The Abandoned Old Mansion in the Michigan Woods

WARNING: Under no circumstances should you enter this property. By doing so you risk bodily harm and/or prosecution for trespassing on private property.

In a secluded, undisclosed Michigan location, an old mansion sits decaying in the woods...

Judging by the outside of this place, it looks like it may have been a fabulous place in its time…but not now. The videographers have called this an “Art Deco” mansion…and it sits back in the woods.

The little shed out back is littered with the usual junk all over the place, a TV, a crumbling doll house, walls are ripped to shreds, rotting chairs, laundry area, various mattresses that look like squatters made themselves at home at one time, spiral staircase…the looks on the outside are deceiving. Instead of a stand-alone shed, it must be connected to the basement, which in turn has the spiral staircase that goes up into the house.

The first floor has really crumbled and deteriorated to an extreme…how did it get this bad? There some real bad leaks, clothes still hanging in closets…even the stairs are creepy. The bathroom, now moldy dirty, and green with fungus, looks like it must have been pretty elegant at one time. For a once-majestic home, it’s just plain ramshackle and creepy now.

The videographers get spooked when they hear something rustling outside in the woods. They don’t find out what it was, but more than likely it was only a deer.

Just down the road, they found another abandoned house. This time, it appears to be an old farmhouse, and not so elegant as the first. It’s sitting alone nestled in the woods with a door cracked open, as if it’s daring you to come in. The inside looks like some kind of renovation was attempted but never completed. The stairway to the second floor is one of those narrow, steep ones that your grandparents usually fall down.

The area is all overgrown, with fireflies bouncing all around, as you’ll see in the video way at the end of the galleries. This is definitely one of the more interesting abandoned explorations.
