For it to still be relatively fresh the person didn't die that long ago which explains the receipt because why would a squatters leave a receipt in that odd spot I think the husband died years ago qnd the wife lived after with the property just rotting around her then she died not too long ago that explains why food in cupboards in date and I do think tho kids been in since then being dicks having a beer trashing it making it even worse of a messy state
Just a thought, if that person had passed away that many years ago the smell would not still be that strong, what if the squatter passed away recently in that bed? That would explain the food and beer and the strong smell of death.
Believe me, the smell of decomposition lingers for years. The bacteria in body fluids has to be destroyed completely. If left in mattresses and bedclothes, in a damp environment, the smell will be ever present.
Someone probably passed away on the hospital bed, as you say most likely the squatter passed away on the other bed. All the alcohol bottles would indicate a squatter as well.
Well I mean the original owner died in the bed, bloated and had pretty much liquified into the mattress. And I would imagine the stink could stay there since it has been kept moist in all those years.
I lost my wife to cancer nearly 3 years ago. As part of dealing with her "estate" I came to realise something - don't bother collecting "things" because at the end of the day, when you are no longer around, all of the things you buy in life or collect end up in one of only 3 places.... Friends, family or it gets dumped. And the vast majority is dumped because most families can't take on your "stuff"..
I have this awful feeling that someone lived in that mess alone and old and unable to deal with the issues with the house and mess and died alone. Heartbreaking
It's possible, especially when losing a life partner. I think a good portion of the mess is new(er) though. I wonder who, and why someone is choosing to spend time there even recently?
Extremely sad story here. Agonizing grief this man suffered and for people to disrespect his once lovely home is outrageous. Hopefully this couple is now reunited in Heaven. ❤
Don’t apologize, you gave plenty of warning. What a sad lonely ending to one’s life. And a good reminder to those of us watching this, live and enjoy your loved and check up on them frequently.

That’s a fact !! Hello Dave and Mark 🥰 So good to see you both together again!! Dave you seem happier when Mark is with you ❤❤ Love you both , I enjoy all the videos immensely, you are the best 🥰🙏🏻 Happy New Year to you both and your families. Please be safe wearing gloves and masks , you’re walking into dangerous places and watch out for squatters, they might be dangerous people!! Don’t touch things without wearing gloves, remember there are biohazard’s!! Love you both loads 🙏🏻🥰 I look forward to your videos even when I don’t comment 🥰🙏🏻 Flora from North Carolina

I think that technically depends on what, or whom owns the estate - or if that is known. If he was the last descendent, with no relatives, then it potentially returns to the state to resolve - but only a solicitor with knowledge of the legacy will stuff would know. And that can be complex.

Good to see the two of yous together again. I missed you Mark!! Your videos are so much more pleasant to watch again.... others you have been working with lack respect and have been loud and urgently engaged in rumbling through the deceased possessions. Hope to both you , Dave & Mark back as a team❤❤❤
It's good to see you and Mark filming back together again. This place is horrific! I couldn't stay in that house five minutes after knowing what happened. You boys are braver than I am and I have to weak of a stomach!
Maybe it was the squatter who died? Love the small thoughtful gesture of picking up the family photo Dave and putting back on the shelf. Well done. I often wish explorers would do just one or two things to leave a place better than they found it and your the first ive seen do so. Prob best report this place to the health authority tho or whoever takes care of this sort of thing.
It’s good to see you guys together again! Don’t become a hoarder Dave, keep what’s necessary and things that bring you joy. Don’t keep thing’s because you feel you have to, I try to remind myself that when I’m gone someone is going to have to go through my things. Have a wonderful new year, be well💜
Yes I certainly need to sort through stuff, I have also become a hoarder over the years, I did finally chuck cds in in trash this week, which I had been meaning to for a couple of years, 2024 is going to be my get rid of stuff year.
I’m halfway thru this video and had to make a comment. I get a strange suspicion that someone was using this place to store stolen property from retail stores and reselling… maybe that explains the modern date receipt?? Just a thought😊
Love you guys, the holidays are rough for me. I've lost alot of family members to cancer. But you guys are pretty much the only ones to bring a smile to my face. Thank you! Love you guys loads and more than you know. Comedy helps you to get through life sometimes!!😊❤😊❤
I love seeing you and Marky together in your exploring. Makes a heart happy, knowing that the two of you are besties and back to the Country Roads. Luvs ya both loads.xxoo
Very sad very happy you rescued the picture from the floor and set it correctly upright on the 'table'. I agree with the thought that a person has been staying in the house and by the expiration dates on the food it has been quite recent. thanks guys
Sadly this can happen to the best of us, I had a distant uncle who was a bit of a hermit, and lived alone from the age of 55 to when he passed at 89. He was found after his kids couldnt raise him so got the Police to visit - he had sadly left us by then for several weeks. In his case, his house was sorted, his world and belongings packaged up - and he had a will to leave everything to his kids. Clearly this sad example has no lone left behind to leave their world and belongs too - even the photos suggest they were known to younger people - who should inherit this legacy and resolve it.
