So I was exploring a nearby forest with a friend when we suddenly encountered this weird house that seems to have been on lock-down for years, every possible entrance have been lock with some really strong iron plates, pretty much impossible to move. What's even funnier is that it's located in a forest kinda close to my home, and it happened that my family own a huge part of said forest, and no one in my family knows what the fuck is that house and who built it, nor who own it, even my grandma that lived in this town for the past 80 years and literally everything you need to know about that town have no idea. There is no report in our town hall about that house, and no post boxes or address for that house...
We are gathering some stuff and informations with my friend and I'll make sure to post an update when we'll get inside or get new pics from inside in a few days.
Make sure to let me know what you think about it and if you have any idea about how you would get inside, it's the first time I'm trying to enter an abandoned place that have been locked up like that we usually explore ruins or stuff like that...
Another angle from the front.
The "Porch".
Random things on the front of the house.
Front window.
Front window lock mechanism.
Front window iron plates.
Left side of the house.
Back of the house with a weird wooden door with 2 lock on it and a missing door handle.
We can clearly see a weird "walled door" as well on the right.
One of the both lock, wooden door on the back o f the house.
Missing door handle, the door seems to have been reinforced with metal, it looks really heavy and deep.
Long exposure shot in the door hole.
Second try.
A door to a cellar ? Back of the house.
Another window, left side.
Left side, door and window.
Door on the left of the house, lock mechanism.
Weird trap (locked), back of the house. (Air vents ?)
Trap lock mechanism.
EDIT : I can't believe we've made it to the front page, Thx you guys for your support, due to the popularity of this post and how much some peoples seems to be interested in that, I've created a Discord so you guys can ask me questions and get update on the exploration live !
https://discord.gg/VZ4GSY
So next, as you know one of the biggest concern I've got is that I have to make sure that it's on my family land, and thanks to someone in the comment who proposed that idea, using phone history I retrieved the exact coordinate of the place so know after spending way too much time on my phone and calling administratives I've got the plot ID i needed to get more info.
So I'll try to make a few phones calls in town tomorrow and I hope I'll find out more.
But no matter what we find out next days we'll get back there this week-end with some friends and with some equipment and we'll see what's inside even if we don't "break in" so make sure to stay tuned.
Thanks again for your precious advice and support, I'll see you soon !

MRW @OP got closer and around the house
TrumpRapesChildren
Nobody speaks of it for a reason. Those locks ain't there to keep people out. There's a demon living in that bitch. Lol
TrilobiteSushi
That much concrete has to be delivered, ask your local cement plant about it as they probably brought in the concrete for building it.
thelonepig
Oooh that's brilliant!
MutatedFlamingo
My advice
TheMadMason
Have you not seen the intro to Resident Evil 7? You gonna die in there! Naw it's cool looking though!
TinyRickRule
Agree.
stopitlucas
Did you try ringing the door bell?
asdfwasalreadytaken
Key is under the door mat...
TinyRickRule
No kidding we really tried to knock on the door but the only thing to be heard from the inside are chilling cracking noises...
AndTheHairsOnTheBackOfMeNeckAreTapedDown
10/10 I would have illegally entered.
M1nyan1e
Those locks are made to keep things in. I've seen enough slasher movies. Just move along.
hekton
No updates OP?
ASneakyTurtle
The markings look like hobo symbols! Google hobo symbol for your area and let us know if you can decider any of it???
TinyRickRule
Cool idea, I tried to look it up but I can't make out any symbols, but I remember that I saw other writings around the house but 1/2
TinyRickRule
did not paid much attention to it, I'll check them out next time. 2/2

An SCP is contained in there. You don't have clearance, potential D-class.
IceFireXD
That might actually be a forgotten Kieter-Class.... They intentionally bury those things so they're never heard from again.
Pizzzzzza
Have you checked with the city to see who owns the land or what that particular piece of land is zoned for?
TinyRickRule
Yep, but the problem is that the records are sort of messed up cause the area is highly fragmented between few random peoples and 1/?
TinyRickRule
my family which own a huge part of said forest, but as it's located in the forest plus that the records are old and not really 2/?
TinyRickRule
precise plus always had that sort of war between grandma and uncle cause of that lack of precision in the old records, so it's really 3/?
TinyRickRule
messy here I'm trying to locate the precise ID of that plot using family map so I can get more info by calling the administratives in charge

