    MANSION IMPOSSIBLE – We Met the Owner of Canada’s Largest Abandoned Mansion

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    Canada’s largest abandoned mansion—the Peter Grant Mansion in Haileybury, Ontario—is no longer abandoned!

    In a wild twist, Texas-based Chris Fischer has purchased the iconic abandoned mansion and is launching a massive restoration project called Mansion Impossible. Turns out, it was videos from myself and ‪@RiddimRyder‬ that inspired Chris to take the leap, buy the Peter Grant abandoned mansion, and bring new life to this forgotten Canadian landmark. Chris invited both Riddim and me to come up to the Peter Grant house for a weekend to kick off his ‪@MansionImpossible‬ YouTube series, where he’ll document the entire journey of flipping this massive abandoned property. To make things even more fun, we brought along our friends ‪@Carlopaolozzayt‬ and ‪@moesargi‬ because no urbex adventure is complete without good company!

    Whether you’ve followed the story of this abandoned mansion in Ontario, or you’re just discovering the legend of Canada’s largest abandoned house, you’re going to want to follow this journey. From abandoned mansion everything left behind to full-on renovation—this is going to be one epic transformation.
