Mysteriously Abandoned In 1976, This Creepy Mansion Just Gave Up Its Secrets

1

Built in the thirties, this spectacular mansion definitely saw its share of grandiose affairs in its day, but sadly, its been abandoned since the seventies. Located just outside of New York City, the home is like a time capsule for a much more glamorous era — but it also happens to be full of creepy old relics as well.

Photographer Bryan Sansivero decided to document the mansion as it is now, and what he found inside is pretty haunting. It’s also an incredible property, complete with a bowling alley, indoor tennis court, library, and two bars. See the abandoned mansion in all of its spooky glory below.

The things around the house give the impression that the place has been frozen in time.

Signs of repairs-in-progress suggest that the last owners were in the process of updating the home when they abandoned it.

As the property has been abandoned, it’s also been exposed to the elements.