Not everyone keeps in touch and many people are left alone because of how they treat others. It's the cold hard truth but not everyone deserves to to be cared for when they are toxic towards family. Not saying this is one of those situations. The trophy hunting material in the home makes me feel they weren't good people to begin with. Anyone who would pay for something like elephant ivory isn't a good person.
So nice to see Mark again. You and Mark make a great team. I really don't think the person who lived in that house made all that mess (well apart from the bed, so tragic). It definitely looks as though squatters have been in there. It's so sad to see a family home reduced to such dilapidation. Happy New Year to Dave, Mark, their families and all the subscribers. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
It’s sad that people pass away and are not found for sometime , I must admit if I was exploring the house I wouldn’t look around the room where the person had died just out of respect, but it also shows that when we pass away unless family etc want your items they just get left and trashed over time .
Great creepy show, guys! Weird! What I did to prevent myself from "hoarding" was to separate out stuff that I knew were definite keepsakes and I keep them in a nice cedar chest. The next thing I did was to do through all my clothes and what I had not worn in a hear, I donated to Salvation Army here in the US. They take everything. Then I sent back through my papers and bills and enjoyed shredding them because they had my personal info on them. I shredded those that I did not need to keep for tax records. Now I shred once a year what I do not need for tax records. Just some thoughts.
I shred my old bills etc by hand. It is excellent exercise to help keep your hands strong. You can start with 2 or three layers of paper & build up to 20 or more.
Dave, you and Mark found a gem of a house. Sad end, but what a life they must have had. The house just has such an atmosphere. You can see it despite the current state it's in. Thank you for bringing it.
the newer stuff like the drones makes me wonder if someone is not stashing (Stolen) stuff. the beer cans etc. makes me wonder if it's just someone dossing there or said stashing person leaving some stuff there for when they go to stash/retrive.
was the first thing we thought about when we saw the drones, someone stashing then when you said about the food being 'in date' it was someone is staying there (either homeless/dossing or said stasher staying whilst they go through what they have and possibly need to get) yes, I look both ways crossing a one way street, that is how little faith I have in the human race now. and very sad about the couple who's house it was.
This is reality, wakes you up quickly and let's you know your not immortal. Because we all end up at the end back to our maker. So live you life and do the things that you love to do and live it one day at a time. This house had me sitting on the edge of my seat. Houses like that talk alot. That was a good video Dave. Thanks!!
It's tragic to see what grief does to a person. We all handle death of a loved one differently, and we only hope that we are not forgotten about or at least checked on during the process of grief. Please take care, check on your loved ones and all the best in the new year ❤✌🏽🙏🏽👍🏼💯💯
Hi guys , hi marky nice to see you both together , such a random bungalow , probably been trashed and the smell is 10 years of decay and most likely the poor man who died there 🥲so sad Thanks for the exploration and as always you guys are so respectful ❤
So good to see Mark again. Very strange that there was recent dates on food and catfood. That tape recorder you found that you thought was radio till you turned over, we had them in school in the 70s. X ❤️
In Canada the recorder device is called a reel to reel. Not sure what you call it in the UK? So sad that our lives amount to this kind of decay!! I always think of the scene in Scrooge when he dreams that he's dead and the people come and rummage through his belongings and take what they want, it's kind of creepy when you think about it. Yet I love watching these urbex explores, I almost feel like we're helping keep these souls memories alive when no one else seems to care. Does that make sense? Any way love what you do, and thanks for taking us along. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours xo P.S. when you go out to explore old run down homes and you're going to wear a mask, in case it's smelly carry some peppermint essential oil with you and put a bit on your mask or even under your nose that way you will avoid any unwanted smells. just make sure it's essential oil other oils could burn or make you sick when inhaled directly. Just a thought ❤
I think the doorbell thing is called a long bell chime. We have one in our victorian era home. One night one of the pipes fell to the floor and scared us to pieces!
This is so sad that he lived that way and for someone to find him passed away in his bed. Great video Dave and it’s so great seeing Marky back❤ Happy New Year’s to you Marky and all your families wish you the best in 2024 🥂🎊🎆 can’t wait to see what you bring next year!!!
Omg that elephant table is so beautiful I collect elephants 😊great to see you and mark back together have really missed he’s smiling face,sad explore the poor man someone should have checked on him he must of had some family somewhere another fab explore stay safe out there 🎉happy new year 🎉
I've been watchin for years and Markie's never bothered - so to see him tell you not to go in there...! Thanks for sharing this place! I'd never see it without your adventures.
