What's with that odd pool/pond down the street?
It has a huge fountain out front if that is what you are seeing.

I wonder how many AK-47 bullets are stuck in the roof?

Reminds me of the old Coca Cola heirs place on the Jourdan river in Bay St Lou.

LC has one like that on W Prien that took 15 years to complete and only two living there. Jim Flores tore one down in river oaks and built a monstrosity, need FU money for those sheds.

Haunted and built over a burial ground. Feet don’t fail me now!

Some back story and history of this place.
It was built by Mr. Slayter in the early 2000s directly across the street from one of the ritziest neighborhoods in town (insert your terrible Alexandria jokes here). It was built there because the neighborhood (Landmark) told him that the house was too big for their neighborhood and wouldn't approve the plans. To my knowledge, at the time it was just Mr. and Mrs. Slayter as their children were grown. Once Mrs. Slayter passed away, the nearly 18,000sqft house, which was already way too large for two people, was for sure too large for one. So he began trying to sell it around 2009 for close to $3million. Last I knew, it was listed around $1.7 million back during Covid. Mr. Shelton purchased it in 2021, along with many nearby properties and has built and extremely nice but obviously much smaller home on the property directly behind this one.
It popped up on my Facebook page under some plantation group. The above is pretty much what the comments said. The original owner built it as sort of an "in your face" to whatever neighborhood across the street refused to allow him to build one home on two lots. I didn't see much about whoever owns it now and is tearing it down, though there were comments about how much the city and parish taxes were.
Here's an old listing on Trulia with a lot of pictures. I wonder if they will salvage anything?

Four people were murdered in that house and it's reported their ghosts roam the halls.
The only solution is to demolish it.

I don't know how accurate that is.

I tried googling the address, but the only death that came up was a hit and run in that area.

What about my post history makes you think I’m being serious

People are such fricking sell outs. This is pathetic.
I miss the old ways. The old south.

Actuarially speaking, demolition of any structure in Ellick is most likely an improvement.
