About

8800 Blue Lick Road is the address of a church-turned makeshift warehouse that has been described as a cursed location. The building went viral in October 2020 after a 3D walkthrough of it began circulating online.

Origin

8800 Blue Lick Road is a building located in Louisville, Kentucky.[1] It was formerly a church called Bonaventure Boulevard Church of Christ. In 2014, a man named Troy Curtis was arrested at the location and charged with engaging in organized crime and receiving stolen property. Police described it as being part of a fencing operation that was under investigation since 2010.[2] A 3D virtual tour of the building was posted on real estate website Redfin[1] on August 8th, 2020. On October 15th, a shot was fired inside the location.[3]

Spread

In the early morning of October 26th, 2020, writer Jenny Jaffe tweeted[4] a link to Redfin's tour of the building on Blue Lick Road, saying she had found it in a Facebook group (shown below).

A later tweet[5] from Pat Ashe describing the tour as his "game of the year" received over 18,000 likes and 6,000 retweets in a day (shown below).

Users on ResetEra[6] later posted what appears to be Curtis' eBay account, where over 18,000 items are listed. Eventually, people began posting speedruns of the building with categories such as tub% and 100%. Several news sites reported on the sudden interest in the building's 3D walkthrough.[7][8][9]

A video of Yogscast member Lewis touring the house gained over 40,000 views in less than a day (shown below).[9]

And not a single jumpscare to be found.

I can smell this place. It is not a bad smell, not after a minute, but it is noticeable. The kinda smell that overwhelms you years later, when you hear a melody that reminds you of the place.
You remember the carpet, the shelves next to shelves next to shelves… getting lost, finding the bathtub.

You try to bring up the faces of the people who lived there. Nothing.
After your visit to these friends of the family was over, you only remember how your mother looked kinda at nothing for a minute, before she started the car and drove away wondering if something was wrong. Your father had work. It was a sunday.
Years later, you remember the newspaper clipping you found in your moms living room. "4 arrested in gang related crimes" The faces are blurred, but somehow this makes it easier to tell. It is them.