Hi Dave and Marky so nice to see you together again. Hopefully you family is doing well. This would have been a nice home. So sad to see it the way, seems like the homeless have found it. The cat food can understand if they are trying to catch a cat. Just heartbreaking that he passed with no one
The furniture tht cud have been saved in there is incredible and oh so sad, coz like you guys said, they dont make stuff like that anymore. The elephant table etc. These places are amazing time capsules. So sad squatters hurt the place more than it already was.
Houses like this make me so sad. Poor man was left alone to die like that. You know that there was life in that home, children etc and then to leave it and him to rot just makes me so sad. All thats left of a life is an abandoned home full of everything that they loved and memories...uh so sad.
You Had me at MARKY!!!! 🎉🎉 Just LOVE when you guys are together! He is the BEST sidekick!! Even better that you found such an amazing place to explore! Time capsules are my personal favorite.....but knowing that someone passed and no one knew for a while makes it that much more sad. Hopeful that they didn't suffer while they were alone. Hurts my heart to think someone was suffering and weren't able to get help. 😢
Hi Dave and Marky!It is really good to see Marky back with you hopefully he will continue to explore with you. That house is horrible I’m glad you and Mark had a mask on. It’s sad to see places like that it looks to me someone has came in and trashed it. Maybe there are homeless people living in it and maybe the food belongs to them. It is strange with the food dates . Thank you guys so much for sharing your exploring with us. Take care and stay safe. Love you guys. Xx
Such a sad story, but a wonderful time capsule. I'm loving seeing you and Marky back together again. Happy New Year Dave, looking forward to more great videos in 2024 🎉❤ x
Dave and Mark it's nice to see you two exploring together again. Thanks for this video, there were some very old and beautiful furniture in there it's to bad that it will be lost to nature, how sad. I agree with you both this house is a big mystery but like you said there must be someone living there, how do there stand the oder. Thanks for being so considerate and warning us of the one bedroom, I didn't look but you two were brave to go in there. Thanks again and have a happy New Year! Take care
I was wondering where Mark was and why he hasn't been seen for a while, then boom there he is in a video. Great to see him back and you both back together. Happy new year to you both. 😊
I live in apts, and about 10 yrs. ago a neighbor across the way died. He didn't seem to have anyone. I might have been the closest person to him at this time. Nice guy kept to himself, pretty much stayed in his apt reading. We used to exchange books till my bf at the time made a remark to him, then he stopped giving me the books he read. Anyway I noticed I hadn't seen him around, but was busy with work, etc, so I didn't investigate for a few weeks. Sadly he had been in there all that time decomposing. Weeks after they got him out, the coroner called me, and asked me to ID him. It was weird because they didn't ask me to look at his remains, but to describe him. Most of which they couldn't see due to extreme decomp. Everything he had was trashed.
What an odd house I felt anxious for yous.A lot of good furniture and China left and photos and that’s very sad.God rest the man he must declined mentally after his wife died.Super video Thanku ❤
I know the smell, you never forget it.I had to clear my dad's house after he'd been dead for 2 months on his sofa. He was unrecognisable. One room filled with empty cans and bottles. The rest looked pretty much like this. His house was burgled in those 2 months. They ignored him dead while stealing his TV. Anything we took for remembrance stunk like it too. It absorbs into everything.
@@dmreddragon6 Thank you, it was very hard. I hadn't heard from him and was angry with him. The morning after my 21st a policeman knocked on the door to give me the bad news. It 💔.
I think someone has been dossing in the house to as I noticed cotton buds on the table that is from Lidl can't imagine the odour that must have been waffting up I can smell it from here brave of you guys to venture in there.❤
Hi Dave and Marky, that place is probably more than ten years abandoned. I thought maybe the surviving one became an alcoholic after the passing of the other one, then started hoarding. The food and cat food doesn't make sense, if the smell is so bad how could they sleep there. That is definitely a strange one. Thanks for sharing. Glad you two are back together. Love from N.Y.
MARK!!!! It's so good to see you again!!!😍😍 You know, I have to agree with you both. Someone is squatting there, or was.🤔 Also, I live in the Philadelphia PA, and I could smell that rotten refrigerator all the way over here.🤢🤮 love you both. Country Roads ❤❤❤
Hey Dave & Marky, nice explore, that bedroom was awful where the person died, such a shame it's been left like that, but who in their right mind would squat in there?!! Happy New Year when it comes 💙💙
This was such a fabulous explore, even though it was also so sad. Can’t tell you how happy I am to see the fabulous twosome back together again. Best explorers on U-Tube x
Great to see Mark back ❤ hopefully we'll see more of him, that table with the elephant legs was made in India and is pretty expensive, I have a few smaller tables with the same design on top x
Wow David, what a mix this explore was. It was like someone is putting things in there to maybe put people off and try to keep them out. Still some very lovely things that will rot away. You and Mark play off each other so well❤️ How in the world can you do this all so calmly looking around, noticing things and make us forget about the stench. The things you suffer through for us. Last weeks video I saved for Christmas Day, I needed to take my mind off things and you & Mark did the trick. Thank you so much and best wishes to the two of you and your families in the New Year. So handsome in your new suit, by the way. Love your videos, and as always, please keep safe ❤🎉🥳
Am trying to figure out how many things remain undamaged for many y yrs. Apparently here in Africa due to presence of termites It's rare to find abandoned houses coz within a yr many are brought down n all furnitures are eaten up.
