House Of The Damned (Suomieksotiikkaa SAATANA!)
I woke up early in the morning, looked out the window, saw the mist and went back to bed but couldn't sleep. Instead of tossing and turning in the bed until I had to get up, I decided to go out and take pictures of one abandoned house I know. I'll include the color versions of some pictures. Of a couple, there are no black and white versions. I'd appreciate it if you told me which ones you preferred.
This post is made in the spirit of the series Suomieksotiikkaa SAATANA! which is in the words of @eveuncovered, the starter of the series, about:
Suomieksotiikkaa SAATANA! -series is about showing the uglier side of Finland and it's bipolar nature. No glittery winter wonderlands or lush summer days, but the grey, the muddy and wet days. The dark, abandoned and ugly.
Here are my pictures from today morning:
These rhubarb leaves and the state of the house are similar, especially the black parts.
The paint is peeling but the plaster remains stuck to the wall rather nicely.
It will be more cost-effective to do a home inspection because some structures are already open.
Any home inspector worth his salt would no doubt take issue with the missing handrail!
Cobwebs with condensing fog on them
Markku, this is an awesome post! I'm so happy that I provided some inspiration for you to share your own Suomieksotiikkaa STNA with us. I am a fan of black and white images, but I would add a bit more contrast, and next time, take a few steps back so you can fit the whole house in the frame. I must say that the last picture is my favourite!
Thank your for your kind words and advice! Yes, your series was my inspiration. That house fit the bill to a tee. Yes, I also noticed that the top of the building was left out of the frame. It bothered me but I did not have time to go back.
Third photo is ihan älyttömän siisti. :)
And I like the spiderwebs too.
Thank you very much! All of them or one in particular?
I like spiderwebs in general. :) Not so sure about spiders though...
Kolmas mustavalkokuva jotenkin tiivistää kaiken suomieksotiikkasaatanan ja sumuisuuden. Siksi tykkään siitä. En oikein osannut kirjoittaa tuota englanniksi. Onneksi ehkä suomen kieli kelpaa.
No totta kai kelpaa! Onhan kyse Suomi-eksotiikasta. :)
Tällainen ajatuksella annettu palaute muuten erittäin tervetullutta.
It still isn't that bad...could at least be used to act a decent B rated horror movie
I would hesitate to shoot a movie in it unless the structural integrity of the floors were checked first. Also, there is a well in the yard covered with some pretty iffy looking planks.
Oh...maybe it is that bad
Difficult to know without seeing. It's been like that probably for decades.
No handrail is an issue for sure, and I would say the slippery moss is also not ideal! :D
If I recall correctly, much of the plumbing was tucked away in a storage space under the veranda in plain view. The hatch to that space was shut this time. Handy for inspection but not great for living.

Never good to hear about the plumbing being out on display :D
I can't get this thing turned the upright but you get the idea.
Looks like a pile of junk!
There's a toilet seat, a radiator and some pipes.

Thank for the feedback.

You're welcome! Is this kind of a haunted house?
