The people outside of Woodbooger weren't having it.

I'm a couple hours out from Fayetteville, if you bring your grandfather table home, I'll refinish it. I'm a bit of a woodworker.

I love how Boogie's accent changes within 12 hours of being home.

Im not quite sure what the the restaurant was called in the beginning. Wish he repeated it more

Funny how being home and being upset brought the southern accent out of him again.

If you’re thinking about having it professionally tore down. Contact the local fire department first and check to see if they would be interested in practicing putting out fires with the house. It would be a way to do some good and a fitting end the home.

Hey Boogie, I know there’s a lot of emotions going on here, and to see you hurting isn’t nice, it never is. I do wish you would have visited with someone older and maybe a little more mature with a lot more empathy than Jussy, I really hope if you didn’t collect all the personal photos and awards that, whom ever you have to sort the estate out on your behalf that you ask them to save these things and mail them to you.... you never ever have to open that box, but I wouldn’t want you to feel regret or shame 10 years down the line from not keeping anything, you and your siblings suffered immensely, just don’t give yourself ever another reason to regret, take care lovely.

Hey Jesse, when boogie says "look over here"... POINT THE CAMERA OVER THERE.

You've still got the land, Boogie. I know what it's like. This is the kind of squalor that I grew up in. Burn it. Burn all the rot out. Build something new for someone who needs it.

This is legit the most emotional video ive seen in ages.. Please don't be too mad at yourself.. You had a lot of recovery to do before you were able to come back to the center of a lot of bad feelings for you.. You never could have known it would get this bad. Im so so sorry you had to go through all this. Sending all my love, please dont be too mad at yourself

“It don’t make no sense” Boogie, 2019

Thanks for pointing the camera at the opposite of everything boogie was pointing out

Seeing that you went through all this stuff in your childhood makes me respect you even more

Damn, Boogie, I don't follow you regularly these days (nothing personal, I was just spending more time living your life than my own) but you are looking GOOD. I can really see the difference when there's been a gap of a couple of months since I watched.

Boogie you treated your house like you treated your body the last 10 plus years. But you've come full circle and it's never too late to make things right. You are taking care of this situation just like you've been taking care of your body the last couple of years. This visit was therapy for you and a good thing. I was born in the same hospital in Abingdon 5 months after you. I think I went to the same 4H camp and everything. I love what you are doing with your channel and life now.

This is actually scary. You totally should have done this in the day and had some proper gear with you. I was anxious AF watching this. Oh and yeah I agree the cameraman was shody and a little insensitive in this.

His southern accent seemed to get stronger in this video for some reason. Anyone else notice that?

Boogie as someone who never had a home, and came from a messed up family. you have been an inspiration to me. just because you let a house go and fall into ruin doesnt make you a failure, that house haunted you and 10 years ago you werent ready to face those demons. but look at you now. keep your head up man, just because you grew up there doesnt make it home, build the home you want, thats what im doing. I just spent every dollar i had to get a house that is in complete disarray but everyday im working to make it a home for my family, i pay my monthly payment on it and every other dollar i earn goes to it. it will be a long time till its ready, but it will be my home, something i never had. so that my kids never have to worry like i had to about where i was gonna be next. never let your past stop your progress.

Everyone there is giving you that look that says, "get that camera outta my face."

I'm 2 minutes in and I'm annoyed with jesse already.

Im proud of you for being able to bring yourself to do this. Stay strong man. Thank you

"This house is not our home anymore, its just an empty building"- Tom Hanks (Road To Perdition)

This is probably the most inspiring person I've ever seen. I cant comprehend on your story. You been through the lowest, at least what you've described, and climbed miles out of it. I adore your perseverance, you are amazing and your fans love you for it

Boogie, I've been following you since 2016. I lost my mom in 2015 pretty tragically and your content has been so healing for me. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your story.

I don't remember this part of Resident Evil 7...

This video is one of the most honest things I’ve seen on KZfaq in a long time, and it feels almost cathartic to see. I really get the sense of letting go of the past in these series of videos, it’s something that all people have or will deal with at some point in their life. Thanks for sharing this, it has more value than anyone may ever tell you.

I had a traumatic childhood & my mom was also a hoarder. Going thru her house when she passed was one of the hardest things. You're SO strong Boogie. It may be 10 years later, but u did it! Thank you for sharing this with us.

I think the mask is supposed to go over your nose too man

Thank you for sharing this journey with us.

mask probably isnt very good if it isnt covering your nose

I'm so sorry man. Whoever destroyed this, I hope rots in hell.

I can only imagine half the emotions you have gone through. Thank you for bringing us along. Do not ever blame yourself for the disrepair of the home. You did what you felt was right, taking care of yourself and your mental well being. Retrospectively you did the right thing for yourself, even if right now you have regrets. Best wishes!