Always wonderful videos Dave. Please never stop exploring. I could probably never be a true explorer because even though I love the idea for one I dislike creepy crawlies and another is Im a big hoarder of the past myself and it would kill me to leave behind some of the old relics you find knowing they will either be damaged or taken by someone just looking to make a profit or that eventually they will no longer have withstood the elements and are lost forever. Things we remember from happier times,(the main reason Im an vintage hoarder) or things our children or children's children will never know and even with stories you miss out on the actual feeling hands on sense. Too bad that someone couldn't create an abandoned museum where a handful of objects from each explore could be saved forever without diminishing from another true explorers joy. Fanciful wishing I'm certain. Anyways thanks for all your hard work to share. Wishing you and your crew safe adventures always.
With places like these i think its a real shame that such beautiful old stuff is just allowed to rot away. For urban explorers, I think keeping a place safe from vandals while also taking things to restore and appreciate instead of letting them decay should be priority.
Squatters will live anywhere , especially when they can ransack the place while they live there , and that place has definitely been ravaged, and pillaged ,... and recently lived in with the evidence of that recent 2022 receipt found tacked up on the doorframe....
Thank you for digging into drawers to learn. It's not like anyone will return to retrieve anything. It wasn't long ago they passed but it's not adding up with how the home looks. I hope we can figure it out.
So sad. The bell you saw hanging on the wall was an old door bell. Our late mum had one (I think part of it is still on the wall) Nice to see Mark back.
Good to see you both filming together again , ..that place looked very sad ..Thankyou for taking us along , much love to you and Marky and Happy new year to you both 🥳❤
Hey guys I'm new to your channel. I bet this was once such a beautiful home such a shame it's been left to rot away. Thank you both for showing us and doing this video. I will tuning in again. Look forward to the next one. Take care both of you. Xxx 🇬🇧🌹🌹🌹
Welcome back Marc it's a pleasure to see you again! I do hope everything is going well. Now the "country roads take me home song" will be cool with both of you singing 😊
You said that the woman's body was found after death and that ten years later the strong smell of decomp could be still smelled, I was not sure that human decomp could still be strong ten years later. So, I did some research and found that the strong smell of decomp only last four to five days. So the woman would have had to died four to five days before you and your partner entered the home. No intentions of throwing you both under the bus over how long the decomp lingers, just saying the truth. The machine you found is a reel to reel recorder here is some information I found: 'What is reel-to-reel machine? Reel-to-reel audio tape recording - Wikipedia Reel-to-reel audio tape recording, also called open-reel recording, is magnetic tape audio recording in which the recording tape is spooled between reels. To prepare for use, the supply reel (or feed reel) containing the tape is placed on a spindle or hub.' My Daddy had the reel to reel recorder that he would put his headphones on and play his favorite music. Music by Farian Young, 'Hello Walls' The big band era songs and instrumental arrangements, to Benny Goodman 'Benjamin David Goodman (May 30, 1909 - June 13, 1986) was an American clarinetist and bandleader known as the "King of Swing".' The Benny Goodman Story · 1938 Carnegie Hall Concert · Manhattan House, Lewis Armstrong and of course Ray Stephens. He loved the music from the movie Sound of Music with Julie Andrews, and Christopher Plummer. The door bell chimes you were looking at and asked what the name was of, is a Vintage long chime doorbell called, a Ribbon Versatile.
Hi Dave and Mark, thanks for all your explores this year loved them all. In this explore at around 24:12 when you are opening the fridge you can clearly hear a women’s voice. Have a happy and safe new year .. bring on 2024.

Happens all too often with the elderly. They become invisible.
there are many isolated people in britain like this... they also die alone in their homes..... not everyone has good friends and a loving family.
The elderly are discarded in the modern Western world. It is a shame.
Edit: Not all of them, but a lot of them.

Maybe a squatter came in and that’s who died on the bed, it doesn’t look like the death bed was from 10 years ago.
