I woke up this afternoon with a desire to get out and get some awesome creepy pictures. The weather was not working in my favor to get creepy woods photos
so I decided it was a good day to shoot some creepy abandoned houses. We took a long cruise in search of some good places to shoot out in the country (no city abandoned places, don't wanna get shot thank you) It was a beautiful ride just enjoying the weather and music. We passed a lot of creepy places that were just not accessible from the road which sucked. Other places we rode past and then couldn't find again which was really a bummer. While driving I noticed a MONSTER up in the tree and made mom pull over. This thing was so SCARY! It was massive, these pictures do not do it justice.

As I raised my camera out of the sunroof to take its picture, it immediately took notice and started to stare me down. I was scared it was gonna fly and attack us from it's perch. Gross. It stayed there in wait of something to massacre and eat. Thankfully that was NOT me.
The creepiness would continue the entire trip. We encountered this house on the drive and stopped a bit down the road to sneak up to it without being caught. I had the bright idea to just walk down the side of the road and cut off through the thick of weeds...not very smart. I was covered in burrs and cut my leg on a thorn bush. Mom got eaten alive by some kind of bug that got inside her pants haha. People started to walk down the street and we ducked until they were gone. Then we approached the house and took pictures of its creepy self.

I always feel very strange inside when looking at abandoned houses. I think of the family that lived there and all the memories that are left in this house that the world will never know, good or bad. Why did they leave? What is left inside? I was bummed the windows were ALL boarded, I wanted to get a glimpse inside. Maybe it was a crime scene? Who knows. I didn't get that kind of bad energy from it though.
Shooting abandoned places is so exhilarating, I love the adrenaline high after shooting them. After we got done with this one, we got back to the car and had to pick all the burrs out of our clothes. I kept getting stabbed by them but it was worth it. Onto the next place.
The second house we visited we just pulled right up to on the side of the road, I hopped over a giant stump blocking the driveway and onto the other side. I was greeted by HUNDREDS of black creepy cricket like bugs. I have never seen such bugs before. They were highly offended by my presence. They scattered all around hopping wildly and I ran through them anxious to shoot this creepy as hell house. The vibe here was completely different and sinister. As soon as I got to the side of the house I saw the window had been shot through. Yikes.
I was completely creeped out here and the air just kept getting thicker and more evil. I kept repeating "I don't like it, I don't like this" and kept shooting quickly as I could so we could get the hell away from this place.
The front of this place was so taken over by nature that you could hardly spot it from the road. It is very bizarre to me that no one has taken the trailer or even bothered to post "No trespassing" signs on this place. I don't think the house lets anyone close enough to do so. I couldn't get any closer to it than this, my body would not let me.
Needless to say, I was done shooting abandoned places after this place. I had my days worth of creepiness. It was an awesome experience. I look forward to our next creepy Saturday adventure.