I love seeing this side of you boogie! Thank you for sharing this

Couldnt've clicked faster, really powerful and entertaining series

Hey boogie, been watching your videos since 2010/11. Monumentally proud of how far you have come.

The people outside restaurant, smokin some weeeeed!

I remember back in 2014. Me and my Dad went up to Minnesota to see my half sister. It was my first time up there and he wanted me to see the old farm he grew up on when he was a kid, before it was torn down. The place was in ruins and was also overgrown with trees. Earlier this year, it was torn down. I'm glad I got to see it before it was gone forever.

Boogie I’ll rebuild the house for FREE. I live in Fredericksburg va just a hour or so away from there let me rebuild it man please get back to me

I just came back from the third part of the video on storyfire wow. Boogie I've always respected you and you are such an amazing guy. You've helped me through so many tough times and I hope to take some of your experiences with your mother and use them to learn how to better deal with my own father. Thank you so much dude. Been watching for almost 8 years now and I'm so glad I've been here and I'm gonna stay

Helping a friend through a tough time and experience like that, is the definition of a true friend

Boogie's "southern accent" once he heads to his hometown is so heartwarming

I love how the accent comes back when you get in town. Happens to me all the time. Former southerner here. lol

I just watched part 3 on Storyfire and let me tell you people, it's a must watch! The app and the video is free so you literally have no reason not to go watch it. It is so power and moving. I had tears welling up through half of it...thank you Boogie! Now I wanted to comment this on Storyfire, but their comment box only allows a very small amount of characters so I will write my message here. Thank you so much for sharing this entire experience with us. I have got to know you and watch you grow over the years through KZfaq and can't tell you how excited I am for you to start this next chapter in your life and how proud I am of you for overcoming so many demons and continuing to improve not only yourself but all of us who watch your content. You are an inspiration to us all. I really wish I was able to meet you in person when you were in Virginia. Hopefully I will get the chance to meet you in the near future. Can't wait for the next video. All the best, Brandon.

I miss these days before covid 😭

Dude the entrance looks like Resident Evil 7's

A powerful story from a fellow Appalachian. I feel your anger seeing your past in desperation. Doesn't matter what we come from, but what we become.

These are the types of vlogs you need to make more of boogie. Truly incredible to watch

Anyone else notice boogie all of a sudden had a accent when he stepped in the door lol

Despite what you went through in your childhood, what someone did to that house was complete disrespect.

This reminds me of when I entered my great grandma’s abandoned house. She died back in 2010 and I went in her house somewhere in Mexico recently and found old photos and I started feeling sad when I went to the back of the house and saw a beautiful flower garden.

"do you want to keep some, remember where you came from......" "no, ill never forget"

"*My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined*"

Get that table out of there and restore it man! Make something beautiful out of this unfortunate situation.

Thank you for being honest about your past. It's good to let that stuff out, I'm proud of you!

You are an amazing person. You don't know how many people you have helped by doing this, Boogie. ❤️ Thank you. You have a soul that is meant to help others. I think that's why you're here

We’re all here for you boogie don’t feel like a failure I know how I feels to lose things man it’s a tough world out there but we’re all here for you! 🖤

Boogie, I know you feel bad because someone could have used it. It looks like someone did. I guarentee at one point some homeless person stayed there and got at least one night out of the cold. All that damage didn't happen at once and it didn't happen by itself. A person had to do it. That fire in the kitchen could have kept someone warm for a night. Not all the intention was ill. It might not have helped the long run but it might have helped someone survive for a little while. I hope that helps a little. We love you very much, thanks for reading.

Sad that boogie gets instantly demonetized

I just saying these are memories you should take back home. Whatever's there. Their special memories.

Just seen the other video with your mom.. I’m glad I’m not alone when it comes to coming to grave sites and pouring my heart out to my loved one. You’re a good man and have done good in this world, you have given me hope on doing better for my self too, I’m not alone when I say we love you man. Take care and keep going forward.

This video and the house literally looks like the resident evil 7 house lol. I feel like an old crazy man is going to appear and say “welcome to the family son”

I love these personal videos and learning more about you boogie!

This is without a doubt one of my new favorite videos of Boogies. Brought me to tears! Especially the exclusive story fire episode. You all need to go watch that!

I just watched part 3 on StoryFire and wow it shattered my heart I cried the entire time. I love you boogie! You are amazing

Hey, man. I'm glad you're shedding light on this part of the country. I know you were from St. Paul. I lived in Coeburn for a few years and know exactly what it is like. Most people don't know that it is so removed from society and how bad it really is. Thank you for doing this and I'm proud of you for taking this adventure to meet your demons head on.