OP died...
PoopBuddy
Glad I'm not the only one wondering
ArtesiaLoc2718
Best if you explore it with a lot of people, it might be one of those places where someone brings kidnapped victims and tortures them
ICallPeoplesBullshit
Yes and make sure you split up and don't worry about cell reception or how much gas you have in your car. Bring one black guy too.
TinyRickRule
Copy that xD
RigoryMorty
I'm almost 100% certain it's some kind of military building, looks identical to the ones I've seen. Possibly re-purposed for something 1/
RigoryMorty
since the war, like storage or just emptied out. If you can't get inside, look around for vents sticking out of the ground nearby. That 2/
RigoryMorty
would possibly mean it's a bunker entrance. But most likely it's just an empty WWII-building.
serendipity81433
OP has not given updates, and the discord channel has been deleted? ......
guitarsbloke131
Perhaps its a house designed to lure people inside with traps that have been set. Also, some of the paint and parts seem well maintained.
TinyRickRule
I know right, what so odd with that place is that it looks like it have been untouched for years, yet some details looks a bit off...
steadyrockin
Good luck OP. Hope you don't die in the house of murder and torture
TinyRickRule
Thanks pal ! :D
Cosmogonic
keep us updated
TinyRickRule
Sure !

^Most plausible answer
NATA5
What country is this in?
TinyRickRule
France, ChaƮne de Belledonne (The forest itself don't have a name)
Maybemyboyswontknowwhothisis
So could it be something left over from World War II?
TinyRickRule
I know that the area was active during WW2 resistance so we had find some structures in the woods, but usually old and they do not look 1/2
TinyRickRule
that well and are likely tiny and really hidden like in the ground or in a cave, but could be, concrete does age pretty well...
IsmokedAweedOnce
. for the survival horror fan in me
Elpupperino
Solid poured cement frame, thick steel double hinged window covers... someone poured a lot of money into this. Make sure it's not military.
25A0
It doesn't look abandoned to me. Many spots where leaves would accumulate (e.g. in front of the door in #14) are quite clean. There is 1/?
25A0
ivy growing in the area, but none of the walls are covered in ivy. Someone is taking care of this place on a regular basis. If there 2/?
25A0
really is no public record of this house, then I'd contact the police and let them take care of it, to be on the safe side.
TinyRickRule
Yeah, I think you're right, don't worry we'll just get an endoscope in there and then we'll see.
IsmokedAweedOnce
also that hexhead screw is clearly new, unrusted, and paint free
peecs
How much equipment do you have / can you get to the site. Easiest thing would be to cut the arms of green windows w a torch or welder. 1/x
peecs
OR, take a sledge, some hefty pliers and an awl and bang the pins out of the himges of said arms. Kind of poor prep, as such windows 2/x
peecs
Should always have hinges INSIDE to prevent someone like me banging the pins out and getting in lol. OR you can use a carbide bit to 3/x
peecs
Drill out those same pins. There are lots of ways in. You just need a McGuyver. Happens that I am one! Feel free to comment I'll try again!
DurteeDaiperz
Definitely a bug-out house. Probably made it to be a go-to place in case of a Cold War gone hot scenario.
DurteeDaiperz
Or a hideout/holdout for someone that had aspirations of holding up places with lots of money.
TinyRickRule
Could be, plus, my town is like 90% of really old peoples, could have been for cold war for sure.
DurteeDaiperz
That being the case, SOMEBODY around there must have some kind of input.
yesthisisguest
question - I'm not asking for your town necessarily, but where are you located?? just interested in which forest you're exploring.
TinyRickRule
This forest do not really have a name, it's a part of the "ChaƮne de Belledonne" (038)
koopaya
Oh neat, you're French?
idkwhyiask
In france ? Quebec?
Aernal
Maybe it's used for drug trafficking? On the wall of the left side of the house are these weird holes. Maybe to shoot from them?
GamiCross
All I can think of is the shotgun scene from The Happening...
TinyRickRule
This is the most probable hypothesis as we know police had found evidences of drug traffic in this forest, near the location of that house.
TygrF
In Appalachians? Could be moonshine. Seriously.
TinyRickRule
Nope :p I live in France, in a quite remote area, close to the french Alpes, police had found evidences of drug traffic about 3 miles away.
TygrF
OK, not moonshine but do they bootleg champagne?
TinyRickRule
Haha maybe who knows, but what I heard was more about hard drugs...
SteamingTheCat
Is it on your family's property? If so, explore away. It's yours.
TinyRickRule
That the point, I'm not sure, that why we did not went inside yet, I'll go check the family map tomorrow to make sure. 1/2
TinyRickRule
Or at least that the owner is dead and it do not really belong to anyone :/ 2/2
PainGwen
Ok, but, property is not just forfeit when someone dies, so just, you know, keep that in mind.
motorsw
Might be a entrance to an under ground bunker/complex. We have those in sweden with hospitals and storing facilities in case of war.
TinyRickRule
Jeez that would be dope !
motorsw
Or the more correct term is "Had", during the Cold War. But yes, it would be very cool! Can“t wait for updates it you find out more :)
region12sec
As someone who doesn't believe in ghosts, that place is 100% haunted. Enjoy being dead!
TinyRickRule
Out of curiosity, what makes you unconformable about that house ? We kinda had the same feel with my friend even if we don't 1/2
TinyRickRule
really believe in ghosts too. 2/2
MutatedFlamingo
Perhaps it has do with the fact that it's completely sealed and no one seems to know anything about it.
TinyRickRule
Well, touchƩ...
ChaelruzClaus
It just looks and feels as if it were meant to keep something in and people out.
region12sec
Abandoned house in woods that someone took considerable effort to lock up and has no records of. Horror movie waiting to happen.
TinyRickRule
True, never considered it like that, that way creepier...
cheesyrox
Don't completely understand the description, are you saying soon you'll live stream the exploration?