And all the bottles I think some one lived there and passed awayx
Yea fr and there was a gta 5 cheat book and gta barely been out 10 years
Maybe it was the squatter who died? Love the small thoughtful gesture of picking up the family photo Dave and putting back on the shelf. Well done. I often wish explorers would do just one or two things to leave a place better than they found it and your the first ive seen do so. Prob best report this place to the health authority tho or whoever takes care of this sort of thing.
Some do Bros Of Decay made an entire series on tidying abandos they visited👍🏻
So happy you and Marky are back together, all is as it should be😊💕. What a sad place. Thanks for showing sensitivity. Brilliant job as always.

Probably true, but one would not get a receite if they stole something? Maybe just living expences
That was the squatter who died. Had to have been. There's no way it would still smell that badly after a decade.
Or it's demonic lolol

Very sad very happy you rescued the picture from the floor and set it correctly upright on the 'table'. I agree with the thought that a person has been staying in the house and by the expiration dates on the food it has been quite recent. thanks guys
Looks like someone is shoplifting or robbing stuff and stashing the stuff at this place,could even be their bolt hole 🤷♀️
That makes TOTAL sense. That way that won’t get nailed if the cops come search their home…
I totally agree.
Wow! It's crazy to think about how there was no one that cared enough to keep check on them or to deal with the home when they passed away.
Sadly this can happen to the best of us, I had a distant uncle who was a bit of a hermit, and lived alone from the age of 55 to when he passed at 89. He was found after his kids couldnt raise him so got the Police to visit - he had sadly left us by then for several weeks.
In his case, his house was sorted, his world and belongings packaged up - and he had a will to leave everything to his kids.
Clearly this sad example has no lone left behind to leave their world and belongs too - even the photos suggest they were known to younger people - who should inherit this legacy and resolve it.
Not everyone keeps in touch and many people are left alone because of how they treat others. It's the cold hard truth but not everyone deserves to to be cared for when they are toxic towards family. Not saying this is one of those situations. The trophy hunting material in the home makes me feel they weren't good people to begin with. Anyone who would pay for something like elephant ivory isn't a good person.
So creepy 😢 poor guy was just left in there. I do enjoy you and Marky back together ❤️
So nice to see Mark again. You and Mark make a great team. I really don't think the person who lived in that house made all that mess (well apart from the bed, so tragic). It definitely looks as though squatters have been in there. It's so sad to see a family home reduced to such dilapidation. Happy New Year to Dave, Mark, their families and all the subscribers. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
It’s sad that people pass away and are not found for sometime , I must admit if I was exploring the house I wouldn’t look around the room where the person had died just out of respect, but it also shows that when we pass away unless family etc want your items they just get left and trashed over time .
Great creepy show, guys! Weird! What I did to prevent myself from "hoarding" was to separate out stuff that I knew were definite keepsakes and I keep them in a nice cedar chest. The next thing I did was to do through all my clothes and what I had not worn in a hear, I donated to Salvation Army here in the US. They take everything. Then I sent back through my papers and bills and enjoyed shredding them because they had my personal info on them. I shredded those that I did not need to keep for tax records. Now I shred once a year what I do not need for tax records. Just some thoughts.
I shred my old bills etc by hand. It is excellent exercise to help keep your hands strong. You can start with 2 or three layers of paper & build up to 20 or more.
Dave, you and Mark found a gem of a house. Sad end, but what a life they must have had. The house just has such an atmosphere. You can see it despite the current state it's in. Thank you for bringing it.
24:39 To be honest when they went into the bedroom where he died I thought the body was still there...
the newer stuff like the drones makes me wonder if someone is not stashing (Stolen) stuff. the beer cans etc. makes me wonder if it's just someone dossing there or said stashing person leaving some stuff there for when they go to stash/retrive.
Actually didn't think about that
was the first thing we thought about when we saw the drones, someone stashing then when you said about the food being 'in date' it was someone is staying there (either homeless/dossing or said stasher staying whilst they go through what they have and possibly need to get) yes, I look both ways crossing a one way street, that is how little faith I have in the human race now.
and very sad about the couple who's house it was.
This is reality, wakes you up quickly and let's you know your not immortal. Because we all end up at the end back to our maker. So live you life and do the things that you love to do and live it one day at a time. This house had me sitting on the edge of my seat. Houses like that talk alot. That was a good video Dave. Thanks!!