Am I a bad person for thinking it might be a good thing that he found the house in this shape? He can finally move on from it.

Brilliant series. The best you’ve ever done, completely raw and fascinating. You’ve come far Boogie.

I just watched part 3 on StoryFire and had literal tears rolling down my face. It's so great that you're doing this Boogie.

I wish you had done this series with someone other than Jesse. Despite that, it’s very interesting and emotional to see. You can be really proud of yourself for doing this, I hope you can feel it too. ❤️

Love you Boogie, I hope you got through all this alright and can feel good once it's all done with.

my mom's old house is overgrown and probably needs to be demolished too. She and I never got along. I know there is old stuff there from my past, but i honestly never want to go back to that place again. I just want to cut off all emotional ties I ever had to the place and I'm honestly ashamed it was ever a part of my life. I know people may disagree with that approach but it's just how I feel.

Boogie: it’s my damn fault Jesse: yea Where’s the moral support mate?

15:45 That response really spoke to me, man. Much love, and I hope that you are able to fix it up and make that place a house where someone else can make new memories.

*buys mask to protect from mold* *Leaves nose sticking out of it*

Boogie, you have given a lot to those of us that have followed you for so many years. We will always have your back.

It's kinda sad to see a house (a life) full of memories, photos, and accomplishments just go to ruins :/

"Hey Y'all, this food any good in here" That woman's face at 0:20 haha

Really cool video Boogie!! This is really powerful. I hope you got the closure you needed. Proud of you for doing this man!

Amazing video, Boogie. Thank you so much for sharing these moments with us, I'm certain it can't be easy to re-visit these sites and memories.

Your not a failure boogie, your courageous beyond anything. I'm sorry you had to experience this but we your fans grieve and celebrate with you. God bless you boogie

This video was so raw, I loved having an insight to this side of you. I respect this content 👍🏼

boogie I've been a viewer of you for quite sometime. I have to say and I'm sure I can speak on behalf of most of us your fanbase that I am so proud of you. seeing the transform you have undergone is amazing. you look amazing. thank you taking us with you on this journey. you are a warrior a hardened soldier with a heart of gold. god bless you man keep up everything you are doing.

Honestly...it feels really good seeing you express some anger...not being afraid, I come from an abusive family as well and can relate to most of what you’re feeling.

Hey dude must want to express how awesome this series has been, it's incredible. So insightful and emotional, being a fan of your work and yourself as a person, this was a powerful video man. Sending love from the UK

I always go back to the old houses I used to live in to bring back memories. but it's really sad that the place is a wreck..and we always makes mistakes in our life .but you had the chance to see for yourself.and of what you did will make you stronger .so feel for you!

Man Boogie that Southern accent is THICC as hell in this video. You must've been upset as hell for that to leak out.

3:27 this in july 2019... little did they know.

Just watched Part 3 on StoryFire. Keep your head up! Don't stop what you're doing! I don't know you personally, but man...I'm proud of you! There's nothing like closure. I sat in the room with my dad's body the day before his funeral and it was the best thing I could have ever done. After that, moving on was so much easier. Keep Moving!

When emotion overpowers us we revert to our original accent. We can here that now. Boogie it takes courage to even do this and the heart of a lion to share it.

Bless you, Bless you, Bless you Steven Williams. I had a not so great childhood but this touched my heart like nothing else in a long time.

Boogie this was very brave if you to do, you have my love and support as a fan and I hope this trip gave you closure. Also you still have the land, the house May be beyond repair but you could always tear it down, clear all the plant growth, and sell the land, or build up a new home, one that can house good memories for someone.

Just watched both part 2 and 3 and I just needed to say, Boogie you are a great person and seeing you grow over these years has been amazing and I'm so happy I've been here to see every step. I cant wait to see what comes next! From the bottom of my messed up heart to yours I love ya man

Seeing these abandon houses always legit creep me out .

It's interesting to see your past and your reaction. I can also tell that your accent has changed. Almost like your speaking like you did before you left.

Watched part 3… cried like a baby. I’m not an overweight person, not even a gamer really but I like you boogie. You help so many and you’re very entertaining, keep up the good work and congratulations on how far you’ve come

Props to you for returning to the scene of the crime. That takes a lot. Thanks for sharing this part of the journey with us.

Another adventure in boogies past, this is something to remember!

Need to put the mask over your nose Mr Boogie.

I really like this out of character interaction between you two. You are lucky to have a friend like Jessie and he's lucky to have you.

4 years on, cant believe i didnt see this one. Ive seen every other! This was the most real i've ever seen you and ive been watching your channel since you had 500 subs. Celebrated with you when you hit a thousand. This was The most honest, the most raw i've seen. It was an insight into the man behind the mask. Much respect for your honesty, for your cander and for your bravery to share this. Much love.
