Exploring a 200 Year old Abandoned Plantation Mansion | Most Haunted in the State

It's unbelievable seeing all those dresses in that old plantation house. It's just something that you don't expect to come across. I personally love old farm houses and plantation houses. It's a darn shame that so many of them are abandoned and go to waste instead of being renovated. If walls could talk.

I always find it sad that these beautiful homes stand abandoned and falling apart. But I realize it costs a lot to maintain them. I always tell my husband if we had endless amounts of money I would buy as many older homes as I could and bring them back to their former glory.

That blue is hideous! But the fact that there are still shackles in the house from the slaves is incredible. There's so much history. It should be restored as a museum and the slaves who lived and died there should be remembered and deeply honored. I'm sure there must be records in the county of the enslaved with their names, ages and occupations. These old plantations are important to American history, but only because of what my people went through on these properties. They must never be forgotten.

I went on a tour of this house in 2013 with the actual family that stayed there and it was definitely interesting! It’s in Town Creek Alabama it used to be a Plantation and they said sometimes they heard cries from the basement!!

The small of stairs would have led to servants quarters. They would come down those, passed through what is now a bathroom, which was probably a pantry at one time, straight into the kitchen, without being seen by the guests. That's how a lot of these old Southern mansions were laid out, to keep the servants, mostly hidden. Really nice place, shame to see a piece of history go to ruin

The first house is actually called The Goode-Hall, Saunders Hall in Town Creek Alabama. It was beautiful. We lived in that house for one summer but he (AH) grew up there his parents lived there on and off for many years. We even hosted several tours back then. It has really wasted away. I can tell you so much about this place. The shackles were there when we lived there in 1999 (I believe)

It's hard to believe that people with kids lived in that first house recently enough to have Frozen stickers on the wall. The second house with all the prom dresses was wild. The statue you found was creepy.

Fascinating - but I worry about you and your team entering these places without protective masks. There are all kinds of molds and dusts you don't want to be breathing into your lungs. But yes, this is hands-on history!

I felt sad watching it. Knowing it was a plantation took its glory away for me. I do thank you for your hard work.Usually love the buildings.Imagination brings horrors to mind.

I live like 10 minutes from the first house the change and shackles were taken out in the early 80s by tourist. The room where he went upstairs the first time where the walls are unfinished that's the way they've always been as long as I can remember. I've actually stayed in this house a lot back in the day. And the other upstairs room where the little red bed frame was. The door that's on the south side of the room you can actually walk in the walls through that door.

The basement room with the fireplace was almost certainly the kitchen. This was common practice in old southern homes due to the heat. There were also outside summer kitchens for canning season. Most probably the laundry, sewing and ironing was in the basement too.

You can look at this house until it was built in stages overtime. She’s a true beauty. There’s a lot of history in her walls. Hopefully someone will step in and save this wonderful building!

To the ones that made this video thank you for being respectful there's been a lot of people over the years go in and tear that house up that's why it's in the shape it's in people just went in and just spray painted everything tore s*** down. Thank you for being respectful.

I appreciate you showing this. I could never explore a plantation home or slave cabin. My heart would be too heavy. The basement of the first house looks like a death torture chamber.

I loved both of these I am in texas and a contractor who restores older homes, the last one was 120 years old in Bonham tx I would love either of these for restoration - I love the outside of the first one but the second one would be such a classic style I could see stone mantels on the fireplaces and new windows strip the plaster on the walls insulate replaster (no sheetrock) new roofs on both, new modern kitchen central HVAC systems Both have basements and attic space so very easy to add central HVAC systems real hardwood floor new molding with crown molding - both need a lot of landscaping Do more of this style but also the bigger ones you normally do I love these but love the normal explores you do

I drove through a remote field in Tennessee and got the worst, most overwhelming feeling of oppression - even though we were driving, I couldn't drive out of there fast enough. It had something to do with slavery and oppression. I'll never, ever forger that horrible feeling... I've never felt anything like it before.

It still has shackles in the basement but it's really beautiful!🤔 From the first shot I can see my people in the field! RIH to the beautiful people who was forced to keep that dump together!

We are DYING to know more about about those evening gowns & why SO MANY were abandoned in that home! So much incredible history there, and what feels like a real mystery!

Astounding what’s out there and what’s found on some of these premises. Love your work, great detailing and commentary about the history of these places. Well done & thanks.

My house was built in 1894. It sat empty for 2-3 yrs before I bought it. It has been a MASSIVE headache getting the house and land to not be toxic. I can not for the life me, figure out, how it takes such short time for OLD houses to come to ruin, but newer hse doesn't seem to deteriate as swiftly. Yet, a OLD house will withstand elements better (wind, rain, storms etc.)
