What’s in the bag, man?
No, wait, never mind. On second thought, I’d rather not know. Please don’t tell me. Really, don’t. I’m sure it’s a lovely… thing you have hanging on the gate. So lovely that the listing needs only one photo to convince me to buy the house. I’ll just be over… um… there, okay?

Any minute now, the zombies will come bursting out of the ground and begin their infernal rampage!
The Realtor will happily take cash, check or BRAIIIIIINS!
I think the fence is lit up like that because the guy taking the photo didn’t even stop his car. He slowed down, held the camera out the window, snapped, then sped away. Not that I blame him, what with the zombies that will soon be after him.
Managed to get a picture of the sign on the fence:

And he was never heard from again … we just found this camera, with these pictures on it …
It is the dancing zombies!! I am still waiting for the synchronized swimming zombies, I hear they are mind blowing!
O.K. So how would YOU market a CIA Safe House?
What’s hard to believe is that the agent didn’t even bother to check Google Earth for Street View pics…the Google pic is downright charming compared to this.
Oh of course! During daylight hours it looks all nice and pretty. Kind of like a bright pinpoint in the abyssal deep, all shiny and pretty and oh-so-irresistible…dangling just in front of those six-inch fangs…
Once went to view an apartment in a house like this one night. Found out it was only a bedroom with a bare lightbulb. Looking out the window, all there was to see was complete darkness, not a streetlight, just nothing. Reassured that “it’s really a lovely view during the daytime.”. Didn’t stay long enough to find out.
Old School Road???? Wonder what it looks like. UGH.
I meant Ellington School road. Same thing probably.
So, I’d want to know if it comes with the resident poltergeists, or will I have to bring and install my own?
2 Acres for only 129k? I think I could deal with a few zombies…
Plus, it’s a ‘gated’ community.
Nothing says “home” like a rusted hurricane fence.
“Two bedrooms, 1 bath, 720 square-foot, and your very own ‘other mother’”
Currently occupied by a family of floating orbs of light.
I’m surprised no one else picked up on that! If there are orbs outside, you can bet there’s lots more inside.
My friend has orbs in his old house. They can be seen only on camera, except that his cat sees, or senses, them all the time. Once she was staring up at the ceiling, then put her ears back and shot out of the room….scaredy cat!
Those “orbs” in the photo are likely water droplets, or bugs. Or a combo of both. They aren’t spirit orbs, for pity’s sake!
Shame. that. The spirit orbs were the only marketable feature of the property, imho.
Hahahahahaha! True dat.
Spirit orbs and zombies are EXTRA, not included in the original listing price. Also not included? Poop bags for hanging on the fence.
Notice that the “orbs” only appear when you use the flash? That’s not a coincidence. Nor is it supernatural. Buy a higher quality camera and I bet they will “magically” disappear!
Exactly.
Its probably mist. I get the same thing in the old horse stables because they are so dusty and my digital camera is a piece of crap.
Stupid flash. (PS anyone with any knowledge of photography would have turned the flash off for that pic as one assumes the intent was to photograph the HOUSE not the fence and the fence is the only thing the flash is going to reach)
I have seen spirit orbs in pics before, and these are those. Interesting, though, how no-one picked up on them sooner.
Actually, I think I know what that is. In the past few years here in the South people have been taking to hanging plastic bags of either water (or salt or sugar water? I can’t remember) around party areas, to keep down the flies & mosquitoes.
I know, I know… but believe it or not, it seems to work. It doesn’t eliminate bugs, but it seems to decrease them.
Party areas? like right there, on the fence- in the dark- near the shack? Its one party I’m not going to. I think even the flies and mozzies steer clear of this place.
Its only CLEAR bags filled with water. And normally its used around doors to houses.
Its not really clear why it works, the running theory is light refraction confuses multi-eyed insects like house flies. I don’t believe its meant to work for mosquitoes.
Before considering this place, you should probably check the price against other comparable haunted zombie houses in the area.
And given that this is rural SC, you’ll probably have a few to choose from.
The cursed Native American burial ground is optional with purchase, of course.
Probably located on Elm Street
It’s funny, when I first saw this picture on my work computer screen, I couldn’t see the house at all… I just thought it was a picture of the rusty gate!! The listing makes a *little* more sense now that I can make out the house (on my home computer screen). The contrast settings must be different or something.
*lol* Yeah the contrast is going on your monitor at work, you might want to mention it to IT. Often its a sign the monitor is going to die. OTH mine has had crap contrast for a year now and it hasn’t died
Actually I realized the angle of the screen has a lot to do with it. Looking at it on my brand-new netbook, I can see the house fine at one angle and it simply disappears at another.
Same here…but it just makes it seem creepier.
Update from work: I looked again, and if I tilt my flat-panel monitor forward I can see the house. I *can* see it even without doing that, but only because I now know it’s there. Screen angle has a big effect.
Good ol’ CRT monitor here, angle has nothing to do with it. Its just a crap monitor that was probably fished out of the trash years and years ago. *lol*
130,000 dollars for a shack. lol
Frankly, I think it looks like a bag of dog sh**. Of course, that would cut down on the trespassing.
Bah, haunted? I think it´s just that kind of pic you get when you don´t really want anyone else in the family to know your going to sell the family summer residence.
Please remember, before buying a new home, have it checked by an inspector, a plumber, and ,in this case, your local team of ghostbusters. *Cue little music*
Who ya gonna call…?
The saddest part is, I’m not fully sure I could even afford it.
I’m not fully sure they’re charging.
You know Velma would drop her glasses at some point.
