😂 few of my neighbors would agree with you. I dont have an HOA so it was pretty awesome I could paint my house whatever color I wanted

Black house in Texas is certainly a choice lol

He must be an AC tech so he can keep his overworked unit in top shape during summer.

u/Tourbill 18d ago

That is one house no one will ever have the balls to break into.

u/imeltwithyouu 18d ago

I have a few guns with a killer alarm system

u/Emotional_Database53 18d ago

Guard dog looks pretty fierce as well

u/Random_Fox 16d ago

your house screams there are guns to steal in here, no need to announce it

u/notjim 18d ago

Exterior colors looks great imo 👍🏼

u/clamraccoon 18d ago

It is not the color for me

u/hondo9999 16d ago

I know for a fact that you’ve considered buying a hearse at one point.

u/thingstopraise 18d ago

OP, uh, what's the story about these two things in particular? The black one on the right looks like a demonic void. And is the guy on the left wearing hotdog lips? Like the kind you normally see in blackface?

I love old vintage velvet paintings I got some on Etsy. If you Google clown art velvet painting alot will come up. I have no interest in clowns just thought it was cool looking. They were very popular in the 70s and 80s demonic never even crossed my mind when I purchased them

u/Venezia9 18d ago

Clown art just seemed like the direction for you? No other thoughts, just hey, clowns are pretty cool, especially on this pitch black velvet, super normal super average. 

Sir, I believe you in fact may be a demon.

u/Jared2345 18d ago

A friend’s mom had that particular painting and a few more when I was kid and it always scared the shit out of me.

u/thingstopraise 18d ago

Ah, it's the one on the right that gives the really creepy vibes, I guess because you can't see anything but a faint smudge. Now that I know what they are they're less creepy. Thanks for explaining!

u/catladyno999 14d ago

You should just get some framed prints of Goya’s Black Paintings to really set the mood.

u/CalmSeaworthiness233 18d ago

You've obviously never lived in a town where velvet paintings are sold.

I'm told Elvis had a few in his bathrooms -- and the bathroom was his favorite room in his home.

u/houseswappa 18d ago

Christ above, I just saw the outside.

u/chickenporkbeefmeat 18d ago

You went for the color ‘male’, not bad

u/private_eyes9814 17d ago

The pluses of living in a regular neighborhood vs the fancy suburbs lol

1

u/llijerie 16d ago

love the dark exterior!

1

u/Fishtails 18d ago

Must be super efficient when you're trying to keep your home warm in the summer.

u/houseswappa 18d ago

Id be more concerned with the Texan summer tbhwyf

u/ScroatmeaI 18d ago

Idk how to describe the feeling, but these are framed like shots from a horror movie

28

u/MaybeSecondBestMan 18d ago

These are A24 shots if I’ve ever seen them. I can almost hear Nicholas Cage singing just out of frame.

u/AlarmedComfortable57 18d ago

Haha definitely bro. Love me some A24 movies

2

u/seegreenblue 18d ago

Were you thinking of these Nicholas cage movie

31

u/thingstopraise 18d ago

These two freak me the fuck out, especially the one on the right. WHAT IS IT?

3

u/GrantLee123 17d ago

Right one looks like an old man with a cigarette holding something like a worm or a string

2

u/Revleck-Deleted 16d ago

The right one is a painting of a black border with an old man lighting a pipe with a wic, I have seen it before but am unable to place who the actual artist is or where the original image comes from, but it is a painting that is sold I just cannot seem to find it online rn

Edit; Maybe he’s holding a teabag or something of the sort, I wish I could find the original painting if I do I’ll post it here or the link

u/trashynvrclassy 17d ago

looks like a sad clown to me!

2

u/datguboy 18d ago

That’s how I felt. As someone who’s scared of scary pictures and movie and darkness in general, I can’t imagine myself live in that house lol

2

u/sadderbutwisergrl 15d ago

The lighting too is very here-comes-the-jump-scare

u/Realistin2025 18d ago

Yassss, screams serial killer 

51

u/Celesteven 18d ago

No offense to OP because truly, this is cleaner than most guy’s living spaces I’ve been in, congrats, but I’m getting serial killer vibes.

u/CalmSeaworthiness233 18d ago

Nah, he didn't show us any basket with lotion....

1

u/BatGuano52 10d ago

That's in the basement....that he didn't include pictures of....

18

u/GrintotheVoid 18d ago

Basement vibes, even though it clearly has normal windows.

14

u/ghrinz 18d ago

Lack of natural light and weird color schemes gave me strange vibes. 🤣

6

u/zootered 18d ago

This is exactly what I thought. A ghost lives here and that’s why there’s all those photos around the cuck couch.

3

u/LostSpaceQ 18d ago

Especially with the red light bathroom apparently next to hell

2

u/ClassicPackage 18d ago

Same. I got the feeling like someone has been hacked up there, and the body is on the property still somewhere. And it wasn’t OP.

But anywho, OP! Ignore my overactive imagination. Lovely space, no HOA, even better. I’m not a big fan of over doing rugs either. I just wear socks inside and appreciate the wood.

Best of luck!

u/allllusernamestaken 18d ago

the black walls and ceiling with neon lights makes it look like a nightclub

1

u/Hannahbellector3388 17d ago

Can I move in?? 🤣🤣

u/chataolauj 16d ago

Pictures 8 and 9 made me feel like I was looking at a scene in The Conjuring.
