I found the below article(link) quite interesting, it is about a guy which has a hobby of exploring abandoned places or houses in this case, normally we just see the pictures of the abandoned things and can only guess the story behind, but in this case he actually managed to find out the possible story as to why this house was abandoned, and who the people lived there were, quite an interesting read, it's 5 pages, it's best to read in chronically order.