It's tragic to see what grief does to a person. We all handle death of a loved one differently, and we only hope that we are not forgotten about or at least checked on during the process of grief. Please take care, check on your loved ones and all the best in the new year ❤✌🏽🙏🏽👍🏼💯💯
Another great explore although sad. Nice to see mark exploring again. I've missed him
Hi guys , hi marky nice to see you both together , such a random bungalow , probably been trashed and the smell is 10 years of decay and most likely the poor man who died there 🥲so sad
Thanks for the exploration and as always you guys are so respectful ❤
So good to see Mark again. Very strange that there was recent dates on food and catfood. That tape recorder you found that you thought was radio till you turned over, we had them in school in the 70s. X ❤️
Guys you should have gloves on in that room it’s contaminated please take care. Have protection on. 🙏🏻
In Canada the recorder device is called a reel to reel. Not sure what you call it in the UK? So sad that our lives amount to this kind of decay!! I always think of the scene in Scrooge when he dreams that he's dead and the people come and rummage through his belongings and take what they want, it's kind of creepy when you think about it. Yet I love watching these urbex explores, I almost feel like we're helping keep these souls memories alive when no one else seems to care. Does that make sense? Any way love what you do, and thanks for taking us along. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours xo P.S. when you go out to explore old run down homes and you're going to wear a mask, in case it's smelly carry some peppermint essential oil with you and put a bit on your mask or even under your nose that way you will avoid any unwanted smells. just make sure it's essential oil other oils could burn or make you sick when inhaled directly. Just a thought ❤
Vicks vaporub also helps battle unwanted smells
It's called a reel to reel in the United States as well. I like to learn the history of the house and what happened.
@user-rx1ek9xm3p yes, I agree about the vaporub. My mortician friend uses that to combat the smell of corpses when preparing them for funerals.
Yes it's also called a reel to reel in the UK too.
I think the doorbell thing is called a long bell chime. We have one in our victorian era home. One night one of the pipes fell to the floor and scared us to pieces!
This is so sad that he lived that way and for someone to find him passed away in his bed. Great video Dave and it’s so great seeing Marky back❤ Happy New Year’s to you Marky and all your families wish you the best in 2024 🥂🎊🎆 can’t wait to see what you bring next year!!!
Mark!!! You have been missed! No one does these videos like the two of you. Sure hope to see more of you both in the future! ❤
How great to see mark missed you both together. Sad that no one has gone in and removed the things where the person died .
Poor woman missed him so much. She thought she needed stuff to make him happy but it didn't. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 For her soul
Again great to see you both together again keep it up hope you and Mark family are good. Happy New year
Welcome back Mark. Great to see team back together. Please keep bringing us these great videos.xx
put some gloves on dude you touched the entire house even the floor lol
Omg that elephant table is so beautiful I collect elephants 😊great to see you and mark back together have really missed he’s smiling face,sad explore the poor man someone should have checked on him he must of had some family somewhere another fab explore stay safe out there 🎉happy new year 🎉
I've been watchin for years and Markie's never bothered - so to see him tell you not to go in there...!
Thanks for sharing this place! I'd never see it without your adventures.
Good to see you and Mark together again, besafe 😊
Hi Dave and Marky so nice to see you together again. Hopefully you family is doing well. This would have been a nice home. So sad to see it the way, seems like the homeless have found it. The cat food can understand if they are trying to catch a cat. Just heartbreaking that he passed with no one
The furniture tht cud have been saved in there is incredible and oh so sad, coz like you guys said, they dont make stuff like that anymore. The elephant table etc. These places are amazing time capsules. So sad squatters hurt the place more than it already was.
Houses like this make me so sad. Poor man was left alone to die like that. You know that there was life in that home, children etc and then to leave it and him to rot just makes me so sad. All thats left of a life is an abandoned home full of everything that they loved and memories...uh so sad.
Marky Mark!! Brilliant to see you back 🥳❤️. Great explore, what a strange and very creepy place, but so interesting, cannot work it out!
Great to see Mark out with you again Dave , the country roads duo back together.. Happy New Year to you both x
You Had me at MARKY!!!! 🎉🎉 Just LOVE when you guys are together! He is the BEST sidekick!!
Even better that you found such an amazing place to explore! Time capsules are my personal favorite.....but knowing that someone passed and no one knew for a while makes it that much more sad. Hopeful that they didn't suffer while they were alone. Hurts my heart to think someone was suffering and weren't able to get help. 😢
Hi Dave and Marky!It is really good to see Marky back with you hopefully he will continue to explore with you. That house is horrible I’m glad you and Mark had a mask on. It’s sad to see places like that it looks to me someone has came in and trashed it. Maybe there are homeless people living in it and maybe the food belongs to them. It is strange with the food dates . Thank you guys so much for sharing your exploring with us. Take care and stay safe. Love you guys. Xx
Such a sad story, but a wonderful time capsule. I'm loving seeing you and Marky back together again. Happy New Year Dave, looking forward to more great videos in 2024 🎉❤ x
Dave and Mark it's nice to see you two exploring together again. Thanks for this video, there were some very old and beautiful furniture in there it's to bad that it will be lost to nature, how sad. I agree with you both this house is a big mystery but like you said there must be someone living there, how do there stand the oder. Thanks for being so considerate and warning us of the one bedroom, I didn't look but you two were brave to go in there. Thanks again and have a happy New Year! Take care
Massive thank you for supporting us xx
I was wondering where Mark was and why he hasn't been seen for a while, then boom there he is in a video. Great to see him back and you both back together. Happy new year to you both. 😊
Lovely to see marky back think all the random boxes and receipts etc from someone storing stolen goods from I expect x great video thanks guys x ❤
I'm so happy to see you both together again! 💕 . This is so sad. Pity no family or friends to keep some of the things for keepsake and remember
It’s sad to see what happens when there is no family or they don’t want to deal with the home 😢 Welcome back Mark!