ax2usn
What a great find! Did you get geo coordinates? Your hall of records/county clerk should be able to identify owner.
TinyRickRule
I've finally found the ID of that place getting it checked tomorrow
ax2usn
2 days later... how's your quest going? Hope you've found a measure of success in identifying this mysterious place.
ax2usn
Discord not working for me, invite code lacks four digit identifier. How's the exploration going?
TivoMan
Looks like a prepper house. Be careful, might have some booby traps. Some of those preppers are a little "off".
aychland
Some?
busybee
Was gonna say, looks like a hunker bunker.
terryr
Could be a gov't building disguised as a house. Like a pump house for the sewers. All that concrete would be expensive for some rednecks.
ronangelo
Could belong to a blind veteran. Beware of turkey basters.
SquirrelFaceBoy
Oh Jesus
stopitlucas
A prepper?
TivoMan
People that are prepping for the end of days, a huge natural catastrophe, zombies or whatever. There's been a few TV shows about it.
stopitlucas
Oh, duh. Thanks mate
GoodProto
I barely know her
anonjustforthisone
I see what you did there
justino37
It's what AC Slater used to call Zack Morris
ladybird2223

justino37
I know this. Was trying a funny.
LvAllen
I gotcha, Albert Clifford.
HadMeSomeChickens
Itoadaso
Kinda weird to have the hinges for the plates outside of the windows though. same with the cellar entrance. Wonder if its to keep people in.
Elecopty
IRespondWithSpongebobGifsUsually
I imagine even if you bust thoose hinges there will be 2-3 metal bars going across to keep it shut
Cosmogonic
at least that how I would set it up. those hinges are for the practical side, otherwise you'd have to make room inside.
CreepyPhlox
Well, that's even worse!
TinyRickRule
Thanks for the advice we'll stay on our guard, this is a really plausible hypothesis considering how this place have been locked-down.
Esch2
Could be a prepper's house, could also be a drug house. Did you happen to notice large fields of marijuana around the property? :P
TheJerkNessMonster
Consider how well the grounds are kept
TheJerkNessMonster
The porch is not *covered* in leaves, and is not overgrown. If there arent people in the house now, they at least visit often.
glassweaver
I would put weatherproof signs up on the doors saying you want to check it out and to please simply remove the signs if it's not abandoned.
glassweaver
.....check back in a month. Heck, put glue on the locks. If those signs or glue are gone, stay farrrrr away from this place.
TheRighteousIndignation
Do you stop to think... Maybe its locked off for a good reason?
DoctorTurkTurkleton
jumpoff69
DON'T DEAD OPEN INSIDE
StonesOnTheHill
Nah, why'd people want to keep people from just walking into their remote house? Won't they think of the poor (not quite) urban explorers?
Luubox
Are you saying that perhaps it wasn't locked to keep people out, but to keep something in? dundun...
Krympehl
resident evil 7 kinda crazy nutty shit?
Krympehl
I'd probably prep a good group of people and some firearms, during day light, remote control car with a camera on it to explore and look...
TinyRickRule
Thanks you, we'll make sure to proceed as you said. Top quality advice here :)
Krympehl
if anything maybe some dumb explosive charges and tons of smoke
Krympehl
... around before you walk in, just in case of zombies or something. I'm cowardly.
Noob3rts
By the way, the last photo shows that the house has been visited recently. Just look at the brand new bolt compared to the rest of the shit
axxeem
It says A2 on the bolt, so it's stainless steel. And doesn't look like it's been tampered with in a while judging by the rust transfer.
DanCrat
If it is indeed an air vent, it must take serious dedication if they use that as their entryway.
TinyRickRule
Well you're not wrong, but I've seen forest guard do that before so I don't know, might have cutted a dangerous tree that could have 1/2
TinyRickRule
and felt to the road down below. 2/2
