The eerie tombstone that was seen by thousands at Kirby road. |
We decided to go back in the afternoon the next day to get a better look... and still nothing. Finally, we saw an area that had a little gate that said "no trespassing". We saw a van drive in before us, but we thought it was more people just looking around... So I parked to the side, and my brother got out and went passed the gate. While me and my cousins were waiting for him, an older man in a car drove in and gave us the absolute dirtiest look possible. And then it turned into a scene straight from a horror movie. We tried calling my brother, no answer.
So finally my brother comes back (maybe 5-7 minutes later). Turns out, he was bonding with the guy who now owns the property. Apparently he was really rude at first and asked him if we were coming to vandalize and that he would call the cops. My brother told him that we just wanted to look and that we wouldn't touch a thing. Once he realized we didn't mean any harm he got really nice. He says that he always has to call the cops and kick people out. Apparently he said he's been there for quite a few years and hasn't seen "any shit". I do believe he also said he removed the tombstone. He allowed my brother to look at what was left of the barn, and my brother said that it was a huge "waste of time" and that there was a single broken chair inside and that's it.
Not sure what's going on at Kirby Rd. But it seems like they are trying to stop all the attention. I am heading back down there probably Friday night just out of curiousity. Probably won't go on the property since a) don't want to piss anyone off or get into trouble and b) there isn't really anything there anymore.
Hope you guys enjoyed the update. :)