I live in apts, and about 10 yrs. ago a neighbor across the way died. He didn't seem to have anyone. I might have been the closest person to him at this time. Nice guy kept to himself, pretty much stayed in his apt reading. We used to exchange books till my bf at the time made a remark to him, then he stopped giving me the books he read.
Anyway I noticed I hadn't seen him around, but was busy with work, etc, so I didn't investigate for a few weeks. Sadly he had been in there all that time decomposing.
Weeks after they got him out, the coroner called me, and asked me to ID him. It was weird because they didn't ask me to look at his remains, but to describe him. Most of which they couldn't see due to extreme decomp. Everything he had was trashed.
Just wanna say what a great treat this is, Marky in the video three times in a row (or close to). Always love to see ya Mark. Carry on exploring.
Not to be that person, but @26:41, it sounds like a whispered and aggressive "Get Out!" Following the knock sound.
just noticed that. This is now a paranormal channel for me
I heard it too slowly “get out”
The camera would have mysteriously ended up in my bag😳
What an odd house I felt anxious for yous.A lot of good furniture and China left and photos and that’s very sad.God rest the man he must declined mentally after his wife died.Super video Thanku ❤
Happy to see Mark back again , you both are awesome together .
I know the smell, you never forget it.I had to clear my dad's house after he'd been dead for 2 months on his sofa. He was unrecognisable. One room filled with empty cans and bottles. The rest looked pretty much like this. His house was burgled in those 2 months. They ignored him dead while stealing his TV. Anything we took for remembrance stunk like it too. It absorbs into everything.
That must have been a very hard undertaking. Just the smell alone is overwhelming.
So sorry you had to see, and deal with all that.
@@dmreddragon6 Thank you, it was very hard. I hadn't heard from him and was angry with him. The morning after my 21st a policeman knocked on the door to give me the bad news. It 💔.
U no what I like bout when u go into abandoned buildings is that ur always very respectful leave it like u found it n don’t steal from the property ❤
I think someone has been dossing in the house to as I noticed cotton buds on the table that is from Lidl can't imagine the odour that must have been waffting up I can smell it from here brave of you guys to venture in there.❤
Hello Marky and Dave! Good to see y'all together again. Hopefully, Marky will be back more often. Love ya's!
Hi Dave and Marky, that place is probably more than ten years abandoned. I thought maybe the surviving one became an alcoholic after the passing of the other one, then started hoarding. The food and cat food doesn't make sense, if the smell is so bad how could they sleep there. That is definitely a strange one. Thanks for sharing. Glad you two are back together. Love from N.Y.
Great to see you both together again. Such a sad ending for the couple and their home.
MARK!!!! It's so good to see you again!!!😍😍 You know, I have to agree with you both. Someone is squatting there, or was.🤔 Also, I live in the Philadelphia PA, and I could smell that rotten refrigerator all the way over here.🤢🤮 love you both. Country Roads ❤❤❤
You never seem to amaze me dave you find some amazing beautiful and old places love it when it's you and mark❤ all the best to you both for 2024 ❤
If your smelling putrefaction that's several weeks old not years old well done on the explore good to see you two back out together
I love love love seeing marky back
Hey Dave & Marky, nice explore, that bedroom was awful where the person died, such a shame it's been left like that, but who in their right mind would squat in there?!! Happy New Year when it comes 💙💙
So good to see Marky back with you. Brilliant video as usual. 😊
This was such a fabulous explore, even though it was also so sad. Can’t tell you how happy I am to see the fabulous twosome back together again. Best explorers on U-Tube x
Great to see Mark back ❤ hopefully we'll see more of him, that table with the elephant legs was made in India and is pretty expensive, I have a few smaller tables with the same design on top x
Wow David, what a mix this explore was. It was like someone is putting things in there to maybe put people off and try to keep them out. Still some very lovely things that will rot away. You and Mark play off each other so well❤️ How in the world can you do this all so calmly looking around, noticing things and make us forget about the stench. The things you suffer through for us. Last weeks video I saved for Christmas Day, I needed to take my mind off things and you & Mark did the trick. Thank you so much and best wishes to the two of you and your families in the New Year. So handsome in your new suit, by the way. Love your videos, and as always, please keep safe ❤🎉🥳
Open the fridge to freshen the air around the dead body room
Someone's worst nightmare to die alone.😢❤❤
It's so scary isn't it
I think I will die alone. I have no one.
