok sorry for the long comment, take care David!!!

Part of me wishes that you would say where these places are, since you do in some of your videos and a majority of them are in Pennsylvania (where I live), but also as an abandoned explorer myself, I COMPLETELY understand not disclosing the location because it's pretty heartbreaking when cool places like this get vandalized and ruined.

A noose and chair equal death. The developer should try to salvage these homes they all beautiful. Sad as hell

creepy first there's the symbol on the floor and a noose and then the dead scent and the knocking or walking sound

What a horrible shame! It was a magnificent place.

What state is this? We have a Livingston mansion in Louisiana too.

I can definitely see why this place would creep ya out, Steve. Was it just my own psychic sensitivity, or does that place genuinely give off bad vibes? Shee-yit. Ya done good -- and actually captured what may be (arguably) the paranormal phenomena of the tapping sound in that one room. I couldn't help but notice that the whole interior design seemed ... well, downright creepy; everything gave the false impression of elegant space, but was actually quite narrow (halls, stairs, even some rooms.) Was that your impression as well?

@AbandonedSteve

8 жыл бұрын

As soon as I walked through the front door the first visit, it just hit me. I go into a lot of places and this one just had that feeling.

This house was big to start with. The Livingstons must have been very affluent. What a beautiful home: one of those places that makes me want to see the original residents in their late 1700's-ealy 1800s clothes. Probably not much furniture as this was before mass production and well before the Victorian period. At the end of the day (literally and not the popular figure of speech!) the furniture was very likely moved so it would be against the walls and "at rest" as our ancestors used to say. There must be some great artifacts buried around the house and maybe foundations of barns and other structures.. Maybe it's just the light blue trim and all that white peeling paint but I find the house to now be an unsettling, uncomfortable place. What with the density and size of the trees it's been a very long time since any farming was done. If the developer wants the house to decay it looks he or she is getting what they want. I hope there will be some salvage of stone and other re-usable materials. May some archaeology students can do some work there while there's still an opportunity.

what do you use to make your camera so steady?

A shady way to dodge the historical not as bad as Steve jobs method though. Bought historical estate with not being able to demolish the house specifically in the contract. His plan from the beginning was to build his own mansion since only the land/view was desired. To sidestep he moved in, out then sealed it up and waited for total neglect to ignore his legal agreement for him. After several court rejections of it's too expensive to repair it finally was allowed after so much time passing. Though I'm thinking his 7 billion net worth could have done it easily. In the end even he still had to demolish this and get his way all that materialized was a pool, not used and the family is not going to build anything on the site.

+Abandoned Steve I can't remember but, is this the same house that you walked through when that cat came racing out from the next room and scared you? About the noises in the room upstairs, do you think it was coming from the attic above or maybe birds outside pecking on the house itself? I know at my house birds will land and peck at my house.
