I Found An Abandoned Alice In Wonderland Mansion In New York
I stumbled upon this abandoned mansion in New York, and what I found inside was a fantasy world left behind. It was both bizarre and beautiful.
Everything from the color pallet, the toys, furniture, and wallpaper. It felt as If I myself fell into a hole, taking me through a land of fictional characters, except it wasn’t a dream.
The estate sits abandoned due to unfortunate circumstances involving the family, and the sadness can be felt all around.

I'm always curious to know the stories behind why amazing properties are abandoned in the blink of an eye - for decades

I am as well. It's such a shame. It looks like it must have been a beautiful house once. I hope some day it can be rescued and that the family's circumstances improve in whatever way they need to.

Why is the table set if you were abandoning a building would you go oh people might find this place latter for photos lets add some cutlery and the walls are purposely ripped I know the difference from seeing old houses and I know that it would not be pretty there would be more mold, spider webs, and the wall would not have only a couple of sections ripped. WHY IS THE BED MADE PERFECTLY AND THE DOLLS IN PERFECT POSITIONING. im sorry but THIS IS STAGED!!!

I also noticed the fairy tail pictures on the floor, the debris does not match. Cool pics but staged (or 'helped' at the very least).

Such an amazing find. As an abandoned explorer myself I’ve been to this house and these photos perfectly capture the decay, beauty and mystery hidden inside. It takes a photographer as talented as this artist to showcase the captivating enchantment of this spectacular, historical home sadly frozen in time.

Of course it's staged. Set table, fresh flowers, made bed, poignant placement of objects...

I zoomed in to study the pictures, and they almost appeared to be drawn, or generated. STILL great imagination... but totally art for art as far as I can see.. Would like to believe, not a believer

So I'm a little late to this, but in case anyone else comes by wondering the story, it was uncovered in the comments on a youtube video by "Dark Exploration Films" titled "Little Girl's Abandoned Mansion". This home belonged to a family who hoarded over 150 dogs and failed to care for them or the other animals found on the property. The parents were arrested for animal abuse (multiple dead dogs and puppies were found inside and around the home; many of the dogs were fighting and killing each other over the tiny amounts of food and water they were given; they had totally failed to feed or give water the a pony on their property; etc.) No news on what happened to their daughter. The names of the parents are Michael and Marilyn Gladstein - there are dozens of news articles on the case, go check them out for more info.

There is a YouTube video about this place and the guy shooting video said that something horrific happened there and had to do with the parents going jail for something horrible.. but he didn't give the whole story and now I wanna know what the full story is. Fml

Absolutely Beautiful pictures. I have to wonder though what this house was like when it was first abandoned and how much of it is staged. Some of the items (ex: the brown bear and the horse) appear in multiple photos and everything seems to be vastly different, but equally elegantly placed as in the Exploring with Josh video that featured this place. I believe he is the one that scattered the pages of the coloring book, but I wonder about the rest. Also, wasn't this a relatively recently abandoned place? 2010? The decay seems far beyond what it would have been. Something tells me that people have been using this place for awhile for photo shoots. Also there's something particularly jarring and conflicting about the sad story of this house (for those who know it) and the sorts of beautiful vintage items they kept. Not to say terrible things can't happen in lovely places, but it adds another level of questions and melancholy. None the less, wonderfully beautiful and haunting photos.

I don't believe this is original state of the abandoned house(s?), but still, pics, design and colors are lovely! ^^

Stunning photos. But, this has to be staged. Well done.

WE need to know the circumstances of the sudden and total abandonment! It's important and imperative