Am trying to figure out how many things remain undamaged for many y yrs. Apparently here in Africa due to presence of termites
It's rare to find abandoned houses coz within a yr many are brought down n all furnitures are eaten up.
Always wonderful videos Dave. Please never stop exploring. I could probably never be a true explorer because even though I love the idea for one I dislike creepy crawlies and another is Im a big hoarder of the past myself and it would kill me to leave behind some of the old relics you find knowing they will either be damaged or taken by someone just looking to make a profit or that eventually they will no longer have withstood the elements and are lost forever. Things we remember from happier times,(the main reason Im an vintage hoarder) or things our children or children's children will never know and even with stories you miss out on the actual feeling hands on sense. Too bad that someone couldn't create an abandoned museum where a handful of objects from each explore could be saved forever without diminishing from another true explorers joy. Fanciful wishing I'm certain. Anyways thanks for all your hard work to share. Wishing you and your crew safe adventures always.
With places like these i think its a real shame that such beautiful old stuff is just allowed to rot away. For urban explorers, I think keeping a place safe from vandals while also taking things to restore and appreciate instead of letting them decay should be priority.
Squatters will live anywhere , especially when they can ransack the place while they live there , and that place has definitely been ravaged, and pillaged ,... and recently lived in with the evidence of that recent 2022 receipt found tacked up on the doorframe....
Thank you for digging into drawers to learn. It's not like anyone will return to retrieve anything.
It wasn't long ago they passed but it's not adding up with how the home looks. I hope we can figure it out.
Mysterious house. Hope the poor cat is ok. Nice to see Mark back.
Good to see you both together again. Such a sad explore. Have a very Happy and Healthy New Year, both of you.
Thanks for The Evil Dead reference, it definitely got a chuckle.
That would have been a very nice house once.
So sad. The bell you saw hanging on the wall was an old door bell. Our late mum had one (I think part of it is still on the wall) Nice to see Mark back.
Great find, lovely seeing you and Mark back together perfect duo
the smell reached ,me all the way to South Africa. Weird place though
Good to see you both filming together again , ..that place looked very sad ..Thankyou for taking us along , much love to you and Marky and Happy new year to you both 🥳❤
Hey guys I'm new to your channel. I bet this was once such a beautiful home such a shame it's been left to rot away. Thank you both for showing us and doing this video. I will tuning in again. Look forward to the next one. Take care both of you. Xxx 🇬🇧🌹🌹🌹
Welcome back Marc it's a pleasure to see you again! I do hope everything is going well.
Now the "country roads take me home song" will be cool with both of you singing 😊
Sorry AutoCorrect I think misspelled Marc 🤦♀️ I meant Mark naturally 😉
You said that the woman's body was found after death and that ten years later the strong smell of decomp could be still smelled, I was not sure that human decomp could still be strong ten years later. So, I did some research and found that the strong smell of decomp only last four to five days. So the woman would have had to died four to five days before you and your partner entered the home. No intentions of throwing you both under the bus over how long the decomp lingers, just saying the truth.
The machine you found is a reel to reel recorder here is some information I found:
'What is reel-to-reel machine?
Reel-to-reel audio tape recording - Wikipedia
Reel-to-reel audio tape recording, also called open-reel recording, is magnetic tape audio recording in which the recording tape is spooled between reels. To prepare for use, the supply reel (or feed reel) containing the tape is placed on a spindle or hub.'
My Daddy had the reel to reel recorder that he would put his headphones on and play his favorite music. Music by Farian Young, 'Hello Walls' The big band era songs and instrumental arrangements, to Benny Goodman 'Benjamin David Goodman (May 30, 1909 - June 13, 1986) was an American clarinetist and bandleader known as the "King of Swing".'
The Benny Goodman Story · 1938 Carnegie Hall Concert · Manhattan House, Lewis Armstrong and of course Ray Stephens. He loved the music from the movie Sound of Music with Julie Andrews, and Christopher Plummer.
The door bell chimes you were looking at and asked what the name was of, is a Vintage long chime doorbell called, a Ribbon Versatile.
Hi Dave and Mark, thanks for all your explores this year loved them all.
In this explore at around 24:12 when you are opening the fridge you can clearly hear a women’s voice.
Have a happy and safe new year .. bring on 2024.
"I told him not to go in there"
Wow, what a shame. Guess they had no kids. Looks like it was a nice house at one point. Take care boys! Happy New Year!
Yay, good to see you again mark 🎉🎉. Nice find, bad situation, really strange findings 😮
